Duotone Slick D/LAB 23

Slick D/LAB 2023.Designer Ken Winner has crafted an exceptionally lightweight wing with instantaneous response by utilizing Aluula in the leading edge and strut, coupled with the unique MOD3 canopy.
The Slick D/LAB excels in every metric with direct power when pumping, superior lift, higher jumps, and quicker rotations.

Thanks to the low stretch character of the higher modulus MOD3 fabric, the wing’s shape and profile remain intact despite changing wind conditions.
During gusts, you’ll experience pure acceleration, allowing you to ride without the need to adjust your hand or riding position.

Compared to standard ripstop fabrics, the MOD3 canopy offers significantly improved durability and longevity, ensuring the wing remains fresh from day one.

The deep profile, refined strut, and wing tips result in maximum lift and provide forgiving and consistent power delivery. The Slick D/LAB exhibits remarkably stable flying behavior at varying riding angles and wind strengths. With well-placed windows on each side of the wing, you’ll have excellent visibility and no blind spots while passing and overtaking other riders.

You’ll be amazed by the lightness and effortless feel of the Slick D/LAB as it gracefully follows your line, guided by the refined front handle.

For optimal performance, pair the Slick D/LAB with our carbon Platinum or Platinum SLS boom.
This combination is your ultimate ticket to unparalleled performance for both Freeride and powerful Freestyle action.

MOD3 WHAT YOU EXPERIENCE

• Increased power
• More direct response
• Enhanced pumping efficiency (enables earlier take-off)
• Improved draft stability
• Increased durability (no wearing out, less prone to breakage)

MOD3 TECHNICAL INFORMATION

• Modulus of MOD3 is twice as high in the warp direction
• 3 times as stretch resistant in the bias direction (7 times less stretchy at lower loads)
• Superior shape holding ability compared to traditional (Kite) canopy (Wing canopies face about twice the load per surface area compared to Kite canopies)

The inclusion of two small battens per side minimizes flutter and drag, enhancing upwind ability and top-end performance.

Setting up the Slick D/LAB is a breeze, and it packs down into a compact size.
The new backpack not only makes packing and carrying your Slick D/LAB a breeze, but it also adds a touch of style to storage.

The window layout has been optimized for improved stretch behavior, weight reduction, and enhanced visibility.

The segmented front tube ensures a rigid center with smooth flex behavior.

The Mini Boom on center strut design offers the best of both worlds. It provides infinite hand placement and easy handling for all types of freeride and freestyle moves, while also offering neutral drift and floating ability akin to a strut wing for effortless surfing and downwinders .
