DUOTONE Kiteboard twintip Jaime 2023

• Sizes: 133 / 136 / 139 / 142
• Discipline: Freestyle

The freestyle board that started a revolution, the Jaime hit the market back in 2005 and forever changed the way we thought about kiteboards. Fast forward 17 years, and it’s still turning heads and leading the charge in terms of performance. 2023 sees many new features that increase the amount of fun you can have on the water. The new Double Rocker Line Concept and angled fins give you limitless grip on the water, great for blasting upwind but even better for stomping take-offs and getting massive air. There is also a new Double Diffusor Bottom; this helps to break the surface tension of the water when you land your tricks. In terms of construction, the board features a Carbon Web and a new Torsion Flex Cap, both elements combine to improve the control and responsiveness on the water, leading to a more dynamic ride. The Jaime may have a lineage that is older than some GKA world champions, but the 2023 model is brand new and waiting to blast you into action!

Tech features

PREMIUM CONSTRUCTION

The Premium Construction boards Jaime, Select and Soleil feature Carbon Beams, where parts of the glass fibre are being replaced by unidirectional carbon beams to noticeably improve the boards’ performance. This results in a faster and even more progressive flex for better pop and reduced weight.

CARBON WEB

The use of Carbon Web is an important improvement from 2020 especially for competition boards like the Duotone Team Series and the Duotone Jaime. It offers the rider more torsional stiffness, therefore offering good pop and very precise edge control. Carbon Web is used to build light, yet very robust and durable boards, without losing any of the dynamic response needed for Freestyle and Wakestyle maneuvers. A great compromise for Freestyle boards at a lower price point, without compromising performance!

GRAB RAILS

Grab Rails for easier board off manoeuvres and comfortable general riding.

TORSION FLEX

The special shape of the 3D cap allows torsion of the long axis of the board. This gives them more grip on the heel-side edge, rich and smooth landings, a direct drive and better upwind performance. Invented by Duotone.

MEDIUM FLEX

The Medium Flex boards combine competition performance with every day comfort. Precise adjusted materials offer control, power and comfort in just the right way to feel good in every possible riding condition.

ANGLED FINS

This year the fins on the Jamie have been angled to improve grip in the water for better upwind performance, improved pop and higher jumps.

DOUBLE ROCKER LINE CONCEPT

The all-new Double Rocker Line Concept ensures huge amounts of grip through the water, leading to impressive pop and big air.
