Duotone Skybrid Review
In this video I'll test the brand-new @duotone.wingfoiling SKYBRID for you.
I wanna find out if this "mid-length" wingfoil board makes any sense on the water in light wind or is it perhaps better to stick with your old short board?
Will it get you onto the foil quicker and what about the swing weight of this longer board?
First I will pick-up the board @VandenBergSurf in Almere (the Netherlands) and then go straight to the water for a test session.
Have fun watching and..
See you on the water!

Is it fun to do a wing slalom race? "The Battle of the Beaches"
I see you are very interested in youtube do you want to monetize your youtube channel
Perhaps a word on your weight and the size of the tested board ?
No problem! The SKYBRID I tested was the 5'10 (177cm), 100L, 6,89kg. Have fun and ... See you on the water!
Leuke video. Wat heb je voor foil eronder?
Hi Floris, dank je. Voor de test gebruikte ik mijn F4foils F800 cm2 front wing 190 cm2 back wing. Tot op het water!
Hi, What do you think about your F4 foil setup? I'm considering buying it! Greetings
Hi Maks, right now I'm using the CA series with a carbon 90cm HM mast and normally my F800 (freeride WINDfoil frontwing) icw 190cm2 back wing and 78cm fuselage. This combination is playful, has a low stall speed and is pretty fast so it's my "go to" setup. If I want to go fast I'll change to the 620cm2 or even the 560 cm frontwing, but I prefer the setup with the F800. The reason I use this CA series is that I started out a few years ago with my winDfoil F4foils slalom foil and could use the front and back wings for winGfoiling as well. If you are a dedicated winGfoiler you might be better off with the GP series as there has been quite some development in the foils in the last few years. If I look at my new F800 front wing it is so much easier compared to the older 850 cm2 freerace (winDfoil). All the things I'm telling you here are based on my personal preference, homespot, weight. The best advice I can give you is find a store nearby which will allow you to test the equipment before you buy it. Have fun and ... See you on the water!
nice spot, where is it?
It is. It's Almere right next to vandenbergsurf.nl in Almere. See you on the water!
Great video. Would you pick a 5'8 if 70kg? Thanks
@@lewiss66 thank you 🙏🏻. What size you need depends on your level, in what kind of conditions you will be using it and what you want to do. Duotone recommends the 5’6 for your weight. Personally I would want a board like that as an extra board for patchy or offshore wind conditions at my homespot which means I would probably go for 1 size bigger than recommended by Duotone so that would be the 5’8 in your case. If you are blessed with relative constant wind conditions, can jibe consistently or are even better and it will be your board for most conditions I would go for the recommended size so the 5’6 Have fun and . See you on the water
@@Windsurfcoach Yep! Thanks, You too.
Leuk!
Hi Wilco, dank je, leuk om te horen! Tot op het water!!
Ga je naar Marseille?
@@wilcootte7408 het lijkt me echt super leuk, maar ik denk dat ik de races het beste thuis via de TV en internet kan volgen. Tot op het water!!
Nice video. I think, 80L board it's small for a begginers.
@@rscaneable I agree! It worked for me, but that 80L board absolutely didn’t make it any easier. There are more stable and much easier boards to start with on the market. I would now advise a longer, wider board with a volume of at least own weight + 40L.

So envious of wind. I want wind too. But seems not this week.
I do a little wind dance every day! Maybe you should try it to (and post it of course ;-) ) Have fun and... See you on the water!!!
Do cam sails make the duck Jibe harder than the normal Jibe?
Hi Premed, yes. Non camber sails go "neutral" when not loaded and therefor are light in the sail flip. Camber sails are much heavier and always keep their profile which will make them powered up as soon as there is any apparent wind. Besides that the camber sails have a lager foot which makes it more difficult to get around while "ducking" (switching sides). I recommend learning the duck jibe preferably with non camber sail with a relative high foot if that is possible. Of course if you only have camber sails don't let it hold you back and just go for it!! Have fun and... See you on the water!!
