GEAR : feedback GONG foil !!!

Jérôme shares with us his impressions of the GONG Hellvator foil. “Hello,
After 4 outputs I get a more informed opinion.
Superb finish with a cover too !!! Everyone wants to see it.
The foil seems very solid, in terms of upwind, I drop some big brands foil but it depends kiters.
For speed, I have not really tried. I pushed the foil speed with two wedges but the wind was very very light and I was alone.
It is true that without the wedges (beginner position), the foil is really easy but the foil decides everything !!! He rides alone on the mat, if it goes too fast it goes down all alone, I feel like co-pilot and not the driver of the foil.
I really prefer the position 2 wedges, it is more nervous. I find it easier to feel that I had with my other foils. Well, I have to try one wedge position too !!
Now the goal is to pass the Vmax of 26nds of the boss if I am not mistaken ????
I really want to wipe the foil with white spirit, it is certainly a placebo but the water slides really well on it then.
