Quentin's Feedback

Tester: Quentin Laval · Discipline: freeride kitefoil

An accessible and confidence-inspiring board

The Duotone Pace is designed to inspire confidence from the very first sessions. I found it particularly easy to handle thanks to its balanced shape, which allows for progressive and effortless take-offs. Even during the learning phase, it proves tolerant and enjoyable, making it ideal for riders who want to start or get back into kitefoiling.

A concentration of Duotone technology

With its composite sandwich construction, the board combines stiffness and lightness. The compact shape, with thin rails and a taut outline, optimizes glide and control at high speeds. The double US box makes it compatible with most foils on the market, and the EVA pads ensure excellent grip. The available sizes (3'11, 4'2, 4'6, and 4'10) allow you to choose a version adapted to your size and style.

On-water behavior: stability and fluidity

On the water, the Pace stands out for its fluidity and comfort. I particularly appreciated its directional stability, which remains solid even in committed riding. It easily absorbs touchdowns without hindering progress and maintains good handling, even at high speeds. It's a board that allows you to ride for a long time, without fatigue or loss of pleasure.

Ce qu'il a aimé

  • Easy handling and progressive take-offs.
