The radical, fast and maneuverable wings.
Introduction
The Fluid is halfway between a very fast Veloce and a Curve dedicated to curves.
If you’re keen on curves but want to take it up a notch, the Fluid is just what you need.
With its lightning top speed, each action is boosted. The driving is as radical as you want and you alone set the limit. You can tighten the curves or go full throttle. And the more it accelerates the more it lifts and asks for more.
With its fine points and curved leading edge, we have a hyper intuitive and progressive rail to rail under our feet. This wing is really “curve” oriented.
The Fluid really is the limitless front wing in surfing and tricks.
To fully understand the range : Fluids have a high and fast ratio as standard. Unlike the other ranges, we have declined the intermediate sizes called S for Small by reducing the ratio. Indeed, speed is omnipresent on the Fluid, but some will want even more maneuverability by turning to the S which will be more compact.
Understand each wing in detail
The S has a 61 cm wingspan, 650 cm2, 1,0 cm thick for a volume of 0,3L.
- In surf foil, it’s getting very small. Perfect for tow-in.
- In wing it’s tiny. Pro riders only when the wind is nuking or for racing.
- In kite foil, it’s a radical wing for the best top speed and handling.
The MS has a 66 cm wingspan, 800 cm2, 1,2 cm thick for a volume of 0,5L.
- In surf foil, it’s a tiny wing for the pros, the lightweight and tow-in. The best in terms of speed / handling combo because it remains easy.
- In wing it’s tiny but perfect for a very good and lightweight rider who wants to carve at high speed and jump high in the strong wind.
- In kite foil, it is a key wing for a lot of riders who want a fast and very responsive wing.
The M is 71 cm wide, 900 cm², 1.5 cm thick for a volume of 0.7L.
- In surf foil, it’s a very small front wing for pros, lightweight and tow in. It is super manoeuvrable but very healthy.

- In wing it is perfect for a resourceful rider who wants to fly early, go fast, surf aggressively, carve cool but efficient, work his transitions, put on tricks in glide, do excellent DWs, with a great low range.
- In kite foil: forget it, it’s too big.
The XXL-S is 96 cm wide, 1750 cm², 2.2 cm thick for a volume of 2.0L.
- In surf foil, this is a very large wing which is suitable for lightweight dock / beach starters, but especially strong ones who want a load-bearing wing that is very easy to pump and which remains maneuverable. The pumping / handling compromise is ideal for strong foilers. You can do 100kg and go over great distances in pumping, do 5 waves without throwing up. It’s great in soft waves.
- In wing this size starts to be very large. It’s perfect for flying very, very early, going faster than a beginner wing, surfing very soft waves, working your transitions, doing DWs, with an unbeatable low range.
- In kite foil: forget it, it’s too big.
The XXL is 101 cm wingspan, 1850 cm², 2.2 cm thick for a volume of 2.1L.
- In surf foil, it’s a very tall, slender kite that is suitable for big guys. You can go over great distances in pumping. It’s a super efficient wing in surfing due to its great finesse, and it is a hit in very soft waves.
- In wing this size is very large. Great in light wind.
- In kite foil: same, it’s too big.
Understand their shapes
The best mix of speed and maneuverability for a smooth and radical ride.
A round general outline, fine tips, and a concentrated volume make this wing a machine for curves. With its high ratio and moderate thickness, the Fluid scores big in top speed. To top it off, its close to zero camber gives it that sharpness we love when riding.
The magical distribution of the surface on this very smooth outline maximizes passage from one rail to another. And the small tip surface gives a lot of control at high speed. We’re in control, so we’re going big!
Our shaper, Patrice Guénolé, exacerbated the characters in each size to get the most out of each range of use. Small wings are therefore suitable for high speeds and large ones at lower speeds. The criterion of choice is therefore not only the size of the foiler.
Safety issue, the ends have an almost flat and thick face to limit the risk of injury. Ideal for performance would be a sharp shape. We refuse to do this. The peak vortex is therefore slightly higher but it is better to have a wing that flies at 25 knots instead of 27 knots but which does not pierce your stomach if you fall on it. The shape of the tips of the Fluid is not sharp but it’s thinner than on the other wings in the surf range. We draw your attention to this point because without being sharp, they represent a real danger for you and others in the event of a collision. You must do everything possible to avoid having an accident, of which you are responsible and probably the victim.
Construction
Our wings are made of 90% Prepreg 3K carbon, with over 15 layers of fiber in total. High stress points like joints and connections are reinforced with Kevlar to resist tearing and with glass for tolerance. High pressure and high temperature molded on a foam core, our wings are virtually indestructible. Both rigid and floating, they‘re the perfect balance between low weight and infinite durability.
All of our wings and stabs have soft “tips”. Their ends are rounded and voluminous to limit the danger. We invite you to exercise the utmost caution nonetheless. Likewise, the trailing edges are blunt so as not to be sharp.
Note: These front wings are compatible with our V1, V2, PRO and Titanium fuselages.
Your benefits are clear:
1. An efficient shape created by one of the leaders in the world of foiling.
2. A design at the cutting edge of R&D and ahead of its time.
3. Proven construction on thousands of foils.
4. Full Option finishing at a great price.
5. A light and solid foil with one of the best technos on the market!!!
6. An incredible price that can only be explained by our direct relationship with you.

