Duotone Skybrid D/LAB 2027
Ultra-light high-performance foil board for freeride, freefly and parawing sessions.
Beyond Imagination – The Ultimate Skybrid D/LAB
The Duotone Skybrid D/LAB 2027 is built for riders who want the most advanced, lightest and most responsive foil board in the Duotone range. Designed for freeride, freefly, lightwind foiling, small waves and parawing, the Skybrid D/LAB combines compact performance with enough volume and stability for versatile everyday use.
Thanks to its premium Hollow Shell Composite Construction, the Skybrid D/LAB delivers extremely low weight, excellent stiffness and a direct riding feel. The board reacts quickly under your feet, pumps efficiently onto the foil and feels close to a prone board while still offering the buoyancy needed for wing and parawing use.

Ultra-Light Hollow Shell Composite Construction
The D/LAB construction sets a new benchmark for weight reduction and stiffness. Compared to conventional full-volume foil boards, the Skybrid D/LAB offers a dramatically lighter and more responsive feel. This reduced swing weight makes pumping, turning and linking bumps feel easier, faster and more natural.
Average board weights range from only around 3.38 kg for the 5'5" / 60 L to approximately 4.08 kg for the 6'1" / 100 L, depending on size.
Early Take-Off, Smooth Touch-Downs and Direct Control
The updated Skybrid D/LAB shape features a reduced bottom surface, optimized rocker and finely tuned rail profile. This helps the board release earlier, pump more efficiently and glide onto the foil with less effort — even in marginal wind or slower conditions.
Increased rail bevels and a refined bottom shape make touch-downs smoother and more forgiving. Instead of slowing down abruptly, the board keeps moving cleanly, helping you maintain speed and flow through turns, pumps and transitions.
Designed for Freeride, Freefly and Parawing
Whether you are cruising in light wind, connecting bumps downwind, riding small waves or exploring parawing sessions, the Skybrid D/LAB gives you a perfect mix of glide, control and agility. The wider standing area supports an offset stance for strapless riding, while the footstrap options allow a more locked-in setup for high-speed freeride control.