Very good footage demonstrating that how benefits you can get in short time when having tips frm pro, i'm still missing air jibe because i don't know what's wrong ...
Hi Eric, Thank you, great to hear! A clinic by a pro like Bob van de Burgt is absolutely a shortcut to the next level! If you have the chance I can definitively recommend it. If you send me a link of a video (or send the video via DM on my INSTA) of you doing a foil jibe I'll will discuss it in an edition of WIND LIFE. Have fun and... See you on the water!!!
The speed is knots on the ocean!!
Hi Henrik, yeah and than to think that in the PWA slalom races they're even going faster than that on the ocean..... Respect ! Have fun and ... See you on the water!!
Congratulations you got it... i'm on way too. Its a big challenge...
Thank you! It was quite challenging and the best advice I can give you is ... Use a board with enough volume (your weight + at least 40). It should also be a board that's able to get up to speed easily and preferably is a bit longer. Start with something like a 2000 cm2 foil beginners foil. It's quite a rewarding journey, so have fun and... See you on the water!
I enjoy this series, please continue it 😊
Thank you, great to hear!! See you on the water!!
Leuk al die filmpjes Ik vraag me een ding af ik hoor je zeggen maandag, dinsdag, woensdag Op welke dagen moet je werken
Hi Mart, dank je! Ik durf het bijna niet te zeggen ... Ik woon op maar 5 minuten van mijn homespot! Vroeger ging ik vaak verder weg windsurfen, maar dat koste relatief heel veel tijd. Zeker nu met de foil maakt het niet meer uit of de wind vlagerig is of niet dus is die kleine plas dicht bij plotseling een geweldige spot geworden. Tot op het water!!!
I love blasting on my 72 wide board with a 38 fin and my 7.8 15 knots and I’m flying
Hi Spudswatersports, That's my favorite weather! Just cruising on my medium board with the 7.8 is magic! My full reaction will be in the next edition of WIND LIFE (week 28) which will be released next week. See you on the water!!
Cool om al je gezonde gewoontes te zien!
Hi Wiepke, leuk om te horen . Onze Oosterburen zeggen altijd "mann ist was mann isst" en dat is zeker waar. Tot op het water!!!
Hi windsurf coach, wat is jou home spot? Ziet er goed uit!!
Hi Ronald, mijn homespot is de "Zuwe". Het is maar een kleine plas in de buurt van Loosdrecht en is omgeven door bomen waardoor het altijd super vlagerig en draaierig is maar het is voor mij maar 5 minuten rijden!! Iedereen heeft wel een klein meertje in de buurt, maar niemand vaart er eigenlijk op vanwege de "slechte" wind, maar juist dit soort plassen dichtbij maakt dat je even snel na je werk of in het weekend een uurtje kan varen. Ideaal! Tot op het water!
Hi, great video. A question, sometimes I see windfoiler (iQfoilers) standing with the back foot infront of the footstrap. Why do they do this?
Hi Mats, thank you! In windfoil racing you are looking for a comfortable stance and control. As most of the regular iQfoil racing is sailing up- & downwind the foil will be pretty powered which can also be seen by how far the foilers are hanging off to the front while in their harness. To have more pressure on the front of the board when going on a deep downwind course you can place your backfoot out of the back strap and in front of the strap (and to the inside) to have a comfortable stance and be able to keep the board level. In this situation you will be going relatively fast without having much pressure in your sail. I also use it as well sometimes when pointing so it's easier to have a more upright stance, but when really pushing across or just slightly off the wind I prefer to use both straps for maximum control. I don't do much course racing on the foil, but mostly slalom, so maybe the iQfoilers on the channel how are reading this can complement. See you on the water!!!
Erg informatief! Keep up the good vids.
Hi Marco, dank je, leuk om te horen! Tot op het water!
Hi. Nice video - not many videos using transport-friendly boards/sails. How does it handle the chop? Is it stiff enough in crossing the waves?
