To progress quickly and without difficulties in wing foiling.

Presentation

From beginners to advanced riders, the new Lance offers a unique concept of short but very wide boards to learn wing foiling with ease on a really fun board. This year we have reviewed the shape to make your learning curve even steeper.

With less than six feet long, the Lance is in the short boards range. Comfort is amazing on land and for transport! But also on the water: you don’t have that long nose in front of your feet that slows the board down. The Lance is responsive and reactive.

To maintain great stability, our major focus of attention was the width and the volume distribution. It’s been known for many years from windsurfing that width is the key element in comfort. It’s the width that will make your life easier and make the ride less physical. With the very wide width of the Lance, you have an amazing comfort. On your knees, the board doesn’t roll. It remains stable even in the chop.

Icing on the cake, this width will greatly facilitate the control of the foil at the beginning by keeping the board flat during the speed-up phases. You really feel safer with the foil under control.

The shape of the hull with a double concave on the nose dampens contact with the water and guides the board in the right direction before take off. A FCS II box under the nose to clip a fin stops the drift. It’s really easier to hold a trajectory. And you can simply remove it without any tools. You are free to use it or not, depending on your needs. We love this little extra that makes it easier for you to get started before your first flights. You can sail relaxed, in 6/8 knots of wind, and work on maneuvers on the water before doing them in the air.

Its tail releases water without restrain. Directly inspired by the Lethal’s magic tail, the new Lance takes off 2 knots earlier. It is a considerable difference as you will no longer require such a big wing or wear yourself out pumping. As soon as you hold on to the wing you feel that the Lance is just asking to fly.

In flight, the feeling is great: super lively and easy to handle. The short nose gives a lot of lightness. The stabilization of the foil in the air is natural. It’s easy to learn jibes and tacks in the air. And its absolute stability allows you to fall without exhausting yourself with every relaunch. It’s a real bonus at the start!

In 2023, a small Lance 5’6 of 105L enters the range for the lightweight and the youngest folks getting into wing foiling. For the bigger riders, the 5’9 gains 10L this year, going from 140L to 150L for absolute comfort in the learning phase.

The Lance is the queen of fun and rapid progression in wing foiling.

Shape

Sufficient width and a perfectly distributed volume are essential to facilitate your life in wing foiling. It’s also what will get you off the ground early and without having to pump like crazy. This year we worked on the width/volume balance in order to slightly refine these boards while keeping the same stability. To do so we worked on the rails to keep the same surface of contact with the water and therefore the same stability. The result is a board that is just as easy to learn but with a better glide to make the first take-offs even easier.

The hull with its double concave under the nose dampens the touchdowns by dissipating energy and guiding the board in a straight line before take-off.

The facets on the rails allow you to fly serenely without being afraid of braking hard on the slightest touchdown on a chop or in tight curves. The rails are full for great lateral stability.

The tail inherited from the Lethal is a benchmark in terms of pre-flight flow management. Your board no longer sticks before flying. It’s really released from the water surface, it’s super fun and obviously efficient. And it looks very pretty in the air.

The flat deck optimises control and the feel is directly in sync with the action.

Equipments

The set of footstraps is offered with the board. For 2023 we have reviewed the outline of our straps to further improve comfort. Developed for wing foiling, these straps with less cover do not bend when put on.

More rigid, they offer a more precise steering but are still as comfortable. There is less surface area on the feet so there is less risk of staying stuck in the straps or banging your foot on the edge of the strap when rushing into it. It also allows better leeward control (tip of the foot) and therefore a more natural attitude in wing foiling.
We have worked on every detail to improve your experience on the water.

The V-shaped footstraps perfectly center the foot on the front of the board. The position is thus more natural and allows direct and precise control in maneuvers.

For 2023, our SCS system launched on the HIPE is integrated on all our foil boards. It’s beautiful, efficient and above all it saves time you can spend on the water. With its 4 entries, the GONG double entry box facilitates the assembly and adjustment of the foil. Performance without the hassle. We leave the nuts and the screws on the plate, just insert the foil, screw and off we go! Setting up the foil is much faster and easier. It is the plug and play solution which facilitates adjustments! (inserts not supplied with the board).

