2024 Duotone Ventis Wing

Lightwind/ Freeride

Sizes: 7m / 8m

Description:

The Ventis is our latest range extension for light wind wing foiling! With maximum lift and power packed into a sleek, reduced wing tip design, you'll be flying while others are left grounded. Light wind Wing Foiling had previously required advanced pumping techniques, but the Ventis transforms marginal conditions with active lift that pulls you up and on Foil without the need for excessive pumping. The two side struts retain the rigid frame and wings profile to allow for a reduction of the wing tips, meaning you are now less prone to catch or drag the wing tip when starting or pumping to get on foil. Sizes of 7m and 8m become manageable with this effective tip reduction even for smaller or less experienced riders. The side struts not only enhance handling, they also allow to keep the profile of the canopy all the way towards the tips. This increases lift and power through the entire surface of the wing while still maintaining good canopy tension, flying stability and depower.

Efficiency and performance are at the forefront of the Ventis design, which is why we've incorporated our lightweight 50g ripstop canopy material with focus on thread orientation in each panel, keeping the large canopy area of the wing as light as possible while delivering direct response and performance. The longer carbon front handle on the Ventis enables one-handed riding and adds benefits for handling and mastering maneuvers. The strut profile of the Ventis enhances the ergonomics of the handles, resulting in a more comfortable angle for your hands to be positioned. This allows you to maintain a straighter back arm position, enabling you to enjoy longer, more comfortable sessions on the water. Get out there and challenge the impossible.

REDUCED TIP DESIGN VENTIS
Reduced tip design to minimize catching or dragging a wing tip. Thus, the Ventis 7.0 has the same virtual wingspan compared to the Slick 6.0

The Ventis comes in two constructions - what´s the difference between the Ventis and the Ventis D/LAB?

Of course the D/LAB is lighter and stiffer, which is especially of advantage in very light wind conditions. Also the leading edge diameter is slightly smaller on the D/LAB to reduce drag and soften the ride a bit. The Ventis D/LAB utilizes premium Aluula material throughout the leading edge and struts, which is a high-performance material with a very fast response. Combining the Aluula leading edge and struts with a lightweight 50g ripstop canopy, ensures maximum responsiveness while keeping the wing light and agile.
