Designed for everyone caught up in the parawing craze.\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe Paradox SLS was developed in parallel with our Stash 2026 Parawing. That’s because expanding the range of applications for modern parawings isn’t just about improvements to the Wing itself—the board plays a crucial role. With a clear focus on takeoff, pumping efficiency, and playful, fluid turns, this shape was developed as the ultimate downwind weapon.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe slim, surf-inspired outline, the step tail, and the beveled edges reduce the underwater hull area and ensure good displacement. This allows the Foil to be pumped even while the board is still on the water’s surface.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe result is significantly improved take-off efficiency, allowing you to get up on the Foil with less power on the Wing. The flat rocker and relatively deep front foot position make pumping between sets particularly efficient, while the reduced thickness with a lowered standing area ensures plenty of control and a direct riding feel in turns.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eEquipped with inserts for only one front foot strap* and built using our lightweight Biax carbon construction, swing weight remains minimal and responsiveness is maximized.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe new DUOTONE Paradox SLS is the ultimate toy for attacking swell waves with your parawing and linking them effortlessly. Thanks to its surf-like character, it’s also suitable for prone foiling, Foil assist sessions, or advanced freefly Wing foiling.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e*Footstraps not included.

In comparison, the Skybrid offers more controlled handling at higher speeds with Wing.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e+ \u003cstrong\u003eReduced underwater hull\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003e(more sharply angled edges, pointier nose, stepped tail):\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThanks to the reduced surface area of the hull, the \u003cstrong\u003eParadox\u003c\/strong\u003e SLS can be pumped out of the water more actively and efficiently using your legs. In contrast, the Skybrid’s wider hull offers greater stability and more forgiving handling.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e+ \u003cstrong\u003eMore agile and maneuverable\u003c\/strong\u003e than the Skybrid, making it the more surf-oriented choice for advanced riders.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e+ \u003cstrong\u003eLonger, especially in the larger models:\u003c\/strong\u003e More glide for an earlier takeoff with the Parawing. The smaller models are of comparable length and are therefore better suited for advanced riders or windier conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e+ \u003cstrong\u003eLighter construction\u003c\/strong\u003e (similar to the Crush\/Midfish) and only offers an option for a front-foot strap; not suitable for jumps. The Skybrid, on the other hand, can be used for jumps and ridden with both feet in the straps.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eAll Parawing riders, as well as Wing foilers with advanced skills who ride their turns in small waves or swell (preferably strapless)—will love the Paradox SLS.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eWing Foilers\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003ewho like to go faster, ride with footstraps, or want to jump (except for the Skybrid D\/LAB) will benefit from the Skybrid’s greater stability and good control at higher speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePARADOX SLS vs. MIDFISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ql-cursor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe Midfish—our dedicated Foil assist board—is also a great option for parawings—especially in windy conditions—and offers plenty of control in turns.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe Paradox SLS, on the other hand, reaches the Foil much earlier than the wider Midfish. This allows you to ride with less pressure on the wing, making parawingen more efficient. For this very reason, the Paradox SLS is also very well suited for downwind sessions with the Foil Assist, as takeoff is quite smooth and thus energy-efficient for longer runs.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eKey Features: \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"description\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"description__headline\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEarly Take-Off\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"richtext description__rich-text\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003cdiv style=\"--richtext-max-lines: 6;\" class=\"richtext__text-container\"\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eMaximum pumping efficiency—for exceptionally early takeoffs with the Parawing.\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"description\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"description__headline\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEfficient Pumping\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"richtext description__rich-text\"\u003e \u003cdiv style=\"--richtext-max-lines: 6;\" class=\"richtext__text-container\"\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eLow rocker and the correspondingly low front foot position ensure particularly efficient pumping between swell waves.\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"description\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"description__headline\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLow Swing Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"richtext description__rich-text\"\u003e \u003cdiv style=\"--richtext-max-lines: 6;\" class=\"richtext__text-container\"\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eThe reduced nose and tail sections, combined with the lightweight construction, ensure maximum responsiveness. \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"description\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"description__headline\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eControl in Turns\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"richtext description__rich-text\"\u003e \u003cdiv style=\"--richtext-max-lines: 6;\" class=\"richtext__text-container\"\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eA thin, lowered deck with a wide standing area provides control in turns and a direct feel for the Foil.\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"description\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"description__headline\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVersatile\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"richtext description__rich-text\"\u003e \u003cdiv style=\"--richtext-max-lines: 6;\" class=\"richtext__text-container\"\u003e \u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eIdeal as a parawing setup, the Paradox SLS also excels at Wing, Foil assist, and even as an entry point into prone foiling—perfectly suited for a variety of riding styles and disciplines.\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Duotone","offers":[{"title":"5'1\"","offer_id":53352033485067,"sku":"9010583318868","price":1849.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5'5\"","offer_id":53352035909899,"sku":"9010583318875","price":1949.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5'9\"","offer_id":53352035942667,"sku":"9010583318882","price":2049.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"6'2\"","offer_id":53352035975435,"sku":"9010583318905","price":2049.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"6'7\"","offer_id":53352036008203,"sku":"9010583318899","price":2099.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0610\/6166\/0886\/files\/windsurfshop-windsurfing-windsurf-wingfoilshop-wingfoiling-wingfoil-shop-duotone-wingfoil-foiling--42260-3619_1_093dce02-d802-48c9-915f-c62c7314b5a7.jpg?v=1790067475","url":"https:\/\/windlounge.de\/en\/products\/duotone-sky-start","provider":"Wind Lounge","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
