DUOTONE Kite surf board Wam D/LAB 2022

• Sizes: 5'7 / 5'9
• Discipline: Allrounder - Small to medium waves

The Wam D/LAB is offered in two most popular sizes in the same new shape as the WAM SLS, but in revolutionary new D/LAB construction. D/LAB represents the masterpiece of everything they do at Duotone and this new high end construction centres around the use of a new material - Reflex Memory Foam. The new RMF Shock Absorber in combination with the Innegra Shield offers decisive technical advantages over the Cork Shock Absorber found in SLS range. Firstly, it is lighter, without affecting the overall strength of the board. Secondly, it has memory; if you put a small heel dent in the board, the foam will push the dent out over time, giving you a lighter board that stays looking fresh for longer. D/LAB boards feel more responsive on the water thanks to the reduced weight and the remarkable damping effect that drastically reduces high frequency vibrations, giving these boards a smooth and forgiving feel to inspire your confidence when attacking the lip and landing huge airs. The Wam D/LAB is the ultimate classic surf style weapon for all conditions and the number one choice of Duotone team riders in surf competitions, from big waves to small, it uses the most advanced technologies available to take you to the top step of the podium.

RESPONSIVE FLEX

Using bamboo in Duotone surf boards, they take full advantage of the dynamic qualities of this natural product. Optimized layers and the mix with composite materials help us to construct powerful, agile and versatile surf boards that come with a unique flex – responsive flex!

LIGHT TEAM CONSTRUCTION

Duotone is using a more labor intensive, multi-step vacuum bag process that yields a super strong, lightweight board with a custom, hand sanded finish. The most substantial change to the light team construction, is that Duotone no longer use a full bamboo sandwich. The cork shock absorber, which used to be concealed under the bamboo sandwich, is now clearly visible under the deck skin and allows the deck to flex and absorb shock like a custom PU board with minimal to no heel denting, thanks to the underlying reinforcements and the remarkable memory properties of cork. Pure surf board feel in an ultra light but durable construction!

Two side set screws and no rear tab allow for a wider tolerance of fin fitting and ensure a perfect and tight fit every time whether you’re using high quality composite fins or any stock after market Futures brand fin.
