Choose a board that is easy to travel with, without giving up stiffness on the water.

Save space in your board bag and reduce weight on the scale with a 2026 HIPE!

Their new technology has made it possible to save up to 2 kg compared with previous HIPE generations. The difference is also clear compared with a conventional sandwich-construction board. How is this possible? Through meticulous optimization of our technology and production process. The Woven Fusion Light construction of the 2026 HIPE combines carefully selected materials, an optimized ICS plate and a double Woven Drop Stitch fused without glue.

And to top it all off, your HIPE packs into a compartmented wheeled bag for all your gear.

So which one should you choose?

Because our technology makes it possible, our philosophy at GONG is to offer inflatable shapes suited to every discipline: from learning to freestyle, and from wing foiling to SUP foiling.
