Description

Preamble

Our Direct Sales Distribution Model has proven its efficiency on every level. Now we want to extend that system to Brands that are ‘Friends’ of GONG so we may offer more choices than ever. Jean Valère Bordenave entrusts GONG with his JVB Surfboard production and sales. He is a renowned Shaper from Corsica, a high level Surfer, and the first to have charged G-Land on a SUP (GONG Electric 9’11 in fact), so this is a collaboration and a long standing relationship between our two Brands.

Function

The super fast and compact board with a modern shape dedicated to small waves.

Introduction

The BO is a shortboard model made for speed. Its nose and tail’s width make the BO a small board on which its easier to paddle. It is stable and large even though its a shortboard. The BO offers an outstanding control and stability in terms of paddling which allows you to be alert and quick at the Peak and ready for the take off.

Its rocker is shaped in a way that gives speed to the paddle and to enter the wave faster and earlier.

Thanks to the concaves and hull combo, the BO keeps speeding in the wave, tearing the hollow parts and flying ontop of the soft sections.

The BO model is “the upper level”. It gives you the feeling of speeding down the line, some flow and control in the small waves surf. It’s an awesome board to learn and progress with for tricks and airs.

Shape

  • Outline: composed of short and long curves to obtain a non-standard outline combining control and ability to turn short.
  • Rocker: in 3 parts, the middle section streched out and the steepening of the nose and tail’s curves. This rocker is to combine speed and control according to the surfer’s weight shift on its front or back foot.
  • Bottom: Simple concave + double concave + Vee to limit theoutflow of water under the board and gain speed by using the “VENTURI EFFECT” principle.
  • Rails: soft under the front foot to maximise progress and control. Rails are generous and edgy under the back foot to emphasize speed and responsiveness of the board.
  • Tail: Diamond rounded that gives you control, rotation is made easier and there is some softness while moving from one rail to another.
  • Fins: Thruster ​

Shipping

Availability:

The dates of availability of all our products are written on each product page, in the size and colour of the product concerned.

These dates are valid at the moment you consult the site and/or place an order. It is possible that this product may be ordered a few seconds after your consultation. It then becomes unavailable. If you have placed an order, this change does not concern you: the product you order is still available on the date indicated at the time of your order.

We sell several thousand products per week. The stocks are therefore very evolutionary. But our management always shows you the real availability live.

If it’s available online: it’s available ?

 

Pre-order:

Some articles are proposed in pre-order during their routing to our premises. You can buy this article which will arrive at our place in a few weeks. This method avoids the fair to grab upon receipt of the lot and the disappointed ones who would not order within the hour.

Upon receipt, we will ship it to you as a regular order.

The times indicated on the pre-orders are 95% reliable. First of all, because we only pre-sell finished products that are arriving to us after Customs, and therefore shipped right after. And also, because we add decent margins with concern to the dates announced by the shipping companies or railways.

However, a Worker Strike, a breakdown, an overbooking, can unfortunately happen. In the case of a delay, you will be notified by email (check your spam). It is generally less than a week and totally independent of our good will.

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:

  1. All quantities of the batch are sold (most common reason). In this case, orders placed for the first container will be delivered as scheduled.
  2. 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.

  1. Tytouan le Buhe

    Encore un super weekend riche en ride !!
    Pour finir en beauté du surf en JVB the Bo 5.9 … Encore une fois un régale cette planche … On pourrait croire avec son shape généreux qu’elle ne tiendrai pas dans une houle conséquente … Et bien si !! Take off un poil plus précoce qu’en shortboard histoire d’avoir le temps de bien se caller avant de prendre un max de Speed, et après ça fuse, ça dérape, ça tourne … Le Twin plus trailer est vraiment adapté à ce modèle ! ?

  2. Sylvain Barré

    Pareil. Trop bien cette planche. Suis fan !!!

  3. Alicia Labat

    Yeaaah trop bien cette board ! J’ai la meme en 5’3 / 29L ! Elle est excellente ! Super passe par tout !
    Malheureusement je vais sûrement devoir m’en séparer…

    JVB – The Bo model !
    Planche fabriquée en partenariat entre le shaper JVB et Gong.
    J’ai acheté cette planche il y a peu de temps, et j’ai pu mettre quelques sessions avec, modèle 5.9 – 38L + FCS power Twin + trailer
    J’ai surfé du beachbreak plutôt mou, du beachbreak pas loin de tuber avec takeoff dans le creux (bon sans moi dedans, pas le niveau encore ?) et du spot de cailloux. Avec une taille allant de taille de hanche à taille d’Homme environ.
    C’est une super planche passe partout ! Elle a ce qu’il faut de volume sur l’avant pour avoir une rame confortable et efficace, mais sans perdre l’accroche du rail quand ça creuse un peu ! Grâce au montage Twin + trailer, ça fuse, et on garde une accroche confortable dans les manoeuvres (merci aux conseils du vendeur au shop, sinon je serais parti sur un thruster classique, et ça aurait probablement été un poil moins fun !). Et franchement ce modèle avec cette taille pour mon poids, 87Kg, ca tourne top pour mettre du roller et du cutback à gogo ! ?
    Conclusion : je voulais une planche passe partout pour pas me prendre la tête, et bien c’est réussi ! Facilité, efficacité ! La planche idéal pour mon utilisation !

  5. jhon jhon

    fabuleuse planche de surf. Pas besoin d’avoir un gros niveau pour la surfer. Elle part seule au take off et se manie très facilement.
    J’ai réussi à faire mon premier vrai roller avec!
    je la conseil vivement

How to properly glue your pads?

The question of the pad often comes down to an aesthetic choice for the look of your board. But what seems like luxury to non-pros is actually a huge help.
If surfing is “the art of placement” then you need to put your feet properly on the board. And what better than a touch marker to know, “ok, I’m at the sweet spot for this turn.”?

Sticking good pads is therefore essential. They will signal to your feet whether they are in the perfect position or not.
You still have to stick them properly, and some get very creative…
