RIDE AS IF WEARING A CAPE …

The Super Hero blends exceptional handling with a lightweight build that doesn’t compromise durability. It is Duotone’s most versatile wave sail in both wind range and the riders it targets. Lightweights, heavyweights, high winds or marginal, the Super Hero elevates rider confidence, and elongates sessions. Its power delivery, centered between a rider’s hands, is instantly trustable, which encourages a relaxed riding grip on the boom that saves energy and boosts progression and fun.

The Duotone Super Hero is PWA Wave triple world Champion Victor Fernadez’s sail of choice. He competes with it in all locations. The sail’s balanced draft position, and light-done-right construction delivers the responsiveness of a 3-batten sail in drift-and-go conditions, and the planing power needed for onshore conditions. The Super Hero planes early, offers incredible drive on a wave, but remains stable throughout thanks to its centered draft position.

For 2023, the Super Hero received a visual facelift. It is technically unchanged from the 2022 model, which featured a modified panel layout, and a new mast sleeve construction that reduced sail weight by 200 to 300 grams. Unlike Duotone rivals, the fabric and film thickness in the Super Hero has not been reduced to save weight. That’s the magic of “light-done-right” construction: weight savings without compromising durability.

Every single size of the Super Hero has been tuned down to the last detail. The batten rotation is buttery smooth even with minimal outhaul. The head of the sail works actively, swallowing hards gusts to boost acceleration. The elastic one-piece mast sleeve and modified profile are extremely efficient. With the Super Hero, you can confidently choose a smaller size than many other wave sails.

DUOTONE SUPER HERO FEATURES

HTS 2.0 HARNESS LINE TRIM SYSTEM

No more harness line guesswork. The patented print on the sail shows exactly where the center of the harness line has to be. All you need to do is position the two harness line straps symmetrically to the left and right of the print.

VTS VISUAL TRIM SYSTEM 2.0

Perfect trim in a matter of seconds with 100% accuracy. Simply downhaul the sail until the loose leech reaches the “lower wind limit” or “upper wind limit” printed indicators. The VTS ensures maximum performance and broader range of use.

INDIVIDUAL BOOM LENGTH INDICATION

The correct boom length can be tricky, as boom length settings vary depending on a rider’s boom height preference. We’ve printed specific boom length recommendations on the luff sleeve. Whether you ride with a high or low boom, you’ll rig right!

TT TOP

Designer Kai Hopf originally designed the TT Top for the Warp race sail. This innovative top twists horizontally and vertically in strong winds, which completely neutralizes gusts. The result is a steady rig in the rider’s hands that improves sail range and riding confidence.

X.PLY PLUS

After extensive testing, we developed the ideal combination of film thickness and number of threads. Our X.Ply Plus, at 150 microns in thickness, boasts durability characteristics far in excess of previous laminates at minimal weight. Rental equipment providers around the world find our sails outlast our rivals.

2+3 YEAR WARRANTY

To prove our dedication to durability and quality, our Super Hero sails come with a 2+3 year warranty. To secure this warranty, please register at www.duotonesports.com straight after your purchase. Otherwise, only statutory warranty claims will be accepted. This is valid only for original owners.

Get answers to common shipping questions.

More tips below!

Why is there no tracking info for my order on the shipper’s web page? (0:25 in video)

It can take up to 48 hours for tracking info to display from when you receive our shipping confirmation email. Rest assured, your package is en route. Also, be sure to enter the BOL # (Bill of Lading) with no spaces in the tracking field.

How will I know which freight facility my board is being delivered to? (1:05 in video)

Your shipping confirmation email will include the freight facility’s contact info. If we are unable to find a freight facility within a 30-minute drive from you, we will reach out with other shipping options.

How will I know when my board is ready for pickup at a freight facility? (1:55)

The freight facility will contact you when your board is ready for pickup. Be sure to bring a photo ID, and be sure to check the facility’s pickup hours.

An employee at the freight facility is demanding I sign for my board shipment prior to me seeing it. What do I do? (2:30)

Sign your name followed by “on further inspection.” Signing in this manner offers protection. It gives us a 48 hour window for damage claims to be made with freight providers.

My board is being delivered to my house. Its tracking info says it reached its destination, but I don’t have my board. What gives? (3:05)

You will receive a call to schedule delivery soon. The call occurs shortly after your board reaches the freight company’s destination hub. Note that board deliveries require a signature, which demand a drop off appointment. If the shipping company hasn't called to schedule a delivery time, there's no need to put your life on hold by waiting at home.

How can I protect myself (and my board) from freight damage? (3:50)

Inspect the box. Look for signs of trauma like tire tread, severe creasing, or puncture holes. If these are present, and reveal fatal damage to your board, do not sign. Refuse the shipment. Call us at 541 386 6086, and we will get a replacement board headed your way.

What if the box shows some wear, but it’s tough to tell if the board is damaged? (4:40)

Sign your name followed by “on further inspection.” Signing in this manner offers protection. It gives us a 48 hour window for damage claims to be made with freight providers.

And if I do find damage to my board, what then? (5:20)

Send us photos. Closeups of the damaged area, and photos that show the interior and exterior box damage go far. Also, keep the packing materials. We’ll work with our shipping partners to get you either a damage credit or a replacement board.

I received my board, but no fins, foot straps, or vent plug ... (6:14)

Fins, foot straps and hardware are typically hidden in protective cardboard sleeves. Closely examine your packing materials. Each board shipment entails a thorough checklist. Everything is in there!
