Feedback from Frédéric regarding the Neutra in Dacron construction and in its boom-only version.
Wing foiler: Francesco, GONG team rider, on his Stunt FSP Pro, Neutra Boom Perf Series, and Fluid V3 foil.
Precision and finesse of the Neutra Boom’s handling
“🎉Testing continues with the new GONG Neutra Perf Boom 5m – 2025
📍Lac de Soustons | 🌬️ Wind: 0 to 22 knots | ⚖️ 90 kg
💼 Setup: Lethal 80L 2025 + Fluid M V3 910cm²
First session with this Neutra Boom 5m Perf Series 2025 version, in light to moderate conditions on Lake Soustons, and let’s just say, it already left a great impression. 💙
The big innovation this year? A boom wing directly inspired by the Team Series, but using softer materials to maintain accessibility and forgiveness.
✅ Integrated boom on a slimmer strut: top-notch steering precision
✅ Intuitive hand placement: glides effortlessly
✅ Playful and smooth behavior: perfect for those who want to progress without tensing up.”
Neutra or Droid Boom?
“ ➡️ Tested only in freeride and freestyle for now, and already a real pleasure.
Compared to the Droid Boom Perf Series, which I tested the day before in the same conditions, the Neutra felt lighter and more flexible, despite the same inflation pressure.
This is probably due to its thinner profile, giving it a more airborne and responsive feel—a real asset for freefly.
🔁 In comparison:
• Less physically demanding than the Droid
• More intuitive
• Feels more 'alive' in the hands
• Very stable even in gusts
🙌 And as always, a great session shared with François-Xavier and the passionate community of Lake Soustons.
📌 I can’t wait to test it in the waves, where it’s supposed to really shine. 🌊
In summary: a highly accomplished wing stylish, technical yet accessible, with huge potential for wave riding, freefly, and overall progression.👌”
