COMPARISON: EVO D/LAB 2027 VS EVO SLS 2027
| Feature | Evo D/LAB 2027 | Evo SLS 2027 |
|---|---|---|
| Construction | Aluula D/TX (3 struts) | Strong Light Superior (SLS) |
| Inflation pressure | 10 PSI | 8 - 9 PSI |
| Disciplines | Freeride / Freestyle / Big Air | Freeride / Freestyle |
| Sizes | 6 to 13 m² | 5 to 13 m² |
| Wind range (10 m²) | 11 - 33 knots | 12 - 32 knots |
| Wind range (8 m²) | 15 - 37 knots | 16 - 36 knots |
The key difference: the Evo D/LAB uses Aluula D/TX construction (high pressure at 10 PSI) for maximum stiffness and a wider wind range. The Evo SLS is built with Strong Light Superior construction (8-9 PSI). Both share the same Freeride and Freestyle DNA, but the Evo D/LAB also excels as a dedicated Big Air machine.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
3-Strut Aluula D/TX Construction
At the heart of the Evo D/LAB, the three-strut Aluula D/TX construction forms the lightest and most advanced airframe in the Duotone lineup. Every movement is livelier, faster, and more precise. The kite reacts instantly to your input, offering an unmatched level of connection and control for sending huge jumps, carving waves, throwing aggressive loops, or linking technical freestyle tricks.
Big Air: Explosive Lift and Exceptional Hangtime
The Evo D/LAB truly excels at high-performance Freeride and Big Air. Its refined aerodynamic profile, combined with the stiff Aluula D/TX airframe, generates explosive vertical lift for effortless take-offs and incredible hangtime with smooth, controlled landings. The kite offers intuitive timing for maximum airtime and precise handling throughout the entire jump.
Huge Wind Range and Top-End Stability
One of the most impressive features of the Evo D/LAB is its massive wind range and excellent top-end stability. The refined profile tension and advanced airframe stiffness keep the kite calm and predictable even when overpowered, giving you confidence and control in strong winds and gusts.
Low-End Power, Upwind Performance, and Total Versatility
At the same time, the highly efficient Aluula D/TX airframe generates remarkable low-end power and quick acceleration, getting you riding earlier and maintaining efficiency in light wind without sacrificing agility or responsiveness. The upwind drive is exceptional: the clean canopy profile and forward-flying characteristics let you drive upwind effortlessly while maintaining speed, line tension, and perfect positioning in the window. The Evo D/LAB is not a single-discipline kite; it's the ultimate high-performance machine in the Duotone lineup, excelling in Freestyle, Freeride, Wave, loops, and Big Air.
