Available Soon at AFLOAT Watersports with a SPECIAL Offer (LINK)
A new era of foiling is about to begin. In just days, the long-awaited Duotone Foil Assist will officially debut and early testers, shops, and riders are already calling it one of the most innovative and exciting pieces of foiling technology ever released. For athletes, beginners, and adventure-seekers alike, this Assist system promises to unlock more sessions, more waves, more progression, and more freedom than any previous approach. And AFLOAT Watersports is thrilled to announce that we will be among the first to offer this groundbreaking product with an exclusive SPECIAL launch offer.
A Revolutionary Design From the Ground Up
The Duotone Foil Assist isn’t just another accessory, it’s a full redesign of what assisted foiling can be. At its core is a simple but game-changing idea:
Put the battery on the rider, not the board.
By shifting the battery to a waist-mounted harness, Duotone dramatically reduces board weight, drag, and bulk. This creates a noticeably more natural, gliding, surf-like foil feel that early testers repeatedly praise.
Key Benefits of the Waist-Mounted System
- Ultra-low drag in the water
- “Real foil” feel, even when riding unpowered
- Freedom of movement when paddling, winging, or pumping
- Buoyancy built into the harness so the battery doesn’t pull the rider down
- Cleaner deck, no bulky battery box, no major board mods
Duotone’s design team paired this layout with a compact, highly efficient motor mounted cleanly on a specialized Duotone mast. The motor features a folding propeller that opens only when powered and then streamlines behind the mast — maximizing safety and minimizing resistance.
Smart Engineering You Can Feel on the Water
What has impressed testers most is just how polished this system feels. Everything Duotone built into the Foil Assist has purpose:
The Ring Remote, Hands-Free Control
The “Ring Remote” is one of the most rave-reviewed features, a small, watch-like controller worn on your hand that leaves both hands completely free. No throttle grips, no awkward tethers, just smooth and intuitive power delivery.
High-Torque Motor Performance
Riders have highlighted:
- Fast, smooth acceleration
- Strong, predictable thrust (~33 kg reported by Duotone)
- Enough power for heavier riders
- Excellent support for pumping and connecting multiple waves
From first-time foilers to seasoned downwind specialists, the consensus is consistent: the power feels natural and confidence-building.
Airline-Friendly, Modular Batteries
One of the system’s biggest advantages is the compact battery architecture:
- Designed around travel-friendly energy ratings
- Smart charging system for longevity
- Modular structure for easy swaps
- Lightweight feel in the water, several testers said they “forgot it was even there”
Massive Flexibility: Works with Your Gear
The Foil Assist integrates with an incredible range of equipment:
- Compatible with standard US-track foil boards
- Works with many of the world’s most popular foil brands, including Axis, North, Gong, AFS, SAB, KT, CODE, and more
- Can be paired with Duotone’s own mid-length boards for maximum performance
For riders already invested in a setup they love, the Foil Assist makes upgrading seamless.
Real Feedback From Early Testers
Shops, demo riders, and reviewers who have already tested pre-release units have been overwhelmingly positive:
- “The most natural-feeling assist we’ve ever tried.”
- “I forgot the battery was on my waist after a few minutes.”
- “The Ring Remote is a game changer.”
- “The drag is unbelievably low — it feels like a pure foil session.”
- “Easy power, smooth takeoff, incredibly intuitive.”
From wave foiling to downwinding to beginners just learning to stand, the Foil Assist consistently delivers a more accessible and exhilarating experience.