A handle developed by our R&D and our ergonomics engineer has been integrated into our boards this year. We can better close our hands in it: a firmer and more comfortable grip. The depressurization screw is directly integrated into the handle.

It is placed on the hull to allow one-handed carrying. You can have the wing and the paddle in the other hand to get past the whitewater or to get out of the water. And as we always do things seriously, the handle is placed in a block of hydrophobic PVC foam and covered with fiber.

The top-of-the-range 5mm thick integral pad provides maximum grip and comfort when sailing, while protecting the board from shocks. This year we have changed the grooving to provide even more comfort and more grip. This hard brush pad sublimates the board. This flat pad provides absolute comfort and a magical grip with more precision. This is obvious on long sessions: the feet are less tired.

The central front fin Anti Drift System axes the board as if it was on rails, but without ever hindering the ability to take angle in the curves.

Construction

These boards are equipped with our WOOD 2X technology for the best strength/price compromise on the market.

The board is fully covered with a wood sandwich reinforced with a biaxial fiber on the top and bottom.

The addition of a biaxial fiber greatly strengthens the board for increased durability.

The rails are protected by wood and multiple layers of fiberglass. The top is reinforced over the entire foot passage area by high density PVC.

For 2023 we have replaced the classic US Boxes, which everyone uses but which were not originally designed for foiling, with our own US Double Entry GONG Boxes designed and tested by our design office for extreme use in foiling. These new boxes are specifically reinforced in areas of high stress and are molded with a high fiber content. Durability is increased tenfold. We are clearly on the best BOX on the market which corresponds exactly to our needs in terms of resistance and functionality. What could be simpler than aligning the 4 nuts with the 4 entrances and sliding the foil into the box? 3 turns with a screw tightener and it’s ready. It’s so easy that you’ll wonder how you could do it the old way for years hahaha.

The foil boxes are placed in a large PVC 80kg/m3 reinforcement thicker than the boxes. Without any risk of water infiltration in the EPS sandwich, even with an intense impact. This reinforcement is connected to the PVC sandwich of the deck with PVC slats to ensure the cohesion of the whole and to avoid any play in the reinforcements over the years. Everything is fitted with fiberglass reinforcements for tolerance and carbon to limit bending. The handle is also set in a waterproof PVC block.

Remember that the high density PVC blocks that house the boxes and the handle are in addition to the full PVC sandwich. The anchoring is absolutely perfect. Not to compare with a reinforcement simply held by layers of fiber. Our reinforcements take hold on a high thickness of rigid material that you would not be able to bend by hand for example, which you could if it was only layers of fibers.

The WOOD 2X gives you access to an extremely reliable technology at an unbeatable price. An entry-level product in our offer, which corresponds to the high-end construction of other brands !!

At GONG, our boards are the highest quality. Our low prices can only be explained by our direct sales model, eliminating margins. If by misfortune you break them, they can be repaired from A to Z with the components we keep in stock for your favorite repairer.

Buying guide

For whom?

Whether you’re a beginner or just cruising, this is a hassle-free board. It’s smooth and easy, yet very efficient.

Its role is to make your life easier. So a pro will probably find it too gentle.

In wing foiling, the Lance is a super accessible board for a beginner, each size corresponds to a rider size or a desire for comfort.
In big volume it is easy for SUP foiling, but in small sizes it will be necessary to be in a good physical shape or to be light.

For what?

The Lance is a pure wing foiling board, short but very stable, 100% dedicated to progression.

Getting started in wing foiling has never been so easy and enjoyable!

What size?

Beginners in wing foiling must absolutely have a positive volume balance.

Your weight plus the board’s weight must be less than the board’s volume.

Don’t hesitate to take some volume and width if you’re not sure of your supports or not an athletic person.

To be comfortable, we recommend that you take a volume of around your weight + 30 = volume.

