Duotone Voyage Kiteboard
A brand-new board in the Duotone line-up, the Voyage is a board that many of you have been asking for and finally, after years of testing and perfecting the shape and design, the first split board in the range has arrived!
Many split boards struggle with two main issues, flex, and the physical act of putting it together. The Voyage overcomes these by using an M-Spine connection that interweaves the two halves of the board, so they act as one when connected. You only need two pins to put the board together (no complicated screws or bolts you can lose in the sand), and the pins are connected to the board, so you can’t lose them during the assembly process; the icing on the cake, and what makes the Voyage so unique is the design itself.
Using the fantastic Select as a starting point, the board has incredible DNA embedded into it. The board is designed for freeride and big air, with a comfortable ride and easy flex characteristics. It's smooth through the chop and fantastic at boosting into the air. The tips have been tuned for flex and channels added to offer grip and a better ride when the ocean is choppy. Easy to assemble, engaging to ride, ideal for travel but most of all, incredible for freeride and big air, the Voyage is a split board like no other.
FREERIDE BOARDS
Freeride boards are the all-rounders among the Twintips. They usually have a soft flex and a slight rocker. As the name suggests, these boards are especially good for free-riding. This means that, if you like cruising back and forth and making a few manoeuvres or jumps, then these boards are ideal for you.
WHAT SHOULD I BE AWARE OF WHEN CHOOSING THE SIZE OF A TWINTIP?
Larger boards offer more lift and are more forgiving of mistakes than smaller boards, which is why large boards are especially suitable for little wind and beginners.
The longer a board is, the more stable it is in the water. Shorter boards, on the other hand, are more amenable to turning.
What matters more, however, is the width of the board, since even small changes can have a major impact on the overall surface. Wide boards start to plane sooner, have better upwind performances and offer a better pop. However, they are more difficult to control than narrow boards when you're over-powered. Narrow boards are also faster and lighter.
Ideal Travel Board
With space at a premium on so many flights these days, the voyage can be split in half by simply removing two pins, saving you space and money when you travel.
M-Spine
The m-spine connection is incredibly secure and durable; it also helps with the flex throughout the board and makes the voyage extremely responsive.
Select Outline
The voyage has been designed around the incredibly successful shape of the select; the premium freeride board in the range.
Tip Channels
These help the board track in choppy conditions and reduce some of the chatter as you ride across the water.
Soft Tips
These absorb the chop and lead to a smooth ride no matter the water state.
Light Woodcore
To keep the board's weight down, a light woodcore is used; this has excellent flex characteristics and makes the ride very comfortable.
