Thanks Tucker. Glad to hear the surf handle is a bit stiffer. My SLS Slicks have done a great job for the last 2 seasons, but I figured it was time to splurge on a DLab quiver from MACkiteboarding ( always great service and pricing). I watched Alan Cadiz ride the 2024 DLab Slick in his latest instructional video and I can just tell it’s going to be a special wing. I’ve been riding Dutone boom wings since Sept 2019 ( pre-Echo).

Yes, the new Slick is next level and the D/lab is even better! -Tucker

I think the speedy forward driving style of the Slick is going to match up well with speedy skinny boards and fast glidy foils.

Absolutely. They complement each other perfectly. -Tucker

Hey Tucker, I'm a beginner still with 14 sessions completed. Can fly both directions confidently and working on my gybes now. I have one 5M North Nova from 2022 and need to upgrade and expand my quiver. Conditions I ride are anywhere from 10 knot light winds to 30 knot winter storms. Would you recommend this Slick wing or the North Mode Pro and in which sizes for a good solid range? Cheers, Shaun

Thank you for this. I'm putting gear together to be a beginner after a long career kite foiling and windsurfing. I'm 148 pounds and found a 2023 second hand 4m Unit. Would I be best on a 5 or 5.5 Slick for a light wind day? Our lightest days I'd attempt are 14-16 mph

Great review as always! I ride a 4.5 ensis score. What size slick would you recommend to replace it? Would a 5m be a good choice?
@MACkiteboarding5 ай бұрын
Yes, I'd size up a half meter. The Slick has plenty of high end range. -Tucker

Im looking for a 6m light wind wing and I wonder if the slick dlab allula 2023 offer more than the new 2024 normal slick ?
@MACkiteboarding4 ай бұрын
They have similar low end but the D/lab will have a little more top end range. -Tucker

@Tucker I have a 2023 6.5 Slick and I'd like to get another Slick for higher wind ranges. I'm 200 lbs. Should I get the 5.0 or the 5.5 give what you said about the wing being less grunty?
@MACkiteboarding5 ай бұрын
I'd say the 5.0 would offer you the best range without much overlap. The 5.5m isn't a bad option if you want a smooth gradient of power delivery through the whole range of wind. -Tucker

Hi guys - I have 2 slicks from 2021 5,5m and 6,5m. Now I think to buy new DLab slick 6,0m do you this it is wise decision ? I am not afraid of its low end but worried about how this wing behave in gusty wind when overpowered. Can you advise ?
@rafaswiecki50593 ай бұрын
Of course new dlab 6,0 will replace two old wings