Examples for a 7kg board and different sizes:

1 / I weigh 50kg + 30 = 80L to be easy. Which means that with a 105L 5’6 I would be very comfortable, but without excess. The minimum to float is: 50kg + 7kg = 57L.
2 / I weigh 70kg + 30 = 100L to be easy. Which means that with a 120L 5’7 I would be very comfortable, but without excess. The minimum to float is: 70kg + 7kg = 77L.
3 / I weigh 85kg + 30 = 115L to be easy. Which means that with a 135L 5’8 I would be very comfortable but without excess. The minimum to float is: 85kg + 7kg = 92L.
4 / I weigh 100kg + 30 = 130L to be easy. Which means that with a 150L 5’9 I would be comfortable but without excess. The minimum to float is: 100kg + 7kg = 107L.

In wing foiling, you can take a board with a generous volume if you are a beginner.

How to choose the size of the board bag for my Wing Foil Board Lance Wood 2X?

Understanding the GONG range?

The concept of each board of the range can be summed up very simply:

HIPE First: the perfect inflatable board to learn wing foiling!
HIPE Free Fly: the best of strapless on an inflatable foil board.
HIPE Perf: the inflatable foil board with 95% of the performance of a rigid board, in an easy and scalable shape.
HIPE Cruzader Strapless: the strapless inflatable board with 95% of the performance of a rigid board with an ultra specialized shape, ideal for light wind winging and chilled out SUP foiling.
HIPE Cruzader strapped : the inflatable board with 95% of the performance of a rigid board with an ultra specialized shape, for the highest performance in light wind winging.
HIPE Pro: the inflatable board with 95% of the performance of a rigid one with a shape dedicated to advanced foilers who want fluidity and maximum responsiveness!
Mob 2taste: three sports in one board: SUP, SUP foiling and wing foiling.
Zuma: the easy rigid board for SUP foiling and wing foiling, and with good performance.
Lance: the compact Zuma, with great lateral stability, ideal for beginnings in wing foiling.
Cruzader: fantastic in SUP downwinders, pumping on the flat, but also in light wind conditions in wing foiling.
Flint: high performance in SUP foiling, great in wing foiling because it is simple and efficient in light wind.
Kube: pure freestyle board. Minimum length for maximum rotation.
Mint: compact without being too technical thanks to a perfect length and its round nose. Great performance in strapless too.
Lemon: maximum reactivity and liveliness, while maintaining stability.
Lethal: Absolute radicality among volume boards

Some will go for even more extreme with low volume boards like:

Lemon from 4’3 to 4’5: maximum responsiveness and liveliness.
Lethal from 4’3 to 4’5: absolute radicalism.
Catch Kite Foil: it works as well in kite foiling as with a wing when well powered.
Lethal Surf Foil: asymmetrical straps and minimum width to dare everything.

Which quiver?

The Lance really is the easy all-round wing foiling board. So it will surely be your unique board for wing foiling. Later as you progress you will certainly want something else, as a supplement or as a replacement. But that’s not the topic of the moment if you’re interested in a Lance.

You can of course complete it with a range of stand-up paddleboards without foil. And surfboards for those days when the waves are unsuitable for foil.

XXL for those under 95kg in winds under 6/8 knots or the bigger riders in winds less than 12 knots.
3XL for everyone in the very light wind and the bigger riders in winds under 10 knots.

At this level, everyone can adapt their equipment to their needs. Just remember that the wingspan is a point to take into consideration when riding high aspect ratios. The glide is fabulous, but be careful not to sacrifice maneuverability and rail-to-rail precision by using large sizes if you are looking for a very reactive drive. This is why even the pros do not necessarily ride in high aspect ratios!

The size of the front wing and in particular its surface and its volume condition the speed/lift ratio. The smaller the wing, the faster you will go but the more uncomfortable you will be at low speeds. The bigger the wing, the earlier you will fly but you’ll be penalized in handling and top speed.

Which Stab?

