Product description:

The Duotone Dice SLS 2027 was designed as a truehigh-performance crossover, offering the performance needed for progressive freestyle without giving up the ability to use the kite in other disciplines. This model is for experienced riders who want one sporty kite for practically everything.

Thanks to itsStrong Light Superior (SLS) construction, the kite keeps high stiffness at an optimized weight. This lets you load the edge harder, then precisely release that energy on take-off. The result is powerful pop and the signature slack you'll appreciate both during unhooked tricks and powered freestyle.

For the 2027 season Duotone has modified the strut layout and load distribution, so the Dice SLS is calmer in the air and offers a more distinct feel on the bar. Steering stays fast and direct, but doesn't become nervous - the rider always knows exactly where the kite is.

The Dice SLS also performs very well during kiteloops. Optimized canopy tension near the tips improves control while turning, allowing for dynamic passage through the loop and precise repositioning of the kite after the maneuver. The kite stays stable and predictable even under heavy load.

A big strength of the Dice SLS is its behavior on a wave. Limited canopy movement and well-distributed tension let the kite stay stable on looser lines, providing very good drift and precise positioning while riding down-the-line. Fast turning and effective depower let you react instantly to changes in direction.

The 2027 model also has increased working pressure - 9 PSI for sizes 10 m and smaller, and 8 PSI for 11 m and larger. Higher pressure and optimized force transfer improve the construction's stiffness, profile stability and control under heavy load.

The Dice SLS offers smooth and balanced power delivery, so it also works well for freeride and foiling. Its wide performance range and in-air stability make it a remarkably versatile kite for ambitious riders.

Technical features:

Strong Light Superior (SLS) Construction - High construction stiffness at an optimized weight provides a fast response, efficient energy transfer and dynamic handling.

Powerful Pop & Crisp Slack - The construction lets you load the edge hard and get an explosive pop plus the right amount of slack during freestyle.

Revised Strut Layout - The revised strut layout provides calmer flight, more balanced handling and a clearer feel on the bar.

Optimized Tip Canopy Tension - Optimized canopy tension near the tips improves control during turns, loops and dynamic maneuvers.

Higher Inflation Pressure - 9 PSI in sizes 10 m and smaller and 8 PSI in 11 m and larger increases the construction's stiffness and stability.

Direct & Intuitive Steering - A fast, direct response to bar input lets you keep full control with no nervous kite behavior.

Kiteloop Performance - Dynamic turning, a precise trajectory and a fast return to the right position provide control during aggressive loops.

Freestyle Performance - Powerful pop, controlled slack and stability during powered and unhooked freestyle.

Wave & Drift Performance - Stable drift, fast depower and precise positioning on the wave.

Smooth Power Delivery - Even and predictable power generation during riding, transitions and powerful maneuvers.

Wide Wind Range - A wide usable range lets you ride the Dice SLS in changing conditions and different disciplines.

Foil Performance - A light, reactive construction and good performance in lighter wind mean the kite can also be used for foiling.

The Duotone Dice SLS 2027 is a genuine crossover for ambitious riders. It combines the powerful pop and slack of freestyle, the dynamics of kiteloops, stability and drift on the wave, and the versatility of freeride and foiling. One kite, many possibilities - with no need to pick a single discipline.
