Pack Wing HIPE Perf

With its range from 4’8 to 7’5, the HIPE Perf covers a wide range of uses and levels.

In the larger sizes it’s super easy for beginnings in wing or SUP foiling. It turns into an ultra versatile board in smaller sizes for wing foiling, surf foiling or kite foiling as long as you are in good physical condition or light.

We have selected the best foil and wing size for each size of the HIPE Perf. The chart below will help you choose the board size that suits you. We’ll take care of the rest!

As extra options, we suggest:

For your safety:

• HELMET and IMPACT VEST: to protect you in the event of a fall and allow you to progress safely.

For even easier beginnings:

• A shorter ALU V2 65 MAST: less height is ideal for learning with confidence. It’s also a good option for shallow spots or for getting kids started.

For continuous progression:

• An additional FLUID FRONT WING. In order to step things up with more speed and maneuverability.
• A HARNESS, a HARNESS HOOK and a HARNESS LINE, to spare your arms in long sessions and keep maximum energy for maneuvers and tricks.

For protection and maintenance of your gear: (highly recommended option to guarantee its durability)

• GONG MANTA PLANE FOIL BAG, to protect your foil during storage or transport when mounted.
• GONG DEEP FOIL BAG: The ideal bag to store your entire foil quiver once disassembled.
• TIKAL TEF-GEL: Marine grease to protect the screws of your foil against galvanic corrosion, and thus avoid jamming the screws.

For an upgrade of your Plus wing:

• RIGID HANDLES for wings with interchangeable handles for better control.
• CARBON BOOM and a harness for even more maneuverability and commitment in full tilt speed runs.

Warning

When you practice Foil you expose yoursef to possible serious Risks. A poor mastering of a Foil can expose you to Cuts and/or Serious Bodily Harm, even Death for youself and possibley others around you.

Foiling should be practiced, in all circumstances, by taking precautions and taking into cosideration all that is involved and associated with SURF/SUP sports. Remember that a Foil is long and has an edge that could cause slicing and is capable of reaching very high speeds. Getting hit by a Foil, or hitting another, can incrue dramatic and highly unwanted consequences.

Always Foil far from others, and in waters that are secure and without obstacle.

Always wear a helmet and protective vest that assures Floatability. Always wear a full body Neoprane Wetsuit.

When handling and manipulating a Foil be careful not to cut yourself along its edges.

GONG does Not Accept and Declines any and all responsability in case of accident that implicates a GONG Foil. The practicing of this sport and the use of our equipment makes the user fully resposable for his/her actions while being a Foil User.

Warning

You must read the detailed user manual completely before using your Wing for the first time.

Be sure to have a full understanding of it. Wings can be dangerous depending on their size and the strength of the wind. You have to check the wind range of your wing so that it corresponds with conditions and your actual skill level.

For the first few sessions, never use your new Wing in its high wind range. Use your Wing in a secure environment. Take the necessary time to learn how to handle the equipment under optimum safety conditions. Never underestimate the traction power of your Wing. Even a beginner’s Wing can develop a pulling force of several hundred kilos depending on its size and the strength of the wind. Do not overestimate your abilities. Misuse can cause serious injury or death to the practitioner or others. Do not use your Wing at sea in offshore winds. Use your Wing equipped with a leash. Be careful to avoid any collision. Be extremely careful if you sail with your Wing and a board equipped with a foil. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage or damage caused by improper use of the Wing or carelessness of the user.

Dry your wing ?

Unless you end your session with a long ride in the sun and land on a pontoon, it’s rather rare to get out of the water with a completely dry wing. ? Note that there is no need to dry your wing if it is to be used regularly in salt water, as the salt protects the materials from mold.

If, however, for transport or storage reasons you want to dry them, you must absolutely avoid hanging the deflated wing by the handle on the leading edge. It’s however very practical but it is the best way to obtain a hernia on the central strut at the junction with the leading edge following the collapse of the bladder inside. The bladders are movable in the strut and the leading edge. So if you hang it up deflated to dry, the bladder can slip, or even crumple, in the strut sleeve.

So ideally, you dry your inflated wing in the shade, and at worst flat or at least with just the inflated central strut.

How to inflate your wing?

Inflating your wing while it is still rolled can cause movements and twists of the bladder which will have the effect of deforming the inflated wing or causing hernias. It is therefore essential to fully unfold your wing before inflating it using the inflation valve on the leading edge.
