Its construction and finish make it a top-of-the-range helmet:

High density certified ABS shell whose strengths are lightness and resistance.
EVA foam interior: – dual density engineered for shock absorption, – waterproof so as not to soak up water and therefore weight, – cold preformed for excellent shape memory.

Warning

Foiling involves significant risks of accidents. Poor control of a foil can result in cuts, serious injuries, or even death, to yourself or others.

Foiling must be practiced with all the usual precautions required for surfing/SUP, plus those specific to foiling. Remember that a foil is long, sharp, and can reach high speeds. Being hit by a foil, or hitting someone else, can have dramatic consequences.

Always foil far away from others, in safe, obstacle-free waters.

Wear a helmet and a protective vest that ensures buoyancy. Always wear a full neoprene wetsuit.

When handling the foil, be careful not to cut yourself on the trailing edges.

GONG disclaims all liability in the event of an accident involving a GONG foil. Foiling is practiced entirely at the user’s own risk.

DISPUTES AND LIABILITY

GONG SUP 1 cannot be held liable for failure to perform the contract in cases of force majeure as defined by the courts, nor in the event of fault by the customer or due to unforeseeable and insurmountable actions of a third party to the contract. GONG SUP 1 shall not be held responsible for consequences resulting from improper use of products sold on the Site.

Although our products have performance levels compatible with professional use, GONG SUP 1 is not intended to sell to professionals.

The risks associated with these sports largely depend on compliance with fundamental safety rules, right-of-way rules, and local regulations applicable at each spot.

It is the responsibility of each GONG SUP 1 product user to ensure they are covered by at least third-party liability insurance, if necessary by subscribing to a sports license.

Maintenance, usage, and safety instructions are provided in the user manual supplied with each product. It can also be downloaded via the following link or from the GONG-GALAXY.COM website. This manual is an integral part of the present contract and constitutes a full annex. You acknowledge that you have read it carefully.

Special mention for “foil” products

Foiling, regardless of the equipment used, involves particular risks. Without prejudice to the product user manual, it is essential to follow a few simple rules:

Wear a protective vest and a helmet. Foils include blunt edges necessary for proper function but which present real danger in case of impact. As a rider, you are the most exposed to this risk. You must therefore use appropriate certified protective equipment and avoid putting yourself in risky situations. Your behavior determines your level of risk.
Except for kiteboards, always equip your board with a leash at least equal in length to the board, as well as footstraps. These elements prevent the board from being completely released toward other users. Never ride closer to others than the combined distance of your leash, your board length, and your drift in case of a fall. You must never allow a third party into this radius, which defines your danger zone.
Only practice in spots suitable for foiling (safe water entry, no shorebreak, even seabed, appropriate wind direction, etc.) and not frequented by other water sports users. The speeds reached by a foil require riding alone or among other foilers, in an environment where everyone can anticipate each other’s trajectories.
Strictly respect right-of-way rules, especially since inertia and maneuverability differ from traditional boards, particularly for beginners. Courtesy and responsibility must guide your behavior to avoid dangerous situations that could lead to accidents.
Pay attention to other users of the water, even if they do not have priority in your area (they may underestimate your speed and danger zone). Never practice near children or beginners, as their reactions may be unpredictable. Your liability would be fully engaged. GONG SUP provides all necessary information to warn you of risks and explain recommended practice conditions. Ignoring these guidelines puts you, others, and the GONG SUP brand image at risk.
Be aware of water depth. The presence of a foil extending several dozen centimeters below your board is a new factor for many riders, even experienced ones. Damage caused by contact with the seabed is not covered by warranty.
Maintain and regularly check your equipment, and do not make any technical modifications other than those provided by GONG-GALAXY products and solutions. Never sharpen trailing edges, as they could become dangerous for you and cut the leash, preventing it from retaining the board.

It is strongly recommended to begin foiling in a structured learning environment, within an accredited club or school, and to read all our articles on the GONG forum. This will help you achieve sufficient autonomy and a clear understanding of the challenges involved in foiling.
