The cruising Prone Paddleboard, sleek and efficient, designed for sporty sessions.

Overview

The I-Prone boards are high-end, purpose-built shapes created by pioneering shaper Patrice Guénolé and a team of passionate engineers.

Designed to get you on the water as often as possible, improve your fitness and prepare for your best sessions, these paddleboards are making their return to the inflatable range with a complete lineup.

The I-Prone Trainer 12’ is the cruising model in the range. Sleeker, faster-gliding and more elongated than the 10’6, it is designed for kneeling or prone paddling during sporty sessions, delivering true glide and efficiency. It is the perfect bridge between the compact surf trainer and the endurance-focused 14’.

This lightweight and efficient board is designed for riders who want to extend their sessions, improve their paddling technique and enjoy a fast, smooth glide without stepping straight into a larger format. It naturally encourages you to maintain pace, accelerate, push for speed runs and compare times on your regular route. Its stretched outline, refined nose and pin tail enhance tracking, average speed and glide sensation on flat water, calm seas, light chop or small rolling swells.

Its premium woven fusion dropstitch construction, reinforced with two stringers, delivers the rigidity, lightness and durability required for committed riding and intensive use. The Velvet Traction Pad Hardbrush provides both reliable technical support and the comfort expected when paddling prone or kneeling: the contact feels smooth, and the board remains comfortable even during long and intense sessions. Multiple handles make carrying and handling easier both on land and on the water. The I-SUP Race standard, applied to a board dedicated to paddling.

With its 21” width and refined tips, the 12’ delivers a true prone paddling glide and requires precise positioning. It is a playful and technical board for riders looking for sporty cruising with the signature glide sensation these boards are known for.

The I-Prone Trainer 12’ is also an easy board to live with. Head out on the water with friends, clear your mind, paddle through wind, glassy conditions, chop or small swells, without the hassle of a fragile and bulky hard board.

Like all inflatable boards, everything fits into one bag where the board and your entire gear setup naturally find their place.

With its stunning design and carefully selected materials, the I-Prone Trainer 12’ is the dedicated board for the prone cruising program you’ve been looking for. A truly beautiful paddleboard offered at a record-breaking price for the high-end category.

US Box

The I-Prones are equipped with a central US Box, the essential standard for high-end fins. Since the fin determines 50% of a board’s performance, GONG chose this precise and versatile system for its inflatable SUPs. The result: a huge selection of technical fins available to optimize the board according to your level, your riding program, and the conditions.

Velvet traction pad

The 5 mm GONG Velvet Traction Pad combines comfort, precision, and style. Its velvet texture offers optimal grip, an extra soft feel, and a direct connection to the board.

The result: precise paddling, comfortable support whether kneeling or lying down, and a truly soft contact feel when sessions are long.

Handles

They are equipped with two ergonomic front handles, practical for handling the board both in and out of the water. Combined with the stainless steel D-rings, they also allow you to secure small lightweight gear at the front: a waterproof bag, water bottle, or useful accessories for longer sessions.

A clean and efficient setup, perfectly suited for cruising, endurance, and long-distance programs.

Double-Action Pump

The included high-speed double-action pump is extremely efficient, helping you be the first on the water without exhausting yourself:

Double action: air is pumped both when pushing and pulling the handle during the first stage of inflation.
Single action: during the final strokes, when inflation becomes more demanding as the board pressure increases, switch to single action mode so the pump inflates only when pushing the handle down. It’s far more comfortable and efficient!

Inflatable I-Prone Technology - Woven Fusion

Thanks to its high-end Woven Dropstitch Fusion inflatable technology, GONG I-Prone boards are sleek, lightweight, highly rigid, and incredibly durable.

The I-Prones feature a double thermo-welded layer on the deck and the hull. It is this membrane that gains in lightness while maintaining the rigidity of a double layer.

The dropstitch used inside our I-Prone is a Woven Dropstitch : it is the best assembly technique of the inflatable world, for best in class performance, rigidity and lightness.

Woven Dropstitch technology, the best compromise between weight/stiffness/strength. Combining our historical Double Layer Welded technology with the new Woven Dropstitch, this technology is by far the most reliable, lightest and stiffest.
Weight savings of around 20% compared to the classic Double Layer (no glue between the 2 welded PVC layers).
Rigidity gain of 30% compared to standard technology.
Strength gain: twice as thick as standard technology.
Double layer of PVC on the rails.
Premium Woven Dropstitch: the slightest irregularity is refused and the batch is resold to low cost factories.
High density Dropstitch Woven: with more threads per square meter than a basic Woven, it resists much higher pressures, lasts much longer, and does not present a risk of explosion.
Working pressure: 15 PSI. Our Stand Up Paddle Boards are perfectly rigid at 15 PSI. There is no need to overinflate them, but you can mount them at 20 PSI without any problem.
Two-year Warranty on all our Inflatable Boards.
We keep in stock all the elements that make up your Board because we are manufacturers. So, you can easily repair them and make them last for more than ten years. It’s as simple as repairing a bicycle wheel.