The stabs have a major role. They determine the stability of the foil and help with its lift, but to the detriment of the maximum speed of the foil and its maneuverability if they are too large. The role of the stabilizer is to stabilize the foil but also to compensate for the natural tendency of the front wing to dive. So you must have a good balance of surfaces between your stab and your front wing. A 38 cm stab with an XXL wing will give a catastrophic result at high speed: the foil will dive at high speed because the stab will no longer be able to lift enough to counteract the nosediving torque of the front wing.

Remember that the stab must be proportional to the front wing. This is why we have named them S M L XL like the front wings so that you can pair them easily. Creating an imbalance brings no benefit except the illusion of better glide.

Thus the X-Over stabs are slower than the Fluid or Veloce stabs, but are much more lifty, and therefore effective at low speed or with a large front wing (for beginners for example). The Curve stab is at the border of these two worlds and the Freestyle stab is 100% dedicated to radical moves.

In the X-Over range: super easy and effective stabs from low speeds to progress smoothly:

L 44 for those under 75kg and for everyone in winds above 15 knots.
XL 48 for those over 75kg and for everyone in winds below 20 knots.

In the Curve range: very simple stabs that love beautiful curves, with a stable and smooth glide:

S 36 for those under 65kg and for everyone in winds over 25 knots.
M 39 for those under 75kg and for everyone in winds over 20 knots.
L 43 for those under 85kg and for everyone in winds above 15 knots.
XL 46 for those over 95kg and for everyone in winds of less than 20 knots.

In the Fluid H range: stabs with a crazy glide for a radical drive but easy and relatively fast:

S 38 for those under 65kg and for everyone in winds over 25 knots.
M 42 for those under 75kg and for everyone in winds above 18 knots.
L 45 for those under 85kg and for everyone in winds above 12 knots.
XL 47 for those over 95kg and for everyone in winds below 20 knots.
XXL 49 for everyone in very light winds and bigger people in winds below 12 knots.

In the Veloce H range: the fast stabs dedicated to high speeds which are off your mind when riding:

S 36 for those under 65kg and for everyone in winds over 25 knots.
M 40 for those under 75kg and for everyone in winds above 20 knots.
L 44 for those under 85kg and for everyone in winds above 15 knots.
XL 47 for those over 95kg and for everyone in winds below 20 knots.

In the Freestyle range: stabs totally dedicated to tricks with a psycho pop and tight curves:

S 39 for those under 65kg and for everyone in winds over 25 knots.
M 41 for those under 75kg and for everyone in winds over 20 knots.
L 44 for those under 85kg and for everyone in winds above 15 knots.
XL 46 for those over 95kg and for everyone in winds of less than 20 knots.

Which foil mast?

In other words, everything will be played out between 85cm and 100cm. You can find all our advice on choosing between these two lengths by clicking here.

In summary, for waves and freestyle, but also for beginners and progressing, an 85 mast is ideal. Simple to put in the water, an easy rail to rail, it’s perfect. A 90 cm mast and above is great for Racing by offering more margin at high speed, namely in choppy conditions, but isn’t as maneuverable. All our masts : here.

Positioning of the foil?

For GONG foils, place the plate in the rear third when you start and in the center of the US rails when you progress. The Pros can position the foil even further towards the front for more lift and maneuverability.

The more you move it forward, the more the board will pitch nose-up. The more you move it backwards, the more the board nose-dives.

Be careful not to move it too far forward. We often tend not to let their back foot work, especially when we come from kite foiling. However, moving the foil back a little, forces more weight on the back foot and gives a more harmonious attitude and reduces effort.

How long is the paddle?

If you want to use the Flint in SUP foil you will need a paddle between your height -10cm and your height. The easiest and least traumatic for your back is to have a paddle at your height.

A long paddle relieves the physical exertion, especially in the lower back as you have to work yourself up at the take off. The effort is intense.

A short paddle gives more speed and less discomfort in the air. But it damages the back because we tend to row too much behind our feet, which forces on the lumbar vertebrae.

What length of paddle?

Which leash?

Take a 6′ of 7mm minimum diameter.