Buying guide
For whom?
It takes a good level to appreciate it. It’s not a difficult wing, quite the contrary. But it’s a wing that requires commitment to get to its highest level of performance. A technical background is required.
- In surf foil, you must have an intermediate level because this foil is not as tolerant at low speed as beginner foils like the Rise or the X-over are. With this minimum level and more, you will have a blast.
- In wing, the Fluid is close to the Grail. If you have the level to fly with thin wings, therefore a very efficient pumping, it will propel you into another dimension.
- In kite foil, the Fluid can be your beginner’s wing, provided you have good knowledge of gliding. It is nevertheless recommended to the experienced to get the most out of it.
For what?
Radical and limitless drive, on the border between surfing and freestyle.
Its top speed allows it to excel in race with an exceptional performance in low range in particular.
- In surf foil, it’s really great with a natural glide that generates lift and record handling. You can alternate between super tight curves and incredible acceleration.
- In wing, it is the most radical wing in surf and freestyle riding.It goes fast and is great for tricks. In surfing it feels like velvet as the name suggests.
- In kite foil, the Fluid goes fast and connects the curves. The more you ask for it, the more it speeds up and into the curves. Best of all, it’s a gem in tricks. It’s all up to you.
What size ?
The S has a 61 cm wingspan, 650 cm2, 1,0 cm thick for a volume of 0,3L.
- In surf foil, it’s getting very small. Perfect for tow-in.
- In wing it’s tiny. Pro riders only when the wind is nuking or for racing.

- In wing: it’s big but nice under 12 knots.
- In kite foil: forget.
You will use a larger foil in low ranges, soft conditions. And conversely a smaller foil in those recommended for muscular conditions. The important thing to remember is that the choice of your wing depends on your size which requires lift and your average speed which generates lift.
When pumping from dock start or beach start, we recommend the wings as follows:
- The M, the L-S, the L: forget them for dock starts, it’s pointless.
- The XL-S: less than 55kg.
- The XL: less than 75kg.
- The XXL-S: less than 95kg.
- The XXL: above 95kg.
In DW, we tend to think that the bigger front wing is the more efficient. With some moderation though, but yes that is often the rule.
Quiver partners ?
The Fluid foil is ideal with all the perf boards.
Positioning of the foil ?
For the GONG foils, place the top plate at the rear third of the US rails for surf, SUP and kite. Place it in the middle of the US rails when using it with a wing foil.
The more you move it forward, the more it makes the board pitch up. The further you move it backwards, the more the nose of the board dives.
Be careful not to move it too far forward. We often tend to forget to use the back foot, especially when we have a kite foil background. However, moving the foil back a little forces you to put more weight on the back foot and gives a more harmonious attitude and reduces effort.

Warning:
The practice of the Foil carries risks of major accidents. A bad mastery of the Foil can cause cuts, serious wounds, even death, for you and/or others.
The Foil must be practiced taking all the precautions when used in Kite because they are increased in comparison to those related to the Foilsurf. Remember that the Foil is long, sharp, and can reach high speeds. To be hit by a Foil, or to strike a third party can have dramatic consequences.
Foil always far from others, in safe and unobstructed water.
The Foil is mainly used in the light wind. This one can fall and force you to go swimming. Therefore, do not overestimate your strengths: never go further than what you can swim under present and announced conditions.
Wear a helmet and protective jacket to ensure your buoyancy. Always wear a full neoprene wetsuit.
When handling the foil, be careful not to cut yourself on the trailing edges.
GONG declines all responsibility in the event of an accident involving a GONG Foil. The Foil practice and its benefits/consequences is under the sole responsibility of the Foil user.
