DUOTONE 2023 E_PACE
Duotone have just released details of their 2023 E_PACE which is unchanged for this season!
The E_PACE is the perfect freeride sail for all waters and conditions, combining handling and rigging advantages with a crisp, direct feel and harmonious, sparkling power delivery. Offering lot of fun, confidence, control and wonderfully easy windsurfing. We are sure that there is no No-Cam sail out there covering a larger wind range and range of use than the E_PACE. We know how frustrating it is when the wind changes, but with such a wide trimmable range thanks to the 3-in-1 design, a few clicks on your POWER.XT 2.0 and you’re ready for whatever the wind decides!

The E_PACE is exactly the kind of athletic freeride sails that makes windsurfing so fascinating and uncomplicated: easy to rig, accelerate like an e-motor and get into planing without pumping. Paired with competitive speed potential and the playful handling of a no-cam sail. This is pure windsurfing, with lots of thrust, speed AND the special simplicity even for the most sporty driven maneuvers.
Versatility is the great strength of the E_PACE: versatile range of use, versatile in a wide range of wind conditions. Thanks to the 3 IN 1 DESIGN with a greatly reduced luff curve, which is almost straight in the upper area, the downhaul tension has a major influence on the loose leech – and in turn on the character of the sail, depending on the trim. The two extremely wide MIN and MAX trim points offer the opportunity to cover an incredibly wide wind range and to give the E_PACE a completely different high- or low-end performance and sail feeling. On MIN setting it accelerates very powerfully with the slightest wind pressure and feels incredibly light – ideal also for foiling. On MAX trim, however, it offers endless speed and control even when overpowered thanks to its pronounced loose leech.
Ergo: The No Cam E_PACE is the perfect freeride sail for all waters and conditions, combining handling and rigging advantages with a crisp, direct feel and harmonious, sparkling power delivery. Offering lot of fun, confidence, control and wonderfully easy windsurfing. We are sure that there is not a no-cam sail out there covering a larger wind range and range of use than the E_PACE.
Simply awesome: When used for foiling the E_ PACE features a special clew eyelet to be able to position the sail even more upright!
The E_PACE is also available in monofilm-free HD construction. The extremely durable material mix, however, has its price, which we want to point out.
