Product description:
Evo D/LAB has for years been the top version of one of Duotone's most versatile kites. For the 2027 season the model received another major update - for the first time it features Aluula D/TX construction, known from the brand's most advanced kites. The three-strut frame is exceptionally light and stiff, making the kite respond almost instantly to bar input and change direction much faster.

The new material and refined profile make the Evo D/LAB 2027 noticeably more direct and dynamic, while retaining the easy handling Evo is known for. Reduced bar pressure makes steering lighter and more forgiving, which you'll appreciate both during freeride and during fast downloops, wave riding or dynamic transitions.

The refined aerodynamic profile builds tension quickly and efficiently converts energy into vertical lift. Take-off is strong and predictable, and in the air the Evo D/LAB offers great hangtime and full control during board-offs, rotations and other technical maneuvers. During kiteloops the kite moves smoothly through the loop and quickly returns to the position overhead, ensuring a controlled landing.

One of the biggest advantages of the new version is a huge wind range and improved stability at the top end. The stiff Aluula D/TX frame and a properly tensioned profile let the canopy hold its shape even in very strong, gusty wind. At the same time, the lightweight construction provides very good low-end performance, quick acceleration and easy planing in lighter wind.

The Evo D/LAB 2027 flies great upwind, holds steady line tension and stays responsive even as conditions start to deteriorate. This makes it a truly versatile kite that isn't limited to a single discipline - it performs in freeride, Big Air, freestyle, wave, loops and foiling.

Technical features:
Aluula D/TX Construction - Duotone's most advanced frame construction, using ultralight and exceptionally stiff materials. Provides faster response, greater stability and even better efficiency.

3-Strut Design - A lightweight construction that reduces the kite's weight, improves agility and keeps a dynamic character across a wide range of conditions.

Ultra-Direct Steering - Very fast response to bar input and precise control during jumps, loops, wave riding and freestyle.

Refined Profile Tuning - A refined profile provides quicker tension build-up, more vertical lift and a smoother response during turns.

Explosive Vertical Lift - A strong, predictable take-off providing high jumps and long hangtime.

Dynamic Kiteloops - A smooth, fast rotation of the kite through the loop and efficient return to the position overhead.

Improved Top-End Stability - A stiff frame and optimized profile maintain full control in strong, gusty wind.

Wide Wind Range - A very wide operating range enabling comfortable riding in both light and strong wind.

Exceptional Low-End - A lightweight construction provides quick acceleration and easy planing in lighter wind.

Light Steering Pressure - Lower bar forces make the kite more forgiving and easier to position during downloops, freeride and wave riding.

Excellent Upwind Performance - An efficient profile and fast forward flight make it easy to point upwind while maintaining high speed.

All-Round High Performance - A versatile character lets the kite be used in Big Air, freeride, freestyle, wave, foiling and during kiteloops.

The Duotone Evo D/LAB 2027 is the most advanced Evo in history - a combination of powerful lift, huge hangtime, direct steering and exceptional stability. It's a single kite for riders who want maximum performance without being limited to one particular riding style.
