The stated changes are higher structural stiffness through revised inflation pressures, an optimised leading edge with less drag, a cleaner canopy profile, faster climb and more dynamic jump response, plus more balanced performance across the full size range. Recommended pressure is 9 PSI for 10m and smaller and 8 PSI for 11m and larger. The published 11m upper wind figure also moves from 29 knots in 2026 to 30 knots in 2027; the other published wind ranges remain the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the 2027 worth paying more for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose the 2027 if you want the latest, crisper structural tuning, current colours and the livelier climb described by Duotone.
