Duotone has revised its unit models
The 2026 version of the Allroundwings Duotone Unit has been modified by the designers in terms of the profile and some details.

The Unit model (HERE is a test) has been one of the manufacturer Duotone's most popular models for years, as it has been developed for a large target group. The 2026 version of the Unit also aims to fulfil this all-round requirement, but Duotone has nevertheless made a few changes to the model. The most important of these concerns the profile: the new Unit has been cut flatter in the centre area, i.e. where the strut sits. The model now has a little more belly at the sides of the strut. The aim: more stable flight behaviour in a straight line, more neutrality and a more responsive ride in waves and manoeuvres. The manufacturer has also modified the design of the front handle, which should now guarantee better contact with the wing when drifting.

As in the past, there are once again several variants of the unit: in addition to the standard model, the Unit SLS The SLS is also available in a version in which the centre section of the front tube is made of high-strength and rigid Aluula material. The SLS is also available in a Concept Blue variant, which consists partly of recycled material and largely dispenses with coloured material.

The E/LAB-The D/LAB version of the Unit should primarily appeal to performance fans. Thanks to its construction from Aluula material, the Unit E/LAB should play in a different league in terms of weight and profile stiffness. The variable grip concept has been retained for all variants of the Duotone Unit - the wings can all be ridden with rigid grips as well as with a continuous boom.
