The smooth and precise wing for surfing and riding with total fluidity.
The Neutra Perf 2026 is the perfect wing for modern wave riding and cool freeride, offering total versatility in grip options.
It’s the softest and smoothest in the range, the one that completely fades away at key moments to let you focus on surfing or free flying. Its neutrality is legendary, and for 2026 it gains more power and dynamism to match today’s riding expectations. You can now harness the wing more in the waves, like a windsurf sail, while still keeping its unique ability to disappear when surfing.
The 2026 shape marks a major evolution. For a 4.5 m², the wingspan decreases by 25 cm, huge. The squarer tips add stability and are set further back to improve control and maneuverability. The chord lengthens (+6 cm on a 4.5 m²) to generate more torque and usable power. As a result, inertia is reduced, compactness is increased, and the low-end range is extended, giving more reactivity in committed bottom turns and greater ease in every phase of navigation.
The leading edge is more curved and more set back near the tips, with improved segmentation that ensures perfectly even behavior. Under load, the tips can twist—but always in a controlled way—delivering steady, precise, well-balanced traction. This new stability keeps the power exactly where you want it, without unwanted variations, for clean and predictable handling.
The profile is slightly deeper than before, delivering more drive and acceleration while still being fully neutralizable when you depower. This allows you to use a smaller surface in the waves, take off more easily—especially with a small foil—and handle gusts with complete ease. The feeling in the hands remains highly refined: smooth, responsive, and comfortable.
Depending on your preferences, you can set up the Neutra Perf Series 2026 with textile handles for more flexibility and comfort when absorbing impacts, use rigid handles for ultra-precise control, or switch to a boom for total control of your wing, even one-handed. Switching from one system to another is easy. Just screw or unscrew four small bolts on the adapter pieces supplied with each system. Unlike other brands, our full-strut strap mounting system is extremely strong and does not wear out over time. The rigid handle, boom, and textile handle systems are sold separately, so everyone only buys what they actually need.
Depending on your preference, you can replace these handles with a boom for continuous control, or opt for textile handles for more flexibility and comfort in gusts. Switching between systems is as simple as screwing or unscrewing four small bolts on the adapters, supplied with each system. Unlike other brands, our strap-based attachment system—wrapping the entire strut—is ultra-strong and does not wear out over time. Boom and textile handle systems are sold separately, so each rider only buys what they truly need.
Another advantage: this version packs into a compact backpack, similar in size to a kite bag, making it practical for daily transport. A real plus for travelers or anyone wanting to minimize bulk.
Please note that with this version, you will need to purchase an optional boom or light boom bag to store your wing when assembled with a boom.
Built with Dacron, featuring advanced stitching and optimized reinforcements, the Neutra Perf 2026 combines strength and durability. More breathable and softer than Aramid, it still delivers a surprisingly close level of performance to an Aramid 2025, while offering accessible and forgiving handling. The Perf technology guarantees outstanding solidity and maximum durability, allowing you to ride session after session without worrying about the gear.
The Neutra Perf 2026 is all about the joy of a compact, powerful, and intuitive wing, adapting to all your needs and taking you further, higher, and longer—whatever your ambitions.
This wing is equipped with our ingenious GFS feature (GONG Fastening System) of interchangeable handles, allowing you to change the handles according to your preferences and your program, as well as according to the conditions.
With just two turns of a key, you can upgrade your wing based on your needs, switching from your handles supplied with your wing (textile on Plus, rigid on Neutra and Droid) to the other handles or our carbon boom.
A true innovation designed to enhance your experience, enabling you to adapt your wing to your skill level, your sensations, and the type of session.
The wing is delivered without handles, so please make sure to add your handle system or your boom when placing your order.
At GONG, backward compatibility is at the core of our development philosophy. No customer should ever be left without a solution. That’s why we worked hard to offer you booms that remain compatible with our first 2023 GFS wings.
More than a promise, it’s a fact. No adapter needed. Simply remove your 2023 boom and replace it with this superb Clip In boom.
On this version of the Neutra, we significantly improved several aspects of the shape.
The redistribution of the segmentation with 4 short sections on the tips boosts maneuverability and glide in the air. It spins faster and carves harder. This also allows the wing to roll better on the water during difficult trick landings or in foam when coming down from airs. The tips are more progressive, giving the wing a more forgiving feel and reducing the ON/OFF effect.
On this version of the Neutra, we significantly improved several aspects of the shape.
The leading edge has been set back, which reduces the surface area at the tips and recenters the wing’s power. This gives a much lighter feel and speeds up wing rotation during maneuvers and tricks.
Our wings are manufactured in our factory, one of the two biggest kite and wing factories in the world, built to our quality standards to produce the best wings.
Each wing is constructed with meticulous attention to detail. The panels are precisely cut using CNC technology. Strategic reinforcements are sewn together by robotic sewing machines, ensuring perfect assembly even in large quantities. The final sealing is done by hand, carried out by top-tier professionals in the kite industry. Lastly, each wing goes through rigorous quality control, including a 24-hour inflation test.
The materials we use for our wings are some of the finest available. While performance is our primary focus, we also prioritize durability, reparability, and the use of proven materials that have stood the test of time.

