GEAR : feedback Hellvator !!!

Christophe shares with us his impressions of the GONG Hellvator foil. “hi all, Small feedback about my session yesterday:
Obligation to make loops out of the water and put me in balance on the board then the sensations described in my previous post are confirmed. very comfortable despite the terribly irregular wind (6 to 16nds) .. I can do instantly mount the foil in order to accelerate and create wind speed in my kite. I went in really glassy air holes (wind off) it’s amazing, conditions of wake.
A new feeling is that the rear strap to much more interest than with the foil gong.
On the other foil, I loved having the free rear foot to be able to move forward when it accelerates and the front fender start pushing in the legs.
Because of this different balance, the effect is quite the opposite and therefore the back foot ensconced in the strap can really play with this one, and support to increase rather as acceleration.
Also first curves into straight lines. It’s really playful. to “roll” along the dull demand more downforce than the others foil I tested (matt 85 or 90) but after a while you get used 🙂 and really enjoys having fun.
Well at the end, I got back a little swim because no wind 0knts.” Foiler : Christophe avec sa GONG kite 5’5 Matata fiol et GONF foil Hellvator. Source : Team GONG Kite, foiling is good for you.
