The board for pumping longer and farther: light, rigid, sturdy.

Presentation

The perfect board for dock starts: dimensions, shape, rocker, rigidity, strength and lightness make the Kluber the ideal board for pumping.

With a perfectly flat tail rocker and a minimalist nose rocker, the Kluber is undoubtedly the most comfortable and efficient board for pumping whatever your level, from beginner to expert. Indeed, this low rocker allows you to glide in the event of a touchdown without losing speed, a mandatory condition for maintaining flight.

The outline eliminates the unnecessary to keep only the essentials for flight. And, on top of that, it looks beautiful.

The significant reduction in thickness brings the rider closer to the foil for precise pumping but remains sufficient to accommodate US SCS boxes, and not compromise its rigidity or its ability to float.

The HDCC construction (High-Density Core & Carbon) is a major advancement in pumping boards. With two carbon H-shaped stringers, a full carbon prepreg lamination, double-entry full carbon SCS boxes, all pressed in a steel mold and baked at 155°C; this ultra-rigid construction maximizes performance and enhances your experience.

The high-density foam is hydrophobic. Zero stress in case of impact, especially since the rails are reinforced. Perfect for dock starting. The super comfortable deck pad increases performance levels with a very precise and uniform sensation feedback. Visually, two colors help to aim accurately and are not prone to dirt. Lightweight, rigid, and sturdy, it is ideal for pump foilers looking to push the limits of pumping. And its price is just incredible considering its construction.

Your benefits are clear:

1. An efficient shape created by one of the leaders in the world of foiling.
2. State-of-the-art R&D and ahead of its time.
3. A construction proven on thousands of boards, multiple world champion!
4. The “Full Options” finish at a crazy price.
5. A light, solid board, with one of the best technologies on the market!!!
6. An incredible price that can only be explained by our direct relationship with you.

Outline

A board with minimalist dimensions for maximum responsiveness underfoot and zero inertia in pumping.

Thickness

With a maximum thickness of 3 cm, your connection with your foil is perfect while retaining the simplicity of US SCS boxes. Your pumping is direct with unprecedented rigidity at this weight. You can be sure that your efforts are utilized 100%.

Rocker

With a very minimal rocker, pumping is more efficient and provides a perfect pitch to facilitate and optimize each push through the front foot on the deck. It also allows the use of the entire length of the Kluber depending on your build and stance.

Beveled rails

The Kluber has beveled rails to provide a comfortable grip in hand during takeoffs in dock start and beach start. These rails are also useful in flight as they prevent the board from sticking during touches.

HDCC construction

The HDCC (High-Density Core & Carbon) construction offers only advantages, apart from the price of implementing the technology.

A unique technology that comes from our expertise in building high-end front wings and foil masts. The board is full carbon prepreg, with a core of very high-density foam, two H stringers in carbon prepreg, and two full carbon prepreg US SCS boxes. The entire structure is molded and baked under a pressure of 120 tons and a temperature of 155°C.

The result is an incredibly lightweight board with extreme resistance and rigidity. This technology does not require any sanding of the shape since it is molded to the perfect shape in a single step. No sanding means no production waste. No sanding of hot coats either as they are directly integrated into the molding. It is extremely costly to implement, but the result is 99% clean.

The weight of the Kluber 80, finished board with pad, is 1.7 kg! Combined with the extreme rigidity and solidity of the Kluber, this technology marks a step up in the history of dock/beach start boards.

HDCC Technology

These boards have the high-performance HDCC (High Density Core & Carbon) technology. The manufacturing process is akin to that of a foil wing. The board is manufactured from aerospace-grade prepreg carbon fiber and a high-density foam core with mechanical properties that ensure structural cohesion and hydrophobicity in case of damage.

In a nutshell, it’s strong, stiff, and very lightweight

Industry-standard prepreg carbon fibers are positioned on the high-density foam core. Carbon H-stringers and full prepreg boxes are also placed before compression in a steel mold heated to 155°C to polymerize the resin. Mold pressure combined with high temperature ensures perfect layer cohesion to guarantee exemplary performance and durability.

Subsequently, the board is extracted from the mold. Board logos are applied. A thin layer of matte varnish is then applied to protect the board. The pad is glued, and the board is ready to ride!

This technology involves no sanding, hence no production waste. There's no sanding of the shape as it's molded, no sanding of the laminations which are pressed and fused, and no sanding of the hot coats which are integrated directly into the molding process. It's extremely costly to implement but the result is impeccably clean.

All our prototyping phases are tested on our own test benches. HDCC boards easily pass resistance tests with loads exceeding several hundred kilograms on the front foot.

The lower price compared to this exceptional technology is due to the efficiency of construction. Less human labor (about a quarter) equals lower expenses. Simply, with this board, you're primarily investing in well-assembled premium materials.

At GONG, our boards are top-of-the-line. Our competitive pricing is only possible due to direct sales, which eliminate intermediary markups. If, unfortunately, you break them, they are fully repairable with components we keep in stock for your favourite shape.

Buying guide

For whom?

The Kluber is intended for foilers of any size and level wishing to start or perform in dock and beach start.

For what?

With perfect dimensions, unrivaled rigidity and construction on the market, a super light weight and a super low price, there is no doubt that the Kluber is the ideal dock & beach start board #looknofurther.

Which size?

When pumping, the size of the board does not depend on your weight but rather on your level. The 95 cm will be easier for a beginner rider. An intermediate to expert rider will be more efficient with the 80 cm Kluber.
Indeed, more length makes it possible to compensate for hesitations in positioning the feet ? And less length offers a reduction in weight and therefore performance. It’s all a question of compromise and choice as always.

What is the ideal foil?

All giant wings such as the Siru s, Curve H andFluid H which are designed to pump over long distances. To be mounted on an HM72 or HM79 mast.

The more classic high aspect wings in usual sizes will be ideal for high pace pumping. To be mounted with anHM70 orHM77 mast.

Equipments

2 US GONG Box Double Entry for standard foil plates equipped with 4 screw + nuts (9cm center distance). Compatible with our SCS system. This new system allows ultra-fast assembly of GONG foils. (INSERTS NOT SUPPLIED WITH THE BOARD).
5 mm Velvet Traction deck pad : deck covering designed for great comfort and absolute grip.

The Kluber HDCC is equipped with our high-end 5mm thick Traction Velvet Pad. The Hard Brush surface treatment provides a firm grip. Comfort is unrivaled because the entire surface of the foot is in contact with the pad. Unlike a pad with large reliefs, the grip is made by an infinity of micro reliefs, hence this velvet contact. This new one-piece pad covers the entire useful surface of the top. It frees you from waxing your board. And it avoids small angles that could end up coming unstuck.

The Kluber is equipped with our double entry US box system to accommodate the SCS launched on all our recent foil boards. It’s so easy to install your foil with this system that you will save time on the water.

With the SCS nuts connected by the composite rods, your nuts are perfectly aligned without having to touch them. You place them on the 4 entries, you fit them in, you move the foil back to the chosen position and with two turns of the keys per screw the foil is mounted. The GONG double entry box makes it easier to assemble and adjust the foil! Performance without the hassle. When dismantling, just leave the nuts and the screws on the top plate, – loosen the screws, remove the foil and off you go! It is the plug and play solution which facilitates adjustments (SCS nuts not supplied with the board).
