FEEDBACK: HIPE CRUZADER STRAPPED

After 6 months on the HIPE Cruzader Strapped, Adam made it his one board quiver as it perfectly handles all the conditions of his home spot.

The Cruzader in an inflatable tech

“The moment I heard GONG was coming out with an inflatable Cruzader, I put my name on the pre-order list for the 7’6″ having had such a good experience with other HIPE’s in the lineup.”

Winging with smaller and faster foils

“That was six months ago and since then I have ridden the board exclusively, I even sold my regular board as this thing works great in everything I’ve thrown at it. The early takeoff speed has encouraged me to run smaller, faster foils than I would on a shorter board, and I am now even going exploring downwind, confident I will be able to fly back to where I started if the wind drops.”

Downwinders and light winds

“My plan now is to see if I can wing upwind and downwind SUP back. A board like this is essential for any spot with inconsistent light to moderate winds!”
