The board
The Lethal Surf Foiling board is perfect for high level foilers and pros. Directly inspired by the Lethal Surf model, our shape that’s dedicated to the most powerful waves, the Lethal Surf Foiling board has no limits. Many prototypes have led us to this particular shape with a rounded point nose that keeps the useful lift and eliminates inertia. The new volume distribution makes the board even more homogeneous and stable, especially when paddling, an effect reinforced by the optimized double front concave which provides more smoothness.
You can clearly see that reducing the width is the main focus of this pro board. Less width means more paddling speed, less sticking on touchdowns, and more control in extreme angles.
The tail has been reworked on the basis of the magic tail of the Lethal Wing board to streamline water outflows when paddling and reinforce the corck effect to pop more frankly on take off.
The much more ergonomic deck plan favors feedback. It’s flat up to the tip of the back foot for a pure, straightforward feel. We ride with a confident and powerful stance.
5 boards from 4’0 to 5’4 for all sizes. With the Lethal EPS Surf Foiling board, you can surf with a board at the forefront of modernity, light, solid, dynamic, of high quality, and all this without breaking the bank thanks to our online sales system (direct sales from the shaper to the foiler, without intermediary).

- The 4’0 is an UFO for pros with its tiny dimensions and its 26,5L offering a good lift nonetheless.
- The small 4’4 is 32L, which allows those with a high technical level to have maximum performance. The 4’4 is also ideal for small sizes.
- The 4’8 for 38L is ideal for good foilers who want to combine comfort and performance while keeping an easy paddling.
- The larger boards, the 5’1 for 48L and the 5’4 for 54L, are perfect for the bigger riders thanks to their generous volumes. This volume boosts paddling speed, essential on spots where you can’t get back out only by pumping.

The foil
The Foil
The Curve surf foil is the best mix of ease, speed and maneuverability.
This is the magic foil for foilers looking for maximum performance when carving. We all love the unique sensation of speed and pure glide specific to foil surfing, but imagine a surf foil capable of turning on the spot at very low speed, do a snap without stalling and carving healthily at high speed: the Curve foil is a monster for carving !!!
In surf foil, the Curve Foil is manoeuvrable and intended for foilers who want performance without sacrificing low speeds, especially in soft waves. This is typically the shape we choose when we love magical curves.
Our wings and stabs are made of 90% Prepreg 3K carbon, with more than 15 layers of carbon fiber in total. High tension points such as the joints and connections are reinforced with Kevlar to resist tearing and glass for tolerance. Moulded at high pressure and high temperature on a foam core, our stabs are practically indestructible. Both rigid and floating, they are the perfect balance between contained weight and infinite durability.
All of our wings and stabs have soft tips. Their ends are rounded and bulky to limit the danger, within the limits of efficient hydrodynamics. Likewise, the trailing edges are blunt so as not to be sharp. We invite you to be extremely careful despite everything because these parts remain dangerous by nature. Stay at a distance, and never sharpen them.
Our new 65cm Alu mast is perfect to perform with the Curve foil. Our new mast gains in performance and modernity with this new teardrop-shaped profile. Its chord is wider to optimize hydrodynamics and limit drag. This also eliminates the phenomenon of mast twisting and thus offers sharper sensations.
The profile is also thicker to bring more rigidity and to offer a direct and incisive piloting which will surprise you even in very committed curves. This gain in rigidity will allow you to be much more efficient in take-off/pumping, at high speed, as well as in surfing thanks to a more precise feeling of the foil.
A new assembly part between the mast and the fuselage is appearing this year: the Mast Fuselage Connector. It’s a conical piece to fit in the fuselage with a 6cm fitting in the mast to eliminate any potential play between these two parts. You have the rigidity of a monobloc mast with a removable system.
The new fuselage retains its assembly system with the wings to maintain compatibility with all our front wings and stabs. The top plate is still gaining in strength
The whole results in an optimized foil, extremely powerful and resistant, with a frank piloting which will know how to take the moves without the slightest distortion.
This foil is completely dismountable to adapt to all sports at a lower cost and give you the possibility to replace a damaged part. A complete spare parts catalogue is available, to allow you to make it compatible with multiple supports (surf/SUP/kite/wing), and to explore the full range of use of the foil in every sport and at every level.

