Since they cannot use North, they have to associate with a name that was connected to North...and that's True kiteboarding...

I guess that's why it shows everywhere...but the brand name will be Duotone.

They must have been planning this for a long time. They have been pushing the #truekiteboarding hashtag for years, probably in anticipation of this, to build association

Not sure if this picture of a Duotone Dice kite and board is legit, but I thought I'd share it with you.

So, the picture is a fake?
What do you think?

The spot in the photo seems “Real watersport north Carolina”

The place of “triple s invitational”

It’s been reposted on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Kiteboarding/c ... h=5d5edf0b

If they take it down on there, I saved a copy, so I can DM it to anyone whose curious. But rest assured, you’re not missing much. It looks pretty plain 😕
