Duotone Raven Air SLS iSUP Package

The Duotone Raven Air SLS iSUP Package is the performance touring board in the new Duotone inflatable line-up. It is for paddlers who want real distance capability, cleaner speed and a more efficient board under them, but who still value the convenience of an inflatable package.

This is not a casual all-rounder dressed up with a faster name. The Raven is built for glide, efficiency and straight-line performance, while still keeping enough stability to remain realistic outside of glassy brochure conditions. If your idea of a good paddle is covering ground, building fitness, exploring properly or edging toward freerace use, the Raven is where the range starts to make that feel serious.

Where it sits in the Duotone iSUP range

• Choose the Raven Air SLS if you want the fastest, longest-legged inflatable SUP in the Duotone range.
• Choose the Blitz Air SLS if you want more relaxed touring performance with a slightly broader, friendlier feel.
• Choose the Flow Air SLS if you want a genuine all-round board rather than a distance-focused shape.

Why choose the Raven Air SLS

• Excellent glide for distance paddling, fitness sessions and longer tours.
• More speed without losing stability compared with many narrower race-style inflatables.
• Direct, efficient feel from the stiffer SLS construction.
• Compact compared with a hard board equivalent, so it still works for travel and easy storage.
• Proper upgrade path for paddlers who have outgrown shorter touring boards.

Who is the Raven Air SLS for?

It is for paddlers who care about glide and distance. If you are doing longer paddles, fitness sessions or moving toward faster touring, this is the Duotone inflatable to look at.

Is the Raven a race board?

Not in the full specialist sense, but it absolutely leans toward performance touring and freerace use. It is the board in the range for paddlers who want to move efficiently and quickly over distance.

Should I choose the 11'6 or the 12'6?

The 11'6 is the more manageable, slightly livelier option. The 12'6 gives you more waterline, more glide and the more committed touring feel.

Why buy this over a hard touring board?

If you want maximum convenience without giving up too much real performance, the Raven makes a strong case. It packs away, travels easily and avoids the storage and transport headaches that come with a full-size hard board.
