Description
The Select Concept Blue 2027 brings natural materials and refined Freeride performance together in a perfectly balanced package. Designed for riders who value smooth handling, effortless cruising, and everyday comfort, this board delivers a premium Freeride experience with the use of natural materials. At the center of the design is the outline, adding width for earlier planing and improved low-end performance. This increased surface area allows the board to get going faster while also delivering softer, more controlled landings and enhanced stability in variable conditions. The result is a forgiving yet lively Freeride board that feels intuitive from the very first ride. Comfort is a defining feature of the Select Concept Blue. The Double Concave Bottom absorbs shock and smooths out chop, creating a stable and controlled ride even in choppy water. Combined with Soft Flex and Absorption Flex Tips, the board reduces impact and rider fatigue, allowing for longer, more enjoyable sessions. The Concept Blue Construction uses Flax and Basalt fibers to create a natural, responsive flex pattern. This construction delivers a smooth, cushioned feel without sacrificing performance, offering a lively yet forgiving ride that adapts to a wide range of conditions. For smooth carving and playful handling, Space Flex Technology allows the board to flex dynamically across the water. This results in fluid turns and a light, responsive character that enhances the overall Freeride experience. Upwind performance is improved through Angled Rails, which increase grip and tracking efficiency combined with the wider outline. This makes it easier to maintain speed, ride upwind efficiently, and stay in control throughout the session. With its natural materials Flax and Basalt, refined shaping, and focus on comfort and efficiency, the Select Concept Blue 2027 is the ideal Freeride board for riders who want smooth performance and a choice for natural materials.

Technologies
Absorption Flex Tips
A specially engineered tip construction works with the scoop rocker line to adapt seamlessly to different riding conditions. In light winds, the board stays flat for quick planing, while in strong winds the scoop bends to deliver added control and stability. The flexible tips absorb impacts and ensure smooth, cushioned landings.
Space Flex Technology
Space Flex adapts seamlessly to the water’s surface, refining turning performance and overall ride feel. A stiff outer frame combined with flexible tips ensures smooth water release and early planing, while reduced swing weight makes tricks easier and rotations faster.
Angled Rails
Angled Rails enhance board grip, improving upwind performance and delivering more responsive pop.
Performance Outline
The Performance Outline delivers even more comfort and a smoother ride through chop. In addition, the low end is improved and landings are also smoother. Choosing the Performance Outline, comes with choosing a slightly longer board to 100% benefit from the improved performance. If you e.g. used a 138cm/41cm so far, you’d prefer a 141cm/41cm of this shape.
Torsion Flex
A unique 3D cap shape allows controlled torsion along the board’s length, enhancing grip on the heel-side edge, ensuring smooth landings, delivering direct drive, and boosting upwind performance. A true innovation developed by Duotone.
Soft Flex
Designed with softer materials, thinner cores, and specialized geometries, Soft Flex boards deliver a smooth, forgiving ride. They absorb impacts with ease, making every session feel effortless, fun, and full of flow.
Double Concave Bottom
The Double Concave Bottom channels water efficiently along two concave lines, enhancing grip, stability, and pop. This design ensures precise control, smooth planing, and responsive turns, while maintaining stability and control even after hard landings and in rough conditions.
