Buying guide
For whom?
The shape of this Board makes it ideal for experienced or sporty rowers. Nothing insurmountable because the width is reasonable and the outline gives a little margin in front of the feet to attack each stroke of the paddle without restraint.
However, we don’t recommend it if you are a beginner.
For what?
Its program is to glide as well as possible, without becoming a crazy balancing act. It is therefore ideal on calm bodies of water.
Rowing fast, training, high tempo cruising, racing… That’s what this board likes.
What size of Couine Marie Race 14’0 Flat Water board?
Even if everything is possible, we note here the main uses:

The 12’6 x 29” Race FW:
- Outings of less than an hour and a half on calm water.

Understanding the GONG range ?
What is the difference between our First range and Couine Marie range ?
Best Quiver choices?
This Board goes with a Carbon Pro GONG Paddle cut to the right size, and a top of the range Fiberglass or Carbon Fin.
Think about your personal equipment for your comfort with the adapted wetsuit, water, energy bars… and therefore the bag that fits well. But think also and especially about your safety because on this subject it is better to have too much means than not enough (mirror, lights, towing end, survival blanket etc…).
What length of paddle?
The way you paddle, your stance and the frequency at which you paddle will depend on your program. You will need a longer paddle for touring for multiple hours, while you would need a shorter paddle for surfing in order to facilitate quick and strong paddle strokes to catch a wave. Take your time to pick the right length/setting for your paddle, because it will help give you the stability and performance you will need.
Examples:
For a 100% surfing session, set your paddle between your waist and +10cm.
For more relaxed surfing, a +10cm paddle will be perfect.
For a ride, set your paddle between +10 and +20cm.
Which leash?
For the Couine Marie Race Flat Water range, a 10′ leash is ideal. Depending on your preferences, you can choose an ankle or a knee leash.
Check its condition before each session and change it every year. This is your life jacket.
Good to know:
Never leave your board in the sun, let alone an inflatable board which will heat up very quickly. You risk seeing it peel off because the materials it is made of become flexible in the heat. Never store it under a car window, or in contact with a heat source.
Never let your board get roughed up in the waves, especially when you’re close to the beach. You have to protect it from major strains. A wave that takes your board and rolls it can do damage.
Do not hold it by the leash indefinitely because it can give way under very high tension. Avoid big waves and don’t resist. If it breaks, it’s easy to change but annoying.
Stay away from oysters: this is one of the few seashells that can cut your board and sink it in seconds. Be careful +++
Don’t let your inflatable board rub on something for a long time. It can happen on a boat, for example, that your board moves with each wave and rubs for hours in the same place. The material will disintegrate because it will be as sanded. You will have a hole that will need to be covered with a patch.
Never put the board between the wave and you: risk of a broken nose type injury ?
Do not paddle far at sea with an offshore wind, and avoid windy outings as it is rarely fun and always dangerous. SUP is an activity that involves real risks, even in seemingly peaceful conditions. Always anticipate these risks and protect yourself.
Equipments
Our Couine Marie range is the Full Options version of inflatable boards, the very best out there.
The Couine Marie Race Flat Water comes with a US central fin because the objective of the Couine Marie range is to have a high performance SUP. When we know that the fin makes 50% of the performance of a board, GONG had to come up with a relevant solution. This is why our inflatable SUPs offer a US box for the center fin. Thus, you will have access to the largest standard on the high-end fin market. A huge choice of fins to adapt according to your level, your practice and the conditions.
It is equipped with all the high-end accessories:
- A new ultra-worked Velvet Traction Pad which now equips all our top-end boards;
- A central padded handle in soft neoprene;
- Ergonomic silicone racing carrying handles;
- A front handle to exit the water more easily;
- Our ELS feature for very simply and firmly attaching bags / bottles etc. to your board;
- A fin with a quality shape and a US box compatible with all the best fins;
- A spacious and robust wheeled bag.
It is equipped with four carrying handles to grab it easily.
- A central padded and neoprene handle to carry the board under your arm.
- Two ergonomic silicone race handles in the front third that allow you to either pass the foams by pulling the board, or to get out of the water by dragging the board over the water.
- A front handle for entering the water and for handling the board in the water or on land. Really practical!
The Couine Marie SUP boards are now equipped with our ELS feature (Extendable Load System). These adjustable, elastic and aesthetic straps have been specially designed to allow you to easily install all your equipment on board.
We have made using the ELS system extremely easy and intuitive. The elastic straps are easy to adjust. No more struggle to slip (sometimes in vain) your bag under the bungee cords at the risk of crushing your stuff. Simply loosen the straps, install your gear, and retighten them to perfectly fix your load.
Our ELS feature simplifies your life and saves you precious time while bringing a touch of style and modernity to your board!
The large diameter leash ring is the strongest on the market. And we’ve added a towing ring for safety, but also because it’s really handy to have an attachment point on the nose during transport, at anchor, or to secure a camera.
The new 5 mm Traction Velvel Pad is particularly designed to be even more comfortable. Very aesthetic, it offers a perfect grip and a velvet touch! The feeling is ultra soft and you can feel the board perfectly under your feet. The board is all the more responsive. Long sessions without tiring or slipping are all yours!
The supplied double-action inflation pump is super efficient to be the first in the water.
A repair kit is also included in the event of damage (note the kit is delivered without glue which you will easily find in your DIY store). Note that we have the components of your board in stock in order to repair it fairly easily.
Everything comes in a super practical and solid rolling carry bag.
- The wheels are on the opposite side to the carrying face so as not to pinch your buttocks when walking and not to roll on the carrying straps.
- These backpack straps are very padded and comfortable.
- The handles are super strong and comfy.
- The large front pocket allows you to store your accessories and personal effects without risking losing them.
- And the compression straps keep the bag volume to a minimum.
Nothing is missing!
