Does anyone know what is the brand of the wing that appears in the photo?
It is obtained from the following video
Alan Cadiz has worked with Duotone in the past on development of their wings, so possibly a Duotone prototype.
North/Duotone seems to like to keep ideas alive well past their expiry date. I expect it will hang around for a few years just like the a dangerous around-too-long Iron Heart bar loop or the 5th line (obsolete years before it was retired) I anticipate the boom will continue to shrink in size as it's doing here with the Slick until it's closer to something like what Cabrinha has on their V2s or Armstrong with their overpriced separate purchase bar.
Actually, the micro-hook was an amazing tool for those who learned how to use it during tricks. Similarly, the loaded 5th line was great for quickly adjusting the profile of the kite by simply adding a pigtail. Now, making bridal adjustments to fine-tune the profile is more time consuming. I know, simple is better for most folks (99%) who just unbag a kite and fly it as is for its whole life.

Sorry! I was trying to delete the extra information and didn't notice I deleted the wrong author.
