DUAL
More than one way to ride a wave.
No two waves are exactly the same.
Dual lets you change the way you interact with the water throughout the session, giving you more paddling power when you need it and more freedom when you don't.
- More paddling power
- Choose your contact
- Change as you ride

NOT BUILT TO STAY THE SAME
One setup shouldn't decide every wave.
Every bodysurfer knows that conditions change.
The paddle changes.
The take-off changes.
The wall changes.
The section changes.
Traditional handplanes ask you to adapt to a fixed setup.
Dual gives that decision back to you.
- Storm surf.
- Multiple peaks.
- Heavy paddling.
- Fast-changing sections.
Dual was built for the sessions that never stop asking something different from the rider.
WHEN CONDITIONS KEEP CHANGING
FOR RIDERS WHO...
Beachbreaks. Storm swells. Changing tides.
Sessions where every wave asks for something different.
Heavy paddling
When positioning demands power before every wave.
Multiple peaks
When you're constantly moving across the lineup.
Shorebreaks
When symmetrical paddling helps you accelerate faster.
IS DUAL RIGHT FOR YOU?
You never ride two waves the same way. Why not your equipment?
Axis: "I know the line."
Dual: "I'll decide as I go."
You experiment.

Questions before your first session?
Why two handplanes instead of one?
A traditional handplane gives you one fixed amount of surface area.
Dual gives you options.
Use both together for maximum paddling power and lift, or separate them to reduce surface area and fine-tune your speed and control. Instead of adapting to a fixed handplane, you decide how much contact you want with the water throughout the session.
When should I use both together?
Use both handplanes together whenever extra surface area is an advantage.
The larger combined area improves paddling efficiency, creates more lift and increases glide through softer or slower sections.
When the wave becomes faster or more powerful, simply separate them to reduce drag and regain freedom of movement.
Can I switch configurations during the same session?
Absolutely.
That's exactly what Dual was designed for.
Many sessions change with the tide, the wind or the swell. Some riders even change configuration during the same wave, adjusting the amount of surface area to match different sections.
Dual rewards riders who enjoy making decisions instead of accepting a single setup.
Is Dual harder to use than a traditional handplane?
Not necessarily.
If you've only ever used a single handplane, Dual may feel unusual at first.
After a few sessions, however, most riders naturally begin experimenting with different configurations and quickly understand how changing the contact area changes the ride.
Does Dual improve paddling?
Yes.
Using both handplanes creates a larger, symmetrical paddling surface, generating noticeably more propulsion and a more balanced paddling rhythm.
Many riders first notice the improvement before catching their very first wave.
Who should choose Dual instead of Signature?
Choose Signature if you want one handplane that performs beautifully in almost every session.
Choose Dual if you enjoy adapting your riding style as the conditions change.
Signature rewards consistency.
Dual rewards experimentation.
Can I use only one half?
Yes.
Each half works independently as a complete handplane.
Many riders alternate between one and two handplanes depending on the conditions, the section they're approaching or simply the type of ride they're looking for.
That's what makes Dual unique: you're never locked into a single way of riding.
Which conditions suit Dual best?
Dual performs best in changing beachbreaks, storm swells and sessions where different waves ask for different approaches.
Whenever conditions evolve throughout the day, Dual allows your equipment to evolve with them.
Why doesn't every bodysurfer use Dual?
Because it asks for a different mindset.
Most bodysurfers have always ridden with a single handplane and naturally stay loyal to that approach.
Dual isn't trying to replace tradition.
It offers another way of interacting with the wave for riders who enjoy experimenting, adapting and making continuous decisions throughout the session.
Does Dual make bodysurfing more technical?
Yes.
Riding with two handplanes means both hands are working.
You won't have a free hand to clear your face or adjust mid-wave, but in return you gain more paddling power, greater symmetry and complete control over your setup.
Dual rewards riders who enjoy being actively involved throughout the entire session.
READY WHEN THE WAVE IS
Never let one setup decide your session.
More power when you need it.
More freedom when you don't
Always your decision.
