Includes: kite and bag
FREESTYLE / WAVE
The new Dice SLS defines versatility with a more refined feel and improved performance across the range. For 2024 the radius arc of the kite has been optimised, improving the flying characteristics; 5m and 6m have also been added to the range, perfect for lighter riders, loops and riding in waves when it’s nuking. The kite has been designed for kiters looking to maximise every session, offering unparalleled performance across a wide range of disciplines. The SLS construction significantly reduces the overall weight while providing a stiffer airframe that enhances precise handling. The jumping capabilities of the Dice SLS have been improved too, delivering an immensely powerful lift during take-off and offering massive hangtime that will leave you soaring through the air. In addition, the bar feeling is remarkably direct, and the kite's impressive turning speed ensures you receive ample feedback and maintain total control throughout your ride.
When it comes to kite loops, the Dice SLS unleashes plenty of power; this power is easily controlled at the bar, allowing you to pull huge mega loops or smaller, faster ones. The reduced weight of the kite also enhances its unhooked capabilities, enabling it to remain suspended in the air for extended periods, giving you more time to perform the latest freestyle tricks. In the waves, the Dice SLS exhibits improved responsiveness, enabling you to effortlessly navigate through the most challenging sections and conquer even the most substantial waves. With its exceptional versatility, the Dice SLS is a fantastic one-kite quiver, ensuring you extract the maximum potential from every session. So, get ready to redefine your kiteboarding experience with the Dice SLS!
Powerful Lift
The Dice SLS delivers incredible jumping performances with a strong pull off the water and powerful loops.
Precise Steering
Control has been at the heart of the Dice SLS since its inception; this allows the kite to perform in many disciplines, from big air, freestyle, to waves, and inspires confidence every session.
Excellent Unhooked Performance
The kite has been designed to offer excellent unhooked performance with a good amount of power delay after you pop, allowing you to perform the latest freestyle tricks with ease.
SLS Construction
The SLS construction helps reduce the overall weight of the kite and improves performance materials like Penta TX and Trinity TX, making the kite up to 15% lighter while offering excellent durability.
Pulley Less Bridle System
The Pulley-less bridle system offers a more dynamic and direct feel to the kite and a longer-lasting and more durable bridle for harsh use.
Multiple Tip Tuning Options
Tune the kite to your riding style, increase the turning speed or slow it down, increase or decrease the bar pressure, and fly the kite how you want to fly it.
Penta TX Frame Construction
Penta TX, the guarantee for a sportier, more precise and crisper feel of the kite, achieved by 15% less overall weight and a five times higher tear resistance. Penta TX replaces Dacron and is showing 50% less elongation compared to standard Dacron. Penta TX is a quite stiff material, resulting in a high structural stiffness, especially recognizable in strong wind conditions, leading to less deformation of the overall structure of the kite. It's responsible for a very precise timing when edging, releasing the edge and all steering impulses - the precise and reliable steering of a racing car. Penta TX is used in the leading edge and the center strut.
Trinity TX
Teijin is the world’s leading supplier of polyester fabrics and sail materials to marine sports. The combined creative power of Duotone saw the formulation of TRINITY TX. Exclusive to Duotone, TRINITY TX is a 3x2 canopy material, which has proven to be far superior to other canopy materials in terms of durability and dynamic performance.
The 3x2 yarn combination has proven to be the best solution in performance as well as durability, overall superior to any 2x2 or 4x4 yarn solutions. TRINITY TX. Made to stand the test of time.
Heavy Duty Leading Edge Closing Seam
The leading edges of all kites are extremely durable due to a special heavy duty closing seam. The Dacron material at the leading edge is reinforced with a self sticky Insignia Tape and double stitched additionally. The Heavy Duty Leading Edge Closing Seam is resistant to very high tensions and diagonal forces.
Fusion Strut
This construction allows for a controlled distribution of forces between strut and leading edge. Struts are 100% connected to the leading edge with a flexible Dyneema line, which promotes higher canopy tension and a clean profile.
Anti Snag
The Anti Snag webbing is preventing the lines from tangling around the tip of the kite. Waterstarts are made easier and safety is increased.
Modern Trailing Edge Design
A narrower trailing edge with a lighter combination of materials to reduce wear and to create a slicker kite profile.
Load Distribution Panels
As kite geometry improves, the canopy must continue to resist increasing forces. To spread these forces, Load-Distribution-Panels are used, holding the kite’s shape even under the most extreme loads. In practice this gives a smoother and more consistent performance from the kite in any riding situation.
Double-V Pigtails
These pigtails distribute the load of the line connections to the kite, minimizing the risk of fatigue, making the kite less prone to distortion and helps it to steer more smoothly.
Kook Proof Connectors
The kook proof line connection points prevent accidents by guaranteeing that you cannot accidentally connect your lines incorrectly when rigging your kite.
