Feedback from Rose on our GONG Galaxy Facebook group who, in addition to ecological logistics to get to the spot with the HIPE, shares first impressions about the Neutra RH:
Wing foiler : Malo, GONG team rider, with the HIPE Pro, Neutra RH, HM 85 mast, Ypra M-S and Fluid H Pro stab.“I have an intermediate level and I was looking for ease, comfort and safety in strong winds above 25 knots. I liked my 4m Plus 2021 a lot but in the high range with gusts at 30-35 knots it’s not the perfect match. Irregular side-off mistral gusts are a common thing here. I tested the Neutra RH with my HIPE 5’3 and Curve L (new for me too, usually using the XL).Quality and construction: remarkable. The handles are thinner than I thought (much thinner than a kite bar) and the rear grip length is perfect for positioning the hand.About the comfort and ease in irregular winds ranging from 20 knots – 35 knots: in line with my expectations, the profile is very stable, the upwind is sensational and the jibing is super comfortable. That’s exactly what I was looking for: to feel good in these tough conditions without feeling like I’m in survival mode.”
