How does it compare?

Versus the Unit SLS and Standard Unit:

At the top of Duotone's lineup, the Unit D/LAB features a full Aluula Gold frame for the lightest weight, highest stiffness, and most responsive feedback. It provides maximum acceleration, efficiency, and drift capability for riders wanting the highest level of material performance.

The Unit SLS sits below the D/LAB, using a trimmed profile with Penta Dacron and an Aluula center panel to balance high performance with value. The standard Unit delivers solid, durable, and accessible performance across all conditions for everyday winging.

Design Features:

• Aluula Gold Leading Edge and Strut - Provides minimal weight and direct response, boosting overall performance and efficiency.
• Fusion Boom & Handle Options - Allows easy setup customization with interchangeable Fusion boom and handle options.
• Reduced Leading Edge Diameter - Minimizes drag and increases top speed for a faster, more efficient wing.
• Optimized Profile - Reduced center depth and increased quarter-span profile improve sheeting angles, providing instant power and smoother transitions.
• Maneuverability - Compact outline across all sizes ensures responsive handling in a wide range of conditions.
• Direct Steering - Wider and stiffer leading edge handle offers precise control, especially when riding waves or down-winding.
• Canopy Stability - A deeper canopy at the quarter-span stabilizes luffing and provides neutral to slightly positive lift during maneuvers.
• MOD3 S Canopy - Delivers direct power, strength, and long-lasting durability across all wind conditions.

Tech Specs:

• Aluula Gold Frame - Ultra-lightweight leading edge and strut material engineered for minimal dynamic weight and structural rigidity.
• MOD3 S Canopy Tech - High-tensile canopy construction designed for enhanced shape stability and direct power distribution.
• Fusion System Interface - Modular mounting attachment compatible with both rigid Fusion handles and the Fusion boom.
