In general, kiteboards can be subdivided into three categories: twintips, surfboards and foilboards. The individual boards can then be further subdivided into categories such as freeride, freestyle, waves, racing, big wave etc., there is more information on this in the overview pages for kiteboards. Here we are looking at the

With foilboards you have a choice between two, three or even no straps. Your personal preference and surfing style will be crucial here. If you specialise mainly in racing, straps are essential. On the other hand, if you prefer freeriding or performing tricks on your foil, you will be able to make your own mind up about what works best for you.

Twintips and surfboards are ridden with fins, foilboards do not have fins, as they have the foil. With twintips, you have a choice between different fin sizes (2cm, 3.5 cm, 4.5 cm and 5cm). The smaller the fins, the more manoeuvrable the kiteboard is. The larger the fins, the easier it is to edge the board and ride upwind.

With surfboards, you have a choice between different fin shapes. At Duotone these are the TS-M, TS-M Pro I and TS-M Pro II fins. The choice of fins depends on personal preference, riding style and preferred discipline and spot.

The board size depends on your riding style and body weight. Beginners tend to use larger kiteboards as they make waterstarts easier and perform better when planing and for touch-downs during foiling. Professionals, for example, use very short boards for foilboarding. With twintips, freestylers often use larger kiteboards to facilitate landings, while big air specialists prefer smaller boards which edge better in strong winds. For twintips, in addition to the length of the kiteboard, the width is also very important, because any change in width has a far greater impact on the total area of the board. For surfboards, the volume is also important in addition to the length and width. To make sure everyone chooses the correct size of board for their body weight, we have cerated size tables with precise information on the product pages for each board.

Twintips are by far the most commonly used boards. Every kite school teaches with twintips and lots of kiters remain loyal to the twintip for a long time. Twintips are the easiest board for jumping, manoeuvring and riding upwind. However, the fixed leg and feet position prescribed by the straps and boots can sometimes result in pain for people with hip, knee or ankle injuries.

Compared to twintips, surfboards offer a significantly better performance in waves. You can pull off smoother turns and enjoy the pure surf feeling. Surfboards give you a special sense of freedom thanks to the curve in the round rails, the larger volume and the ability to position your feet freely.

Foilboards are usually designed exclusively for use with a foil mast and foil pane (which must be acquired separately). You could also choose kiteboards such as the Duotone Hybrid, which can be used either as a foilboard or surfboard.

Deciding between a twintip and a surfboard is rather harder. You can easily ride a twintip at a wave spot then use the waves as a kicker for jumps, for example. And you can just as easily use a surfboard in flat water and focus more on leisurely cruising or strapless freestyle.

Often you can get a kiteboard in various different designs (e.g. Jaime vs. Jaime SLS; Wam vs. Wam SLS). The more sophisticated constructions offer significantly better performance. You need to think about whether that really is necessary for you or whether a simpler design will be adequate.

You should also take your physical condition into consideration. Kiteboards and twintips with softer flex and a more curved outline will be easier on joints in choppy water, but perform less well for jumps.
