Build a high-performance Duotone D/LAB foil around the way you ride. This package starts with the Crest D/LAB carbon front wing, then lets you choose your mast and your Monobloc tail – a one-piece carbon tail and stabilizer with the fuselage built in. The result is one of the lowest-drag, most responsive foil setups Duotone makes, tuned to your discipline.
How It Works
- Choose your front wing size – Crest D/LAB.
- Choose your mast – AL 3BS, Aero SLS or Slim 2.0 D/LAB. This decides stiffness, drag and budget.
- Choose your Monobloc tail – PX or S. This tunes the foil for winging and speed or for swell riding.
Use the charts below to compare the options in each step. Sizes are chosen when you select each product.
Step 1: Front Wing
Every build uses the Duotone Crest D/LAB front wing, a high-modulus carbon wing with a playful outline and upturned tips (aspect ratio approx. 8.8–9.3). It turns instantly and intuitively, re-enters smoothly after tip breaches and airs, and pumps efficiently between waves with a forgiving stall speed. It's built for prone foiling, carving on a wing, and foil assist from wind swell to mid-size waves. Smaller sizes are faster and more agile; larger sizes give more lift for heavier riders and smaller, slower waves.
Step 2: Mast Comparison
| AL 3BS | Aero SLS | Slim 2.0 D/LAB | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rider level | Beginner to advanced | Intermediate to advanced | Advanced |
| Construction | High-grade aluminum, Helicoil threads | Prepreg carbon | One-piece high-modulus carbon |
| Stiffness | Stiff and direct for an aluminum mast | Extra stiff in bending and torsion, even with large-span wings | Highest – Duotone's stiffest and lightest mast |
| Drag | Low | Lower – sleek 18.2 mm profile | Lowest – tapered profile, drag-optimized base plate and high ventilation resistance |
| Lengths | 60 / 75 / 82 / 90 cm | 75 / 82 / 90 cm | 76 / 84 / 94 cm |
| Choose it if | You want the most affordable, durable mast | You want a clear carbon upgrade without going top-tier | You want to match the Crest D/LAB with maximum stiffness and speed |
Step 3: Monobloc Tail Comparison
| Monobloc PX D/LAB | Monobloc S D/LAB | |
|---|---|---|
| Focus | Wing foiling and foil assist | Swell-powered riding |
| Feel | Accurate, responsive turning with lift comparable to larger screw-on stabilizers | Fluid, smooth turning and clean lines down the swell |
| Strength | Lowest drag in the range for high-speed winging | Balance of agility and control from its sweet-spot fuselage length |
| Disciplines | Wing, foil assist | Prone, downwind, strapless wing |
| Options | 37 cm / 160 or 40 cm / 145 | 40 cm / 160 |
| Choose it if | You mostly ride with a wing or kite | You mostly ride prone or downwind |
Not Sure Which to Pick?
Wing and foil assist: Crest D/LAB + Slim 2.0 D/LAB or Aero SLS mast + Monobloc PX.
Prone and downwind: Crest D/LAB + Slim 2.0 D/LAB (76 cm) + Monobloc S.
Best value: Crest D/LAB + AL 3BS mast + the Monobloc tail that suits your discipline.
