With nearly 3 decades of Maui development and Munich engineering DUOTONE has the greatest experience in carbon booms in the industry.
The new DUOTONE-PLATINUM SLS lineup underlines this by being the most feature-packed carbon booms out there. The goal was to create the highest performing booms combined with the best ergonomics, unmatched stiffness and fastest operation.
Product code - 14230-1404
FULL CUSTOM CONSTRUCTION We use 100% highest-grade T800 prepreg carbon and our exclusive SENTEX® resin impregnated with silicon nano-spheres.
SEGMENTED CROSS-SECTION TECHNOLOGY This results in a quantum leap in weight >< stiffness >< durability >< grip-ergonomics/comfort With weights between 1.85 to 3.10 kg (depending on the length) the PLATINUM SLS are the lightest booms on the market (except our own PLATINUM AERO booms :-) The secret of these super-light weights lays in the SEGMENTED CROSS-SECTION TECHNOLOGY. Instead of the usual round cross section the PLATINUM SLS feature a super sophisticated transition of different cross sections:
This results in the new PLATINUM SLS not just been the lightest but also stiffest booms out there. Another advantage of the OVAL TAIL SECTION is the reduced tail weight. Due to the leverage effect this has a tremendous effect on how light the PLATINUM SLS feels in your hands (= sailing weight).
GRIPPING DIAMETER: GRIP COMFORT VS. STIFFNESS With the diameter in the gripping area you are dealing with 2 contradictory facts:
The enormous stiffness generated in the front and back allowed to use smaller diameters than any other boom in the gripping area. Together with the OVAL INSIDE GRIP SECTION this leads to an unmatched gripping comfort and reduced fatigue - sail longer and no more cramped fore-arms!
60 CM EXTENSION RANGE ON ALL BOOMS
DISCIPLINE SPECIFIC BEND-CURVES All our bend-curves are designed to allow your front and back arm to sit in a natural ergonomic position while sailing. This position varies with the type of sail (Wave >< Freeride >< Race) so each boom size needs to be developed accordingly.
iFRONT 2.0 The lightest moulded front-end on earth
PROTECTION GRIP INSERT High density EVA grip inserts on the outside front arch for maximum abrasion resistance during rigging
EXTERNAL TAIL FITTINGS External tail fittings provide 3 main advantages compared to integrated fittings:
INDIVIDUAL TAIL FITTINGS
TRIANGLE BEARING CONSTRUCTION Bearings in-between the rotational front-end and the monocoque carbon body prevent the front-end from „grinding down“ the carbon which ultimately leads to a broken boom.
2 YEAR UNCONDITIONAL WARRANTY We are fully convinced that the PLATINUM SLS booms are virtually indestructible. As a prove of testimony we back this up with our unmatched 2 YEAR UNCONDITIONAL WARRANTY.