The Neutra is designed for riders seeking a light, responsive, and ultra-high-performance wing, without sacrificing accessibility. Whether you’re a motivated beginner, a seasoned rider, or an expert chasing finesse, this wing adapts to everyone thanks to its forgiving and intuitive design.
You don’t need the physique of a lumberjack or the stamina of a marathon runner to unlock its potential. The Neutra breathes with you, supports your progress, and helps you improve effortlessly.
The Neutra Perf shines in every aspect of waveriding:
Take-offs between waves: its lightweight build makes pumping easy and intuitive, while the rounded tips help flip the wing smoothly between foamy sections.
Intuitive surfing: precise, fluid handling lets you carve radical lines without ever cramping your style.
Jumps: it delivers enough lift to launch, with a solid core stiffness for big height and glide. The rounded tips also help with clean landings, ready for the next move.
Maneuvers: smooth and discreet in flight, it keeps transitions under control—tacks, jibes, 360s… everything flows naturally.
It’s also an outstanding freefly wing, perfect for cruising without constraints, with breathtaking neutrality. Let it disappear when you glide, then instantly tap back into power the moment you need it.
Bonus: While it shines downwind, one of its biggest assets is its impressive upwind ability—so you can string together downwind runs without compromise.
Neutra: Ideal for those who prioritize surfing and smooth gliding.
Droid: Powerful, compact, and agile, it’s perfect for freestyle addicts. Ideal for those who like it strong, it’s perfect for throwing tricks and going all out in freeride, while still excelling in surfing.
Each model has its own personality, but they all share a common goal: to provide you with the best experience on the water, with style and performance.
Plus: A versatile, accessible wing designed for progression.
Droid: Explosive power for surfing and freestyle.
Neutra: The fluid wing for surfing, freefly, and endless carving.
Whether you're a beginner or an expert, the Neutra is here to enhance your riding. Light, smooth, and precise: simply irresistible.


Don’t overestimate the power of wings. A rider weighing 85kg will need 15-20 knots with a 5m² wing to fly at first. After about fifteen sessions, they will be able to fly at 15 knots with a 5m². And if they are athletic, they will pump hard and lift off at 12 knots in 5m² to get through lulls at 8 knots. This is a learning process and takes time.

The choice of leading edge material depends mainly on your program and goals. If you prefer cruising in freeride, are just starting tricks, or enjoy surf and freefly, a Dacron leading edge and central strut will be ideal.
If, on the other hand, you love riding hard with a wing that pulls powerfully and will fly sky high, don’t hesitate! The UPE Aramid will provide absolute stiffness with undeniable advantages. The performance gap is significant—it goes faster, higher, and turns incredibly well thanks to its thinner diameters.
Finally, to push even further into the performance realm, combine the UPE Aramid structure with the ultra-rigid Code X canopy fabric. You’ll boost your performance by 15%, reaching the pinnacle of high-level wing performance.

