A blade for a wind turbine has a hollow or exoskeleton blade body. The blade body has a leading edge and a trailing edge along a span thereof. The blade body includes a first blade portion and a second blade portion wherein the first blade portion and the second blade portion are integrated with one another along at least 90% of the leading edge, and are in uncoupled contact at the trailing edge. The uncoupled contact permits the first blade portion and second blade portion to experience relative movement at the trailing edge when the blade body twists.
