Worthing Watersports, the UK Duotone specialist, says stock for Duotone’s 2026 Wing & Foiling range is landing now and throughout the coming weeks, with the launch adding a second‑generation Float wing, a Float SLS upgrade, and a new mid-length Skybrid aimed at earlier take-offs and more glide. Tony Jones at The SUP Company described the range as “a properly exciting one for UK riders,” highlighting more drift-focused wings, smarter mid-length board choices, and “fresh foil updates aimed at longer glides and easier pumping.”

Mackiteboarding’s product page lists the 2026 Float Wing in sizes 2m, 2.5m, 3m, 3.5m, 4m, 4.5m, 5m and 5.5m with a retail price range shown as Now: $1,029.00 - $1,289.00. The Mackiteboarding table gives wind ranges for each size (for example 3m, 16-32 knots; 5.5m, 8-16 knots), wingspans from 215 cm on the 2m to 351 cm on the 5.5m, and max inflation pressures listed per size from 7.5 PSI to 9.5 PSI. Mackiteboarding emphasises that the Float ships as Wing ONLY, Fusion Boom must be purchased separately, and the product page lists color as Fuzzy Pink and zero reviews at time of posting.

Retail pages and product notes call out construction options: Thesupco labels the SLS build as the premium route, writing, “The SLS version is the ‘strong, light, crisp’ upgrade path — aimed at riders who want even more responsiveness and a more premium feel (especially noticeable in transitions and when you’re flagging the wing).” Worthing Watersports groups Float and Float SLS together and highlights SLS models as lighter and stronger, but neither retailer provides a separate SLS spec sheet in their listings.

Boards are positioned as a clearer progression ladder. Worthing Watersports markets Skybrid as a mid-length that “bridges the gap between compact performance shapes and longer, more efficient platforms,” promising “earlier take-offs, smoother touchdowns and incredible control once up and flying.” The SUP Company frames the board family as lanes: Sky Start for first flights, Sky Free for freeride progression, and Skybrid as the mid-length crossover. Thesupco adds that “Sky Start is the easiest platform Duotone make for learning — big, stable, confidence-inspiring. The DST version is aimed squarely at durability and learner friendliness.”

Inflatable options mirror the hardboard lanes: Thesupco lists Sky Air as a compact inflatable wing board, Skybrid Air as an inflatable mid-length crossover, and Downwinder Air as an inflatable efficiency specialist for earliest take-offs and glide focus. The SUP Company notes the inflatable line suits travel, tight storage and riders wanting “no stress” durability.

Foil updates receive only high-level treatment from retailers: Tony Jones flagged “fresh foil updates aimed at longer glides and easier pumping,” and Worthing Watersports references an Aero Free 2.0 evolution, but no foil geometry, mast lengths or detailed foil specs appear in these retail notes. Mackiteboarding’s Float weight table lists “Weight with Boom” values but also notes Boom NOT Included; the 3.5m entry shows 1.19 kg, an anomalous figure compared with adjacent sizes that warrants confirmation with Duotone.

For UK buyers the practical details are in place: Worthing Watersports lists contact phone 01903 247742, email sales@worthingwatersports.com, and shop opening Thursday to Monday, while The SUP Company has active product listings and direct shop links. Riders should expect stock arrivals through the coming weeks and await Duotone technical sheets to confirm SLS versus standard specs, definitive foil measurements, and full MSRP listings across the new Sky and Downwinder ranges.
