Duotone Unit 5.0
Replaced a tired Wasp V2. Great wind range for a pretty flat wing. Love the wide handles and Low drag during tacks. Don’t love the needlessly complicated valve and one pump system. Still, I’ll probably go this way when I’m replacing the other Wasps in my quiver.

Awesome wing
This wing replaced my 3 yrs old slingshot sling wing v2. This wing has so much wind range in comparison. I'm using this 3m in condition where I would normally use my old 4.4m and 3.2m. I also have 4m Dlab, and that replaced my 5.4m old slingshot. I love the handles the most, I can hold it with one hand only and go, or get pulled out of jibes if I'm too slow jist by holding one hand. The wing can also be controlled better using the handles.