@pkundrat, thank you! These boards are quite interesting, but also have their limitations. One of those limitations is chop.... I found lack of stiffness compared to the hardboard noticeably reduces the speed and increases the power required to continue planing. In flat water it performs pretty good, but maybe I should do an extensive test video in the future about this subject. There are also semi hard inflatables on the market and these might just perform better while stil being transport friendly. See you on the water!!
@@Windsurfcoach That still sounds rideable - not as good as rigid but still usable. For compact board i would be willing to sacrifice some performance as i would not travel with the hard board at all. Friend of mine rides STX and he told me that it was folding in the waves, so wasnt usable at all. Which brands do semi hard inflatable? I was looking into Sunova - in 2019 they were promising foldable Carbon Compact aka twopiece construction for all their boards - was asking them what is the status of that - they didnt reply to my query yet.
@@pkundrat , it is rideable in chop. I haven't tested it in waves yet so I can't tell you how it behaves there. DUO WIND is a board by @duo-boards which is partly hard and partly inflatable. Also very interesting concept. (Is on my wish list to test for you guys). Hope you have a shop near by that will let you test boards before making a decision (like vandenbergsurf.nl in the Netherlands does). Have fun and... See you on the water!
Why so big gap betwen boom end and sail ?
Hi Justelis, Windfoiling I use quite a large adjustment range for the outhaul especially in varying wind conditions to make the most of the natural range of the sail. In this shot I have a deeper profile and so the gap is a little bigger. I rather have a cm too much than too little as that would limit my trim range. Have fun and... See you on the water!
Great vid! Question, what did your friend hit that caused the crash?
Hi Mark, thank you, great to hear!! We don't know what caused the crash. Could have been something like a fish or piece of wood, but we haven't seen anything. That's the thing I hate most about windfoiling...... those unexpected crashes every little now and then. Have fun and.. See you on the water!!!
You are so right about the crashes. May I point you and your listener’s to Franck Gressier (Free ride addicted) He makes quick release harness spreader bars and foot straps. I recently purchased - one day they will be worth every penny 😄
@@markrudd8265 , I've heard about the harness spreader and would like to test it some day. Stay safe, have fun and... See you on the water!
Mooie video, jammer van de crash. Vraag aan je: ik vaar op een 1300 superflyer foil. Deze stijl van varen is dat ook mogelijk met die oppervlakte of moet ik kleiner voor dat. Dank je
Hi Rene, Dank je! Leuk om te horen. Ik was allang blij dat Tim zelf ok was en dat het alleen materiaal pech was. Tim en ik wilde een slalom training gaan doen, dat betekent ruime windje koersen op maximale snelheid met om de 300-500 meter een gijp. Daarna weer opkuisen en repeat. Slalom foil front wings beginnen ergens bij 800cm2 en gaan zo klein als 350cm2 om zo hard mogelijk te kunnen varen. Je kan met je superflyer al oefenen, maar als je in de races wil kunnen strijden met de rest moet je eigenlijk wel de kleinere slalom voor- en achter vleugels hebben op je foil. De 1300 superflyer heeft simpelweg te veel weerstand en is daardoor te traag. Have fun en.... Tot op het water!
💥💥💥
Hi Joroen, thanks and.... See you on the water!!
seems x15 going well...any opinio about this board with light wind for course racing?
Hi Carmelo, I'm using the older slamom version of the X15 in the width 81cm. This board is great for slalom with sails up to 8.0. I also use it with 9.0 and a 90cm wide 850 cm2 frontwing, but for the bigger sail sizes I would recommend a wider board (around 90cm). I almost never use a course race setup, but I expect you would want the wider boards 90-100cm for that. Have fun flying over the water and... See you on the water!!!
Totally agree if you are fit enough to mange a large sail without busting your shoulders and knees. As I’m getting older, recovery time is a factor and while I like ridding my Falcon Lightwind under my NP V8 9.4, it is definitely a workout my body has a harder time to cope with. Great video.