The Neutra wing works with everything but pairs especially well with a compact, lightweight board—or a Cruzader for light wind.
Here are the typical pairings:
Cruzader for light wind
Mint for freeride
Stunt for freestyle
Mint, a short Cruzader, a Squash or a Lethal for freefly
Lethal for surf
Naturally, it’s best matched with a performance-oriented foil, with an 85cm mast. Ideal foil pairings:
Veloce HDW or Sirus for light wind
Fluid for freeride
Ypra Surf-Freestyle for freestyle
Veloce for freefly
Curve or Fluid for surf
To complete the setup, you can (and should) add a SUP or a surf foil for no-wind days, a kite to get airborne and probably a quiver of surfboards for those perfect waves. But if you’re venturing into wing foiling, chances are you already have some of these toys in your garage.
A wing leash from 5'5" to 8' is ideal. Preferably one designed specifically for winging, and of the coiled-type leash style. A short leash makes it easier to grab the wing quickly. A long leash keeps the wing further away from foil drops in the sail, giving it more space to move.
Always check its condition before each session and replace it every year. It’s your life vest.
Don’t let your wing flap around in the wind at the end of the leash, it’s not indestructible! Also, in the waves, don’t hold onto the wing with the leash, it will break or you may injure yourself.
When riding the Neutra, the harness is really not essential. It’s a great wing with bare hands.
Riding without a harness feels liberating as you have full freedom of movement. It’s a very pleasant feeling.
That being said, you’ll need to use a smaller wing and do shorter reaches to avoid tiring out your arms. This also means you'll have to pump frequently to take off again.
All our wings come with harness line attachments.
This gives you the option to use a harness or not.
Therefore, if you prefer to ride powered up, using a harness is almost essential if you don’t want your sessions to be cut short after an hour. Setting up the harness lines is very easy (refer to our tutorials on the forum). We suggest using the least rigid and most minimal harness, with either a small hook or a windsurf-style hook for better comfort.
Lengths of 24 to 28 cm between the strut and the V-shape’s end will be perfect.
A length of 30 to 32 cm makes learning easier. A small diameter line and a thin sheath are essential, as windsurfing lines, for example, are too heavy and rigid, making them dangerous during tacks and other tricks.
So it’s up to you to decide if the sensation and aesthetics take priority over performance. But more and more riders are using harnesses, as the trend is towards more powerful wings and higher performance.

The choice is yours, but the trend towards the boom is clear:
Soft textile handles for beginners, for surfing, for freefly, to protect yourself and the board, and for a very light wing.
Semi-rigid textile handles for a good level of performance thanks to precise and responsive handling, as well as better energy transmission during pumping, for example.
Carbon rigid handles to keep it light and generate stronger traction. Handling is extremely precise. The pistol grip on the front handle is very comfortable and practical.
Boom for maximum power and a true “windsurf” sensation. You have the freedom to grip the wing as you wish. It allows for more tricks and a broader range of use, all while being very lightweight, contrary to what you might think.
Handles offer very compact storage in a backpack, while the boom is stored lengthwise. However, it's worth noting that you can fit just as many boom wings as handle wings in a board bag. The boom doesn’t take up more space, it just occupies it differently.


Wings without windows are less expensive, 200g lighter, and more compact for storage.
Wings with windows are safer, more rigid, and offer quicker responsiveness.
For beginners, a wing with windows is essential because safety takes priority over the few grams you might lose. The windows are not for sightseeing: they are designed to let you see a silhouette to prevent executing a dangerous turn that could cause a collision.
Two discreetly placed harness attachments on the strut let you connect your GONG harness line, allowing you to ride for long hours without fatigue.

Almost rigid, it greatly enhances the control of the wing in both freefly and surfing.
The new oval stitching and reinforcements on the downwind handle anchor points help distribute the forces more evenly across the leading edge, ensuring long-lasting durability.
The Dyneema leash attachment is now located on the intrados side of the DW handle, preventing the leash from getting in the way while freeflying.

The leading edge and central strut are connected by the One Pump system for quick inflation in one go. The clip then locks the airflow between the bladders to ensure the wing’s buoyancy in case of a leak in the strut or leading edge. This feature is vital for safety.
The inflation valve on the leading edge is doubled on the strut for immediate deflation and compact storage. Using One Pump, you inflate through the leading edge only in a few seconds and deflate just as quickly by unscrewing both valves.

Micro fiberglass battens on the trailing edge: light and very effective in preventing flapping. They maintain the profile all the way to the trailing edge for optimal airflow.
Lightweight and strong, they are easily replaceable to keep your wing in top condition year after year.

To capture your wing sessions, we’ve added a discreet nylon leash attachment on each tip and near the strut to secure your camera mounted on the leading edge or strut with a Flymount, allowing you to ride without stress. The leash attachment is strategically placed so it doesn’t interfere with your camera’s field of view! You’ll be able to create stunning shots and share them without the risk of losing your camera!

A repair kit, including bladder patches and fabric, is included with your wing.
A durable and practical backpack comes with your wing. It’s perfectly designed with a large U-shaped zipper for easy storage, a ventilation grid, comfortable padding, compression straps, and straps for the pump (not provided).
Don't forget to bring a pump!
Please note that this bag, which comes as standard, is not designed to hold a wing with a boom attached. You can purchase a boom bag or a light boom bag as an option.
