Mini Booms for Duotone Units - Available Now

noice! how quick is it to fit? Just slip it between the handles before inflating?

Thank you psproule

Brilliant, good to see new ideas like this,
your going to make a lot of people very happy with this great invention. Might have to get one for my
North Nova light wind wing 8m one day.

Love my Units; love the handles; would be happier if front handle was just 4-6cm further back.
great work making the mini linking boom.

After watching the Blue Planet discussion with the Duotone Unit designer there was mention that the Unit has reflex in the strut. By joining the two handles you would be getting in the way of the wings ability to do that. The reflex is there so that in a gust the centre of effort moves forward to handle the gust and keep the wing stable. This was just my understanding of what was said - it could be wrong.

Just pointing this out, please don't shoot the messenger.

i can appreciate the need to keep weight down and for reflex by using only two handles, but i hope manufacturers continue to find a way to incorporate single booms effectively into more of their wings.

like at 1m:30s in clip below (please pardon the selfie) in light winds with a bigger wing and doing the spinny stuff, often the hands need to slide along the boom while in the air and rotating, or right at landing, as there's not enough movement to recover by just pushing the arms forward. i'm finding the conventional windsurfing type vulcans and air tacks in particular, usually need the hands to slide a long way back ending up with one at centre boom and other at very rear of boom,

even if there's a small performance hit, it would be great to still have a single boom option

I am making the digital print files available for the end plugs available for download. This allows you to 3d print the plugs, cut your own carbon tube and get your mini-boom out there within 24 hours! This solves the challenge or shipping plus import duties around the world. It also means I will provide updated plugs to buyers as they evolve - which they - even in the last 3 weeks. I provide the license to you to print your own plugs for your wings only. This project has taken a year of design and extensive testing so I ask that you honour this model. Some won't and I can't control that behaviour but I'd rather get them out there to more places which I otherwise could not with physical shipping.
To purchase the plugs just send $55 USD to paul@cloudvision.com.au and I will send you the models, printing instructions, videos on how to use the newly created spacers, how to cut the tube to the right length and how to adjust the length with the new plug model which incorporates clever spacers which are also 3d printed and you will receive the model for. Alternatively, email me with a payment method of your preference.
Please note I am of course still sending out assembled units and this model may not be for everyone. But my feeling is that Digital distribution with local production solves a lot of problems including reducing packaging, carbon emissions etc.
Being introduced to winging by son has been such a gift. Every winger that I have ever met is an incredible person and I am very grateful to have created a product that will improve the winging experience.

WING ON! There's a nice Nor East wind building on Narrabeen Lake - I'm outa here!!
