The Pro fuselage is shorter than the previous V2 fuselage to radically reduce the weight of the foil. The shortened part at the rear of the fuselage is substituted by a longer stab in carbon fiber, so much lighter than metal.
This technical choice allows us to shape the back end of the fuselage much thinner to improve glide.
The drag of the fuselage is thus divided by 3. The gain in speed is phenomenal. The foil is freer and more manageable at the same time.
This version has a 1° angle of incidence on the rear socket which increases the lift of the stab.
On the water, this translates into several elements:
- It allows you to take off earlier and be more relaxed in the low end. You have additional margin and can slow down for longer before stalling. This is ideal for pumping, and you can also consider switching to a smaller stab size to gain maneuverability without losing lift.
- When sailing, you will have different sensations with more pressure on the front foot. This is very useful for having better feedback underfoot when sailing with low lift stabs like the Veloce H for example.
- In freestyle, you are able to raise the foil more quickly to the surface of the water for better pop and gain more amplitude in the tricks. Prepare for stratospheric jumps!
The self-tightening conical fitting at the back end of the fuselage allows for an ultra-rigid assembly of the stab with just two screws. The V-shape of this fitting leaves more material on the lower side of the carbon fiber stab; which is the one undergoing the most efforts while flying. This excess material is strategic at this point to further increase longevity.
The front fitting is identical to our previous V1 and V2 to allow full compatibility with all your front wings of different generations.
Our philosophy is to fight against obsolescence, and therefore to maximize compatibility between all our spare parts from different collections.
So you have the choice:
So you have the choice:
- to mount it with the new Pro stabs with the elongated tail which are designed to connect directly to this new fuselage, you benefit from a weight reduction of 40% compared to the V2 alu fuselage assembly.
- or to mount it with the classic stabs of our range thanks to OUR CARBON ADAPTER placed at the rear of this fuselage, which will save you 20% in weight compared to the V2 alu fuselage, to connect the classic stabs from our range.
The position of the Fuselage Mast Connector is set back one centimeter in the fuselage to leave more material in front of the mast box and increase durability there too. For the same mast adjustment on the board, the position of the foil therefore advances by 1 cm. To keep in mind !
The aluminium technology offers the best strength/lightness ratio, at a nice price.
The fuselage is milled with a 3 axial CNC from a 6061 aluminium block of the highest quality for clockwork precision. The aluminium is then heat treated in T6 to provide outstanding durability.
In combination with the new STAB PRO H, which will save you more than 40% weight compared to the V2 alu fuselage and 3 times less drag.
This fuselage allows your foil to be completely removable for transport, to adapt to all sports at a lower cost, and to give you the possibility of replacing a damaged part.
A complete catalog of spare parts is available to practice all our sports (Surf/SUP/Kite/Wing). You can also adapt your foil to the weather conditions and your level for maximum comfort and performance.
The fuselage is fully recyclable at the end of their life.
The aluminium pro fuselage is only compatible with V2 aluminium and carbon masts, as well as the HM masts.
Screws not included :
- FRONT WING SCREWS: 1X(M6X20MM) + 1X(M6X16MM) + 1X(M6X12MM)
- STAB PRO SCREW: 2X (M6X16MM)

- CARBON MAST SCREW: 3X (M6X30MM)
INNOVATION IS AT THE CORE OF OUR PRODUCTS
This Pro fuselage is cut from high quality materials. The aluminium version is machined with a 3 axial CNC for maximum precision. The machine time is considerable. But starting from a block of metal makes it possible to use the best material to obtain a very resistant foil.

Our R&D as well as our Quality Control guarantee you products of the highest quality. Firstly because our engineers based in South Brittany, France, are the first users. Their passion for our sports coupled with their qualifications have enabled us to create a unique research center in the world.
Our position as world leader in foiling is no coincidence. Our 3D simulations, our countless technical and technological prototyping, our state-of-the-art tools, our 100% GONG factory, our tests with the Pro Team which is among the most efficient, the thousands of feedback from our customers and our Ambassadors, and a ultra involved shaper designer: these are the key elements among many others that allow us to manufacture exceptional foils.
Several years ago, we were at the origin of the creation of the first foil factory in Asia, which today produces the “prestige” brands. 18 months of intense work and dozens of tools developed. Three years ago, we launched a new 100% GONG factory which allows us to produce more parts and keep our developments and technologies secret, to offer you the best of foils.
We want to offer low prices without ever cutting corners on quality, and refined products without ever diminishing performance in each program: we know what we are doing from A to Z. We do not sell foils designed by a freelancer, we do not do not sell marketing concepts. We do thorough, serious and innovative work to create efficient and solid foils at an unbeatable price.

Warning
The practice of the sport Foil may expose you to serious injury. A poor mastering of Foil may lead to cut, serious injury and/or including death for you and/or others.
Foil should be practiced by taking into consideration all kite user precautions that are associated with the sport Foil. Remember that a Foil is long, cutting, and reaches high speeds. Getting hit by a Foil, or hitting someone/thing can have dramatic consequences.
Always Foil far from others, in a secure and safe waterscape without obstacles.
Foil is most often practiced in light winds which may cease to blow leading you to return to shore by swimming. As a consequence do not overestimate your your strength/capacity : never go further out than your skill and swimming capacities and wind conditions allow.
Always wear a helmet and life vest for floatation. Always wear a full body wetsuit.
When handling the Foil, be careful not to cut yourself along the edges.
GONG is NOT responsible in case of any and all accidents implicating a Foil GONG. The practice of Foil is undertaken under the complete responsability of the Foil User/Practioner.