Buying guide
For whom?
Board
From the confirmed to the Pro, the Matata is for those with foil experience looking for performance.
Whether you’re a lightweight or of a strong build, the Matata range offers all volumes.
Foil
You need to have an intermediate level to appreciate this Curve Foil as it’s not as forgiving at low speeds as beginner foils like the Rise is.
What is it for?
Board
Pretty much everything you love about surf foiling is awesome on the Matata EPS Surf Foiling board. Drop with a tiny amount of foam, pick up speed, carve in a handkerchief, densify your surf, return to the peak without forcing, connect the next bump with a big turn, do this 5 times, 10 times etc…
Obviously with its mini length it is not the queen of paddling, so with this board you should favor spots with breaking waves that you can catch on your way back. And you can especially bet on its pumping performance to add up the flight minutes.
Foil
It’s a foil intended for high performance in surf, whatever the conditions. Its ability to turn on the spot, fly in a huge range of speeds, recover from stalls healthily, make it the major support for a modern and radical drive.
What size?
- The 3’11 x 27L is the ultimate size: light or top level only.
- The 4’2 x 32L is high performance but with volume
- The 4’5 x 39L is also high performance but with a lot of comfort
- The 4’8 x 47L is comfortable, perfect for the bigger foilers
- The 4’11 x 55L is very comfortable, what else? ?
In all cases, they are very compact shapes offering a lot of dynamism.
FOIL
On the flat, we tend to think that the bigger the better. With moderation though, but yes, it’s often the rule.
Here is a view of the ideal weight of the rider for each wing and each use:
The M has a 69cm wingspan, 1100 cm², 2.2 cm thick for a volume of 1.1L.
- In Surf Foil: less than 65kg in normal waves and less than 85kg in bigger waves.
- In Wing: less than 65kg or very good level and strong wind.
- In Kite Foil: less than 85kg.
The M-T has a 73cm wingspan, 1150cm², 2.0cm thick for a volume of 1.14L.
- In Surf Foil: less than 70kg in normal waves and less than 95kg in bigger waves.
- In Wing: less than 70kg or very good level and steady wind.
- In Kite Foil: less than 95kg.
The L has a 77cm wingspan, 1350cm², 2.4cm thick for a volume of 1.6L.
- In Surf Foil: less than 75kg in normal waves and more than 85kg in bigger waves.
- In Wing: less than 75kg or good level and steady wind.

The XL has a 92cm wingspan, 1900 cm², 2.7 cm thick for a volume of 2.55L.
- In Surf Foil: from 80 to 95kg in normal waves.
- In Wing: 75kg and more, or light beginners.
- In Kite Foil: forget.
The XL-T has a 102cm wingspan, 2100 cm², 2.7 cm thick for a volume of 2.80L.
- In Surf Foil: more than 90kg in normal waves.
- In Wing: 85kg and more for light and irregular wind.
- In Kite Foil: forget.
You’ll use a bigger foil in lower ranges, softer conditions. And conversely a smaller foil in those recommended for stronger conditions. The important thing to remember is that the choice of your front 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 MT, the L: forget. It’s of no interest.
- The LT: less than 55kg.
- The XLS: less than 65kg.
- The XL: less than 75kg.
- The XLT: less than 95kg.
- The XXL: above 95kg.
Understanding the GONG range?
We can very simply summarize the concepts of each board in our range:
HIPE: the inflatable with 95% of the stiffness. Ideal for beginners and much more!
Lance: the easy surf foiling board that’s comfortable to paddle.
Matata: maximum compactness for an unmatched reactivity.
Lethal: speed, control and total radicality for the pros.
Quiver partners?
If you’re into surf foiling you’ll be into classic surfing when the waves are good and hollow. You will have a wide range of choice in our range to complete your quiver.
Surf foiling tends to eat up the usual SUP program because it enjoys the same waves. It’s not easy to marry the two but having diversity in a quiver is always a plus. Surf foiling is typically perfect in the conditions of an NFA for example.
We will often complement a surf foiling board with a wing because it is the ideal combination when the wind is rising. The wing is really the ski lift for a surf foiler. It’s a completely natural extension of it.
Positioning of the foil?
For the GONG foils, place the plate in the middle of the US rails.
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 kitefoil 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.
Which leash?
A short leash, a 5′ of 6 mm is sufficient in small waves. A 6′of 7mm will be much safer as soon as it gets bigger. It’s your lifejacket, you have to use it to protect yourself and others. It is imperative to renew it every year because it wears out.

Warning
When you practice Foil you expose yoursef to possible serious Risks. A poor mastering of a Foil can expose you to Cuts and/or Serious Bodily Harm, even Death for youself and possibley others around you.
Foiling should be practiced, in all circumstances, by taking precautions and taking into cosideration 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 incrue 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 Neoprane 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 responsability in case of accident that implicates a GONG Foil. The practicing of this sport and the use of our equipment makes the user fully resposable for his/her actions while being a Foil User.