Check its condition before each session and change it every year. It is your lifejacket and the life insurance of the people in front of you.

Straps or strapless ?

Riding strapless is sexy because it makes you feel free. But quite honestly, it’s not the best for performance…

So, it’s up to you to see if sensation prevails over performance. On a Lance, we’re clearly going to miss 80% of its potential without the straps.

With straps, you’ll have much more control and much less risk of having the foil flipping under your feet. In the waves, it’s obvious, you gain a lot with straps. You can recover from crazy situations just by pulling up on your feet.

Put your straps in a central position (3rd hole) for the front, and the same goes for the back strap if you always ride with the back strap.

If you want to be able to get the back foot out for transitions and surfing, put the back strap on the first hole.

How to place and adjust your straps?

Good to know :

1/ The Lance is an easy board for foiling. You can cheat by taking a big volume but keep in mind that in SUP foiling it is still a small board that will be complicated in the chop. In wing foiling it’s totally fine because you have the wing to hold on to.

2/ The foil strongly stabilises a SUP when you are used to it. Do not compare the width of SUP boards without a foil with SUP boards with a foil. 5cm less are painless when having a foil under your board, except when there’s a strong backwash.

This extra width is necessary to speed up these very small boards when rowing and for early take offs.

3/ When water covers the tail it stabilizes the board. Sometimes too much volume is worse than anything. This is very true in compact boards that tend to tilt over.

As soon as we receive the container in La Baule, we ship your order within three working days. Then the carrier takes over: delivery time and tracking numbers are under their responsibility.

It is possible that the date displayed on the online for the pre-order of the item you have ordered and paid for may change for two reasons:

All quantities of the batch are sold (most common reason). In this case, orders placed for the first container will be delivered as scheduled.
The container is late and we have to shift the date by a few days. (Strikes, breakdowns, overbooking, can unfortunately happen). You will be notified by email.

We never change the delivery dates of a container without notifying customers.

Delays:

The dates that we announce are shipping deadlines, which GONG has in stock and available here physically.

We usually give a shipping time within 3 days, but in most cases, we ship within 24/48 hours. Normally morning orders leave in the afternoon for example.

Then the transport service takes over. The variables are then important between the customer being delivered to France (very fast) or Bulgaria (a good week) or to a forwarding agent or to Asia or the USA… You understand that each location has its own type of delay.

We work with serious and well-known carriers. They do their utmost to make you happy even if a snafu can happen. In any case, we are there to make things easier and to arrange our customers.

Shipping Fees:

Contrary to others, we do not hide shipping costs in the price of our products. At GONG everyone knows exactly what he pays. The transport is charged at its strictest value, and the person who comes to pick up his products does not pay hidden transport fees.

Shipping costs are calculated according to the weight and volume of each package, and your delivery address. To this is added a labour time of order preparation.

The invoicing of the shipping costs is identical in continental France and in the bordering European countries. A surcharge is automatically invoiced for deliveries to the most distant European countries and all European islands.

For a shipment in French overseas departments and territories or outside Europe, our logistics department will contact you before the payment stage to give you an estimate of the shipping costs. You will be able to accept this estimate and pay your order, or refuse it and cancel your order.

Any questions:

We answer you within 24 hours by email. But 95% of your questions are answered on the site. Try to use our contact form which will guide you to all these answers.

Don’t forget to read the Forum, where thousands of users exchange information and experiences.

In any case, don’t panic. If you don’t get an answer during the weekend, it’s normal: the team is resting 😉

We are passionate and professional in our job. Our only goal is to make you happy, as much as possible 😉

Eco-responsible packaging:

Preserving the environment is a top priority. That’s why we are doing everything possible to reduce our environmental footprint.

The first thing is to sell quality products that will last, be repairable and will please you for a long time.

The second thing is to sell for less. Most of the pollution coming from a Board is in its use (the km driven to use it) and in the countless environmental damages you have to do to pay for it. Each euro spent is a sum of damage related to your life quite simply: eating, working hard etc… By reducing the price of our products, we significantly reduce your ecological footprint on this item.