Hi Whynowind, thank you! Aging and windsurfing..... Recovery time is absolutely not getting any shorter with the years unfortunately, but I guess we'll all just continue windsurfing as long as the body will allow. It's just such a joy you don't wanna miss out on. But in preparation for the day you can no longer wrestle the 9.4 any more you could already start foiling or winging occasionally so you have it in your system and can still be on the water as you get older. Windfoiling and winging are less physical and still allow you to go on the water on those light wind days as well. Have fun and... See you on the water!!
Divided over two locations, I did three sessions today. About 65km distance. Managed to get three full planing jibes and a 2sec of 62kmh. I'm totally broken on the couch, watching your video, Remco. Thanks for your tips.
Hi Fons, Way to go, absolutely great work!!!!!! 62 km/hr is really fast btw!!! Don't you just love that feeling of planing out of the jibe!! After 65 km that couch must feel pretty awesome right now. Enjoy and ... See you on the water!!!

Hi Tim, dank je! Het was weer een memorable race! Volgend jaar jij ook op de foil? Tot op het water!!
Hi, I tried mine with my Liberty harness on foil. I normally go with really long lines for speedruns. I had serious issues to unhook these lines since they retain as I loosen the pressure and try to unhook. They kind of follow the hook uppward. Any tips on how to avoid this or will the plastic tube become better shaped after som hours?
Hi Mats, thank you for sharing your feedback. It's valuable info. I've had almost no such problems, but for me super long is something like 44 inch and I don't know what happens when you go al the way to 50. (my arms are too short for that 😂) I still use the Lisa lines to date btw. For me the lines that stayed in the same angle made it very predictable to hook in or out, but I can imagine that if you go all the way to 50 inch you might encounter the problem you've mentioned. Maybe at Lisa they have a solution for that. Keep pushing and... See you on the water!
Gaaf om dit zo vanaf het water te zien!

beste windsurf coach heb jij al de ozon fusion wing getest zo ja gaat het iets worden voor de toekomst voor meer merken ?
Hi Raven, nee helaas nog niet, maar staat zeker op mijn verlanglijstje. Ik verwacht dat het wegnemen van de leading edge vortex door dit soort designs een aanzienlijke efficiëntie boost gaat opleveren en dus zeker voor extra snelheid, verbeterde upwind angles en langere airtime gaan zorgen. Zodra ik er een te pakken kan krijgen voor een test zijn jullie de eerste die de resultaten te horen krijgen. Dus, stay tuned to the channel of the WINDSURFCOACH! Tot op het water!!
I'm sure you could squeeze even higher speed out of it. Bend your legs a little more, sit lower and use a harnas . Nice vid btw
Thank you for your feedback! I absolutely want to do a follow-up video on this one this year so stay tuned to the channel of the WINDSURFCOACH. Have fun and ... See you on the water!
You need to use a way smaller foil. I’m on 290cm for speed Wing-Foil.
Hi Hadden67, I'm absolutely gonna give it another go this year with a smaller front wing so stay tuned to the channel of the windsurfcoach. See you on the water!!!
Hi, thanks for your review, today I tried a 5.0 and was a really good wing, I had gusty conditions, even too much for a 5 and the wing was absolutely stable! Woow, I feel that loves to go upwind easily , and pull forward very nice. How would you compare it with a duotone slick, ? Thank you
Hi Diego, you are welcome. I didn't try the Flux in 5.0 and I've been told the 5.0 is supposed to be faster compared to the 5.7 I tested as the 5.7 was made to perform best in light winds. At Ozone they tried to give you a wing that performs well for the conditions you normally face with the chosen size. Overall if I compare the Flux 5.7 to the Slick 6.0 I used today the Flux is more stable and pulls harder in the same windspeed but has a lower topspeed. Personally I really like the Slick as it's so playful, light and fast but the playfulness of the Slick can also be the downside as it can be felt as nervousness. So if you're looking for a stable wing to get going in the lightest of airs and just cruise than go for the Flux, if on the other hand you are more into transitions, freestyle and some speed go for the Slick. Have fun and see you on the water!!
great stuff!
Hi Cristian, thank you! Nice to hear and... See you on the water!
