DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Design and Objectives
The EVO D/LAB 2026 features a completely revised design, with performance focused squarely on jumps and loops. Its reduced Leading Edge diameter and optimized profile minimize drag. You get cleaner power delivery and enhanced responsiveness with every bar input. The result is an incisive feel that makes committing to big amplitude easier than ever.
Steering and ride feel
The 6-point bridle system stabilizes the kite's tips and refines the feedback you get through the bar. When you're riding, you'll experience precise and direct steering, which is essential for landing clean loops. Depower remains progressive, and power management becomes more intuitive. This helps you maintain control during those critical, committed maneuvers.
D/LAB Construction & Materials
The DUOTONE EVO D/LAB 2026 utilizes Aluula to reduce weight while maintaining the crucial stiffness needed for big jumps. Optimized strut pockets lighten the kite and minimize vibrations, while the recommended inflation pressure of 10 PSI reinforces the frame for stable steering in flight.
Big Air and Looping Performance
When boosting, the profile's stiffness promotes incredible hangtime and a clean exit from the kite. For loops, the kite's responsiveness and neutrality provide precise cues to gauge your rotation. Trick-oriented riders will find a clear, direct response exactly when it's time to send it.
Versatility and wind range
The lightweight design improves take-offs in light wind while remaining stiff enough for strong conditions. This kite is for sessions demanding both power and control, from light freeride to jump-focused sessions. Available sizes range from 6 to 13m² to cover various wind strengths.
Care and Recommendations
Dry your kite in the shade before storage and regularly check the condition of the seams and struts. Always respect the indicated inflation pressure (10 PSI) to preserve the geometry and longevity of your D/LAB and Aluula materials.
