Description

Our most advanced front wings to date! In search of reducing the drag and weight of our foils to a minimum, we decided to merge the front wing and front half of the fuselage together. This eliminates any compromise in terms of shaping the front wing to fit our fuselage front wing mount. It also allows us to remove the three bolts which are necessary to fix our "bolt on" SLS front wings on our fuselages, reducing the drag and weight even more. 

The Carve 2.0 D/LAB, same as the SLS variant, are quite different to our previous Carve range. They feel a lot less draggy and way looser in terms of roll, allowing the rider to do heel side to toe side turns way more naturally. The top end speed has also been increased thanks to a thinner profile towards the wing tips and the higher aspect ratio allows the Carve 2.0 D/LAB to glide and pump much better than its predecessor.

The Carve 2.0 D/LAB range is based on our new Carve 2.0 SLS range but with a few little tweaks. Compared to the SLS range, the aspect ratio is slightly lower and the profile a bit thinner and faster, to allow these wings to be pushed to higher speeds, whether it is going down fast waves, throwing the most technical Freestyle tricks or even using them for Wing Foil or Kite Foil racing.

The D/LAB range also introduces two smaller sizes, the 650 and 500, but doesn’t include the bigger 1430 found in the SLS range. Two carbon tail options in 37cm and 43cm – respectively matching the lengths of our 60cm and 66cm AL 3BS fuselages – complete the D/LAB glider for either a loose and playful character, or higher control at top speeds.

If you want the ultimate performance, the Carve 2.0 D/LAB is the choice for any advanced to top level riders!

SPECIFIC SIZE INFORMATION

Our smallest and most radical front wings. The Aero Carve 2.0 D/LAB 500 is targeted to kids/light riders or experienced ones wanting to tackle big fast waves on their wings or kitefoil at Mach 2 speeds. Tweaked to maintain a good level of control when going full speed when paired with the 43cm tail, or to be super turny when used with the 37cm tail. Ideally paired with the 165 P stabilizer and +0.3 deg shim.

The second smallest wing in our range, targeted to kids/lighter riders or experienced ones looking for extra speed, whether it is to tackle bigger waves, freestyle on the wing or challenge your friends on a kitefoil race. Rig it with 37 tail for maximum manoeuvrability in the waves or pick the 43 tail for more control at high speed. Ideally paired with the 165 P stabilizer and +0.3 deg shim.

The Aero Carve 2.0 D/LAB 850 has it all – it’s got instant turning and response in the waves, exciting speeds for both winging and kite foiling, incredible pop for Freestyle and the glide and low drag efficiency to make it through flat sections. This is the one wing to have in your quiver!

The biggest wing in our D/Lab family. Advanced riders will choose this wing for waveriding in small to medium waves and freestylers will love it in light to medium wind conditions. Best suited to heavy kitefoilers or very light conditions, the 1100 D/Lab is a great allrounder that feels slippery for it size and easy to use. It can also be used for prone surfing, where its turning ability is only matched by the smaller Carve 2.0’s, although realistically it will not pump as well as our other higher aspect front wings.

Fast and Agile

This is my new favourite foil, having used the previous carve model (in the 1250cm2 size) this new model is noticeably faster. the glide and pumpability are improved whilst keeping the low stall speed which I think makes this foil more enjoyable than the higher aspect foils such as the glide. It also has great roll characteristics, making is very agile and also doubles up as a kite foil. I often foil on the Adur which is gusty, the added glide and efficiency really helps to carry speed through the lulls.

The quality of the foil is excellent as you would expect from Duotone, the correct torque values are printed onto the foil which is a nice touch.
