Whip D/LAB Details:
The Whip D/LAB is one of the bestsellers in the Duotone Surfboard range for years, designed for high-performance riding in small to medium waves and Strapless Freestyle. Shaped by Sky Solbach in collaboration with the Duotone Surf Team, this compact and reactive D/LAB board delivers explosive responsiveness, tight turns, and outstanding speed generation in weaker conditions.
A hip-squash tail combined with an increased rocker enables ultra-snappy, controlled top turns, while thinner rails enhance grip and precision in critical sections. The fast, drive-oriented rocker line works together with a channeled bottom shape to generate rapid acceleration and maintain speed, even in soft or underpowered waves. In demanding conditions, Innegra reinforcement reduces vibration and improves durability, creating a smoother and more stable ride. The RMF (Reflex Memory Foam) Shock Absorber 3.0 further enhances comfort by absorbing impacts and reducing chatter. Combined with a lightweight Carbon construction, the Whip D/LAB delivers instant feedback, maximum sensitivity, and razor-sharp control for modern, progressive wave riding.
Designed for riders who want to push Strapless Freestyle and surf small to medium waves, the Whip D/LAB offers a unique combination of speed, precision, and dynamic handling.
