DETAILED DESCRIPTION
A light and intuitive wing for freefly
The Duotone Float 2026 is designed for those who seek a total sense of freedom on the water. Its neutral and stable behavior offers neutral flight and natural drift, making it ideal for freefly or wave Surf. It delivers smooth power, natural drift, and remarkable lightness, perfect for navigating with finesse in all conditions.
An optimized profile for control
Its re-engineered profile ensures instant power and exemplary stability. The low-sweep Leading Edge maintains forward-oriented traction, offering precise and intuitive steering. Deeper sections at the quarter-wingspan improve lift and depower, making the Float both smooth and responsive in transitions.
Durable construction and featherlight weight
Constructed from 160g Dacron, the Float combines stiffness, lightness, and durability. Its MOD3 S canopy limits deformation and guarantees perfect profile tension. The absence of windows further lightens the overall package, offering a wing that remains stable and lively even in irregular winds.
Fusion Boom: Precision and Comfort
When paired with the Fusion Boom, the Float delivers enhanced precision and comfort. This ergonomic bar system provides direct steering and improved power distribution. You'll experience a more natural grip, making it ideal for seamless transitions between maneuvers or fluid surfing.

FAQ, DUOTONE FLOAT 2026
The Float features a 160g Dacron frame, while the Float SLS is constructed from PentaTX, a material that offers increased stiffness and a lighter weight. Both models share the same MOD3 S canopy. The SLS provides more direct steering and reduced weight.
The Float is designed for riders of all levels who focus on Surf and freefly. If you're looking for natural drift, a wing that truly floats in the waves, and intuitive steering, the Float is your perfect match.
Your ideal size depends on your weight and typical wind conditions. As a general rule, a 3.5-4.0 m² wing is suitable for a 75 kg rider in 15-30 knots. Always consult the wind range chart for precise adaptation.
No, the Float is sold with the wing and storage bag only. The Fusion Boom and Fusion Handles are not included and must be purchased separately as accessories.
The Float is geared towards Surf and freefly riding, featuring pronounced drift. For allround use and as a first wing, the Unit range is more suitable for a beginner.
