Design and Ecology
The 2024 Slick Concept Blue features a white canopy with discreet logos, minimizing graphic printing. This choice reflects a commitment to reducing its ecological footprint. You get water and energy-efficient production, bio-sourced bladders, and recycled plastic components.
Durability and Comfort
MOD3 fabric significantly improves the wing's durability. You won't worry about deformation over time; the 2024 Slick maintains its stiffness for a long lifespan. Improved Freefly handles offer a more comfortable grip, and the Platinum boom, lightweight and easy to install, provides stability while riding.
Wave and Freestyle Adaptability
The Slick Concept Blue excels in freeride, and it holds its own in waves, though purists might prefer the Unit for that style. This wing remains stable and compact. It is suitable for challenging conditions. It delivers strong jumping performance and maintains traction during aerial maneuvers. Compared to older versions, you'll notice a clear improvement in stability in gusty wind.
Sizes and Prices
The wing is available in 8 sizes, from 3 m² to 6.5 m². The 2024 price ranged between €969 and €1,149 depending on the size, slightly higher than the classic version. This extra cost is justified by the ecological improvements and quality of materials.
Joel's Feedback
Joel
Flat session in La Baule | Wing tested with Benjamin from Wing LatitudeConditions: La Baule, flat water, gusty conditions
Session Impressions
Joel had a great session in La Baule on super flat water. The joy with this new Slick Blue Concept is clear: it's very pleasant to ride, pumping is easy, and Joel can sheet in more easily than with his other wing with rigid handles. In gusts, there's no discomfort. The only minor drawback is that the deflation and packing technique into the bag is different at the end of the session. Joel thanks Benjamin from Wing Latitude school for the loan. The wing is now part of his quiver, in eco mode for a bit more respect for the environment.
✅ Key Feedback
- Easy pumping and more natural sheeting than with rigid handles.
- Stable in gusts, with no discomfort.
- MOD3 provides durable stiffness, preventing deformation.
- The Platinum Boom is comfortable and stable when riding.
- Great freeride/freestyle versatility, and decent in waves.
Who is it for?
✅ The Slick Concept Blue is for you if…
- You're looking for a versatile freeride/freestyle wing.
- An eco-responsible approach resonates with you.
- You want easy pumping and comfortable steering.
- You ride in varied conditions, including gusty ones.
- You appreciate the comfort of the mini boom.
Think twice if…
- You want a wing specifically designed for waves (we recommend the Unit instead).
- You insist on a wide choice of colors.
- You're looking for a model that's still in the current catalog (the Slick is replaced by the Unit range for 2025-2026).
Verdict
The Duotone Slick Concept Blue 2024 remains an excellent choice for riders who want to combine performance with ecological commitment. Its MOD3 fabric ensures durability that few wings offer in this price range. The freeride/freestyle versatility lets you ride in all conditions. While the Slick is now replaced by Duotone's Unit range, feedback from Hadou and Joel confirms its quality for second-hand or clearance purchases.
