If you are into kiteboarding and love Porsche, then you may want to check out this piece of news. Kiteboarding manufacturer Duotone and sports car maker Porsche have teamed up again to unveil their latest kitesurfing masterpiece inspired by the iconic Porsche 917/20, known as the “Pink Pig.”
The special edition kite, limited to 360 units, pays homage to the 917’s Le Mans racing history. Oh, why 360 you asked? It is a nod to the top speed of the car that raced at Le Mans in 1971.
Duotone’s Evo SLS technology ensures top-tier kite performance in sizes 7 m, 9 m, and 12 m (22’, 30’, and 39’) (Evo SLS Pink Pig Limited Edition), complemented by a 138 cm (4’ 6”) board (Select Concept Blue Pink Pig Limited Edition). Also available will be the Duotone NTT Pink Pig Limited Edition.
You can register for this unique combo on Duotone’s online shop. And you will want to do that (i.e. register) because last year, the first Porsche kite from Duotone was sold out in a flash. No. DC wasn’t involved (are you feeling a cold? ha!).
Plus, part of the proceeds will support Duotone’s “Young Blood” program, helping young talents in kitesurfing transition to the professional ranks with training, social media savvy, and sponsorship opportunities. The pricing has not been revealed, by the way. Have a few more looks at the collection after the jump.
