What Duotone has to say:

The Whip SLS is the performance focused Surfboard for Small Waves and Strapless Freestyle in the Duotone range, designed for fast transitions, high responsiveness, and dynamic surfing in the pocket. Shaped by Sky Solbach, this compact and dynamic board excels in small waves and in Strapless Freestyle, delivering a lively and controlled ride in a wide range of conditions.

A hip-squash tail combined with the increased rocker enables ultra-snappy, precise top turns, while thinner rails enhance grip and control, allowing riders to stay locked in through every section. The fast, drive-oriented rocker line works together with a channelled bottom shape to generate rapid acceleration and maintain speed even in weaker surf, always keeping the board reactive and efficient.

The SLS construction provides a strong, lightweight, and highly responsive feel, enhancing both durability and performance. The Innegra Shield reduces vibration and increases durability, ensuring a smoother and more controlled ride in choppy conditions. The Cork Shock Absorber 2.0 improves comfort by softening impacts and reducing fatigue, creating a connected and confidence-inspiring riding experience.
