The accessible single-skin lowkite for safe learning and progression! It’s the perfect kite to dive into the exciting world of lowkites.

Presentation

The GONG Plus lowkite is the ultimate gateway to lowkiting.

Simple, reassuring, and efficient, it offers a whole new way to glide on a foil—replacing a paddle and making your first steps in this challenging sport much easier.

As the first generation of lowkites, the Plus lowkite was designed to make learning smooth and intuitive. Its single-skin construction, combined with a pronounced arc and short bridle, ensures outstanding stability in the air—perfect for focusing on those first take-offs without worrying about an unstable kite.

Thanks to its deep profile and wide tips, it delivers smooth, consistent power for effortless take-offs and optimal control in underpowered conditions. To get the best out of it, pair it with a high-lift foil and a board with good glide, so you don’t need to overpower this single-skin lowkite.

Super light and compact, the Plus lowkite packs easily into a bag or under a rashy, making it easier to get past the break and letting you make the most of your session once you're out on the water. Its convenient design makes it the perfect choice for riders who want an accessible and easy-to-transport solution as it doesn’t take up much space in a boardbag or luggage when traveling.

The Plus lowkite’s uninflated design removes the hassle of bladders, such as punctures or pressure loss, and makes maintenance much easier. As a single-skin kite, it won’t soak up water, making it easy to handle on the water. Its bright color adds an extra layer of safety, perfect for your first sessions. With its reliability and simplicity, it’s the perfect option to get started with confidence.

With the Plus lowkite, you’ll experience a whole new level of glide: instant take-offs, solid stability, and intuitive maneuverability. It allows you to enjoy bumps and long glides on the foil without the usual constraints of paddle-powered sessions. This model acts like a real catapult, propelling you efficiently onto your foil and paving the way for smooth, effortless glide.

Contrary to popular belief, riding with a lowkite requires some practice. But the Plus is the perfect tool to help you get past the learning curve. After about ten sessions, you’ll be fully in control of this kite, able to tackle everything from your first take-offs to epic downwinds, and even underpowered rides on a large board.

The Plus lowkite, as an entry-level model, is a true example of GONG’s innovation. Compact, stable, and easy to use, it makes this groundbreaking sport accessible to everyone.

The GONG Plus lowkite lets you dive into a sport that’s still in its early days but already incredibly exciting, offering instant fun and limitless possibilities.

Maximum stability

The Plus lowkite has been designed to offer unparalleled stability in the air. Its pronounced arc and short bridle ensure smooth, predictable behavior, even for a single-skin kite. This configuration allows beginners to focus entirely on their balance and board, without having to manage an unstable kite.

The kite stays steady, providing smooth, consistent power, with no sudden shifts that could throw you off during takeoff. Once in flight, it maintains an excellent profile, providing steady traction with no surprises.

Carbon bar

This lowkite is a downwind lowkite, so we designed a minimalist 40cm bar made of a full carbon tube. This ergonomic tube is the same as the one used on our boom for wing foiling.

Buying guide

For whom?

The Plus lowkite is designed for riders who are new to lowkiting and are looking for a simple, secure, and accessible solution for their first sessions. It's a great choice for those who want to replace a paddle on a downwind foil board, making takeoffs smoother and offering a great way to catch the bumps with minimal effort.

This model is perfect for:

Lowkite beginners who want a progressive and intuitive approach.
Downwind foil riders wanting a lightweight and compact tool to start.
Riders seeking a stable and forgiving lowkite for sage learning.
Anyone wanting a wing that's easy to pack away and doesn't require inflation.

For what ?

The Plus lowkite is a paddle substitute, created to simplify takeoffs on a big board with a large foil. Its purpose is simple: to propel you efficiently, then store the kite and glide on the foil using the bumps.

Its primary use is downwinders, where it helps you launch effortlessly before being packed away under a rashguard or in a small bag. Its stability and smooth power also make it a great tool for first lowkite sessions, allowing you to make a few crosswind runs without stressing about having to manage the lowkite constantly.

Note: this lowkite is not designed for active navigation with sharp upwind courses. It should be used underpowered, with a lifting foil and an optimized downwind board.

What size?

The Lowkite Plus comes in sizes 2m², 3m², 4m² and 5m² . The size choice primarily depends on the rider's size and the wind conditions.

How to choose the right size?

Beginner / Safety: Opt for a larger size to ensure easier takeoff in a moderate wind conditions.
Advanced / Performance: Lighter or skilled riders can size down for better maneuverability.
Strong Winds: Smaller sizes (3m², 2m²) are ideal for stronger winds and for riders seeking more control.

Which quiver?

The Plus lowkite should be paired with a setup optimized for downwind riding, as its role is to facilitate takeoff and then be folded:

Board: A high-volume downwind foil board with great glide.
Foil: A large foil (> 1000 cm²) for quick takeoff and effortless flow without requiring excess power.
Accessories: A fitted rashguard or a small storage bag to pack the wing away once on the foil.

This setup unlocks the full potential of the Plus lowkite, maximizing smoothness and seamless transitions into pure foil gliding.

GONG lowkite range explained

The GONG lowkite range is divided into two main categories:

1. Single skins (Plus & Neutra): designed for downwind foiling and light-wind riding.

These lowkites act as a paddle replacement, helping you take off in foiling before being packed away for a pure glide experience.
Ultra-light and compact, they are perfect for quick setup and minimal gear hassle.
Plus: the most accessible, stable, and reassuring option for getting started with lowkite.
Neutra: more dynamic and precise, for riders looking for increased maneuverability and precise control.

2. Double skin (Droid & Pulse): Versatile RAM-Air Kites

Unlike single-skin models, these lowkites are designed for active riding rather than being packed away after takeoff, behaving just like a traditional kite.
They provide excellent upwind performance, controlled power, and enhanced stability thanks to their pressurized ram-air construction.
Droid: A highly versatile lowkite, ideal for freestyle surf, tricks, and aggressive riding.
Pulse: Tuned for freerace and freeride, featuring exceptional upwind ability and glide to cover long distances at high speed.

The Plus lowkite is the ideal choice for getting started with lowkite, providing maximum stability and safety to explore a new way of flying on foil—effortlessly and with instant fun. ?
