Duotone Dice 2021 Kite
Versatile freestyle, big air and kiteloop kite from Duotone
The Duotone Dice 2021 is an all-round kite with an emphasis on freestyle and big air. It is the kite that fills the gap between the super relaxed Duotone Evo and hardcore Vegas. The Duotone Dice 2021 was developed by Lasse Walker and Aaron Hadlow, both freestyle kiters and participants in the world"s most prestigious big air kite competition the King of the Air. During the KOTA, the choice of both Aaron and Lasse was the Duotone Dice. The Dice gives you the lift you need for a big air, and the turning speed to pull a mega run around with super confidence. In addition, the Dice can also be used well in the field of unhooked freestyle tricks because of its good pop.Last year we saw a very big update to the Dice. The Dice was then upgraded with a fixed bridle, which made the Dice faster, more direct and more reliable. For 2021, the Dice has had a number of minor upgrades. For example, the bridle lines are made of new, stiffer material. So Dice 2021 is again bit more directly and even more precisely. The 5th line attachment that was standard on the Dice has been removed, however it is still possible to sail the Dice as 5 lines if you wish. Due to these updates, the Dice 2021 has become slightly lighter in weight, which benefits the flight characteristics. And what immediately stands out is the very cool new 2021 design in three awesome color combinations.
The 2021 Duotone Dice still does what the Dice has always been good at. Big air, kiteloops and the Dice gives you good pop for freestyle tricks like handle passes. When it really comes down to it, like during storms, the Dice 2021 stands its ground. The Dice remains stable even in very gusty conditions. The high-end is unbelievable, perhaps the Dice is the kite with the best high-end of all Duotone kites, you can imagine that the Dice 2021 is a very good option as a storm kite.
The very gradual depower of the Dice has also been retained for the Dice 2021. This means that you can depower the Dice on the bar super easily and in a controlled manner by pushing the bar away from you and you will feel more depower every centimeter. There is hardly any other kite that does this well.
The very high quality of the construction of the Dice 2021 is as we are used to from Duotone. The canopy is made of Trintiy TX, the modern light trailing edge, a durable leading edge and protection at important points. You can find different attachment points for your steering lines so that you can adjust the Duotone Dice 2021 completely to your own preference.
All in all, the Dice 2021 is still one of the best all-round performance kites that brings big air, kiteloops and freestyle tricks together. The Duotone Dice 2021 is the ideal kite if you want to push yourself to the slightly more extreme side of kite surfing without having an overly radical kite that is difficult to control.

Ik vaar de Dice nu een maandje en ben heel erg onder de indruk. Ik had hiervoor Naish Pivots en ik had verwacht dat ik iets zou inleveren op hoogte en hangtime. Op hangtime heb ik inderdaad een klein beetje ingevelerd, maar ik spring hoger met mn Dice. Ik heb ook de North Pulse getest, maar vind dat de dice toch een stuk makkelijker is qua timing met springen.
De dice voelt heel vertrouwd en is lekker responsief. Vooral de high end van deze kite super. Je hebt veel power maar de kite is niet zo aan het sleuren. Laatst waaide het 30 knopen en toen was de 10 meter nog lekker te varen op volle power.
Vooral de 8 meter loopt super soepel en stabiel. De 10 meter loopt ook prima. Bij 20 knopen wordt je wel gevangen als je je best doet. Bij 25-30 knopen komt het sowieso goed. De 12 meter is ook prima snel voor de maat. Hij voelt niet zo lomp aan zoals andere grote kites.
De tassen zijn klein maar daardoor leer je je kite netjes op te rollen ;)
Al met al echt een topkite!
it’s insane! Over the last 2 years the Dice has really excelled in performance. Due to the pully-less bridle and new refinements, the 2021 Dice performs to push your riding in Big Air and freestyle as far as you want, whilst still having the smooth handeling overall feel the Dice has become so famous for!
If you want to push your riding, hump high, megaloops or wave riding the Dice is the weapon of choice for you.
The Dice has been one of the best kite for years if you are looking for allround performance and an easy to handle kite. The depower is amazing! If you want to combine big air, kiteloops and freestyle. This is the kite for you!
I've been riding the Dice for 3 years now and have a 7/9/12 and I'm really happy with this kite! The kite feels super direct and has a lot of hangtime and last but not least it loops like crazy. I like a lot of bar pressure myself so that I can feel where the kite is in the air and with the hard setting on the Dice this is perfect, the kite can be perfectly adjusted to your own preference. Unhooking is also great with this kite, but I really bought it purely for its sick mega loops and it does that well! In short, if you like megaloops and a bit of freestyle, I would recommend this kite as the best!