Buying guide

Who is it for?

The I-Prone Trainer 12’ is designed for riders looking for a sleek, fast-gliding and dynamic paddleboard to extend their sessions without stepping into a large-format board.

It is the ideal board for those seeking a more performance-oriented paddle experience than the 10’6, with a true glide sensation while remaining easy to handle day to day. With its 21’’ width and refined tips, this is a high-performance board that also requires proper positioning: the sporty cruising board for riders who already have solid paddling technique.

What is it for?

For kneeling or prone paddling during sporty sessions, enjoying refined glide, improving paddling technique and experiencing the sensations of prone cruising.

At 12’, this paddleboard is perfect for dynamic outings, regular training, flat water, calm seas, light chop and small rolling swells. It bridges the gap between the compact 10’6 surf trainer and the smoother endurance-oriented 14’.

While anything is possible, here are the main intended uses:

The 12’ x 21’’:

Paddling: short to medium training sessions, dynamic cruising, refined paddling feel.
Behavior: the most agile, reactive and performance-oriented of the pin tails. Fast-gliding while requiring accurate positioning.
Rider size: ideal up to 80/90 kg, especially suited for small to medium riders looking for a lively and technical board.
Choose it if you want a compact, sleek and playful paddleboard for sporty sessions and cruising glide.

The 14’ x 21’’:

Paddling: endurance, regular training, long outings, steady cadence.
Behavior: the ultra-versatile pin tail in the range. It delivers glide, efficiency and excellent moving stability for covering longer distances.
Rider size: suitable for all body types, with particular appeal for small and medium riders wanting access to long-distance paddling with a comfortable and accessible board.
Choose it if you want the best balance between glide, stability and accessibility for prone endurance paddling.

Paddling: long outings and ultra-distance, endless glide, committed training.
Behavior: the most efficient and glide-oriented model. It carries speed effortlessly and loves extended lines and long trajectories.
Rider size: from 60/70 kg depending on skill level, especially relevant for bigger riders seeking volume, lift and long-distance glide.

Understanding the GONG range?

What’s the difference between our SUP First, I-SUP and I-Prone inflatable ranges?

What quiver?

The I-Prone boards are purpose-built boards that fit perfectly into a complete quiver. This is your prone cruising board: sleek, fast-gliding and dynamic for improving paddling, rhythm, balance and water-reading skills.

For accessories, think about a suitable leash, a premium US fin, a water bottle or a small waterproof bag depending on your outings. As for boards, it all depends on your surfing style: shortboard for performance surfing, longboard for classic glide, SUP surf for mixing paddling and waves, or I-Surf for lightweight travel.

Which leash?

Your leash is your life jacket, always remember that. Check its condition before every session and replace it every year.

In all cases, we strongly recommend wearing one. To paddle freely without restriction, choose a coiled SUP leash suited to your board length: it stays out of the way while paddling without compromising your safety.

Good to know:

Never leave your board in direct sunlight, especially an inflatable board which heats up very quickly. The materials can soften with heat and begin to delaminate. Never store it behind a car window or near a heat source.

Never let your board get heavily worked by waves, especially near shore. You must protect it from major impacts. A wave that grabs and rolls your board can cause serious damage.

Do not hold onto the leash indefinitely under heavy tension as it may eventually break. Avoid large waves and do not resist excessive force. If it breaks, it is easy to replace but always frustrating.

Stay away from oysters: they are one of the rare shells capable of cutting your board and causing it to deflate within seconds. Extreme caution advised.

Do not let your inflatable board rub continuously against anything. For example, on a boat, your board may move with every wave and rub in the same spot for hours. The material can wear away as if sanded down, eventually creating a hole that will require a patch repair.

Never place the board between yourself and the wave: risk of injury, including a broken nose ;-)

Do not paddle offshore with wind blowing from land to sea, and avoid windy sessions in general as they are rarely enjoyable and always dangerous. Prone paddling is an activity with real risks, even in seemingly calm conditions. Always anticipate these risks and protect yourself accordingly.