For our shipments we use:

Flexi-Hex: ecological packaging of very high resistance.
Paper Craft Scotch Tape.
Final packaging made of high-end cardboard.

All this for:

Reusable and recyclable packaging.
An almost total reduction of single-use plastic.
Maximum protection and impact resistance thanks to the innovative design of Flexi-Hex honeycomb (35mm thick).

Tracking of your parcels :

The tracking of deliveries is directly ensured by the carriers to whom we have entrusted your parcels. They will contact you by email or SMS to allow you to choose the delivery methods and to follow the route of your package.

If you ask us for this tracking, we will have to do as you do: we will go see on the carrier’s app because they are the ones who manage and are responsible for this job.

Delivery:

We collaborate with the best transport providers to deliver you everywhere in Europe and in the world in very short delays.

We have chosen them for their quality of service and their respect of deadlines. 80% of your orders reach their destination in less than 48 hours of processing in metropolitan and continental France.

For Europe, the delays vary from 3 to 6 days depending on the country of destination.

For the rest of the world, delays can be up to 15 days.

Please note that the transport time is added to the preparation/shipping time. Two companies work on your order (GONG and the carrier). Each one controls its activity and commits itself to optimize its delays so that you are delivered as soon as possible, in good condition and at a reasonable price.

Reception of your Board:

Upon delivery, simply open and inspect the condition of your Board in the presence of the carrier. A complete email explaining the procedure to follow will be sent to you when your order is shipped.

In spite of our requirements and all the care we take in packaging and protecting your Board, transportation hazards may occur. Even if it concerns less than 2% of everything we ship around the world, a Board can suffer a more or less important transportation shock.

But in any case, don’t worry, just refuse it, and a new Board will be shipped back to you.

Returns:

You can choose to return your products if:

You are not satisfied (14 days right of retraction).
You want to change an item.
You have refused your package.

For each situation, contact us by our contact form to help you.

David – 12 April 2024

Alors que je fais de la wing depuis deux ans j’ai eu l’occasion de tester une Lance 5’8 sur laquelle un ami faisait sa première session. Je lui remontais la board au vent pour lui épargner un retour à pied dans des conditions pas évidentes pour apprendre. Eh bien, c’était une expérience intéressante ! C’est fou comme elle est facile et je dois dire que c’est reposant d’avoir une board d’une stabilité absolue à l’arrêt 😅
Malgré un énorme clapot j’étais incroyablement relaxe. Un décollage quasi en pilote automatique avec une Rise en taille L sous la board, ca aussi c’est un luxe reposant 😉 Le plus surprenant c’était le rebond sur ce gros clapot.
Elle pardonne toutes les touchettes et redécolle illico. Comme elle est assez compacte pour sa taille, je me suis même amusé en freefly sur le bord retour.
J’aurais adoré avoir cette board pour commencer. Je recommande sans hésiter.

Superbe planche pour mon apprentissage, elle est bien stable avant le vol, je tiens debout super facilement.
Le décollage se fait tout en douceur, c’est contrôlable et très rassurant. Les sensations en vols sont juste géniales !
En plus, elle rentre facilement dans ma voiture !

Warning

When you practice foil you expose yourself to possible serious risks. A poor mastering of a foil can expose you to cuts and/or serious bodily harm, even death for yourself and possibly others around you.

Foiling should be practiced, in all circumstances, by taking precautions and taking into consideration all that is involved and associated with surf/SUP sports. Remember that a foil is long and has an edge that could cause slicing and is capable of reaching very high speeds. Getting hit by a foil, or hitting another, can have dramatic and highly unwanted consequences.

Always foil far from others, and in waters that are secure and without obstacle.

Always wear a helmet and protective vest that assures floatability. Always wear a full body neoprene wetsuit.

When handling and manipulating a foil be careful not to cut yourself along its edges.

GONG does not accept and declines any and all responsibility in case of accident that implicates a GONG foil. The practicing of this sport and the use of our equipment makes the user fully responsable for his/her actions while being a foil user.
