Presentation
The Droid SP Aramid CZ 2025 is a compact, extremely powerful, and rigid wing, 100% boom: the ideal combination for freeride, slalom, and lightwind, while also providing impressive big air performance with record-breaking jumps.
SP for SuperPower, the Droid SP 2025 represents a significant milestone in the evolution of the range, becoming the most powerful version ever created. With major innovations and a spinnaker fabric common to our racing wings, it sets new performance standards while remaining accessible to a broad range of users.
The redesigned shape, with a deeper concave and optimized dimensions and ratio, maximizes its power. This characteristic allows it to perform exceptionally in complex wind conditions and light wind, where it is able to turn every gust into impressive acceleration.
By reducing the diameter of the strut and the inflatable volume by 5%, drag is minimized, while the new sections added to the leading edge and tips enhance both stability and glide. This wing never stops: it pushes you higher, faster, with flawless control and a continuous glide feeling. Its raw power, tempered by remarkable smoothness, makes it a powerhouse in freeride and slalom.
The leading edge and strut made from UPE Aramid deliver unparalleled rigidity and lightness, complemented by a canopy in Aramid CZ, the same fabric found in our race wings like the Pulse. This ultra-rigid and durable material boosts responsiveness and power, while providing impressive lift. The synergy of these technologies ensures outstanding lightwind performance and rock-solid durability, perfect for riders aiming to go beyond their limits.
Optimized tensions in the canopy, combined with a more pronounced concave, allow for maximum exploitation of the wing's power, especially in low-wind conditions.
In big air, it’s a catapult ready to launch incredible tricks and reach record-breaking heights.
In freeride, it turns gusts into explosive accelerations, offering smooth glide and constant speed.
Though its design may not be ideal for freestyle surfing, it excels in its primary focus and, like all Droid wings, can still handle surf sessions with ease.
The Boom V2, perfectly integrated, plays a key role in this experience. Rigid and ergonomic, it features EVA padding on the front handle for optimal comfort and an intuitive grip. The end protections prevent any damage to the board while maintaining a refined aesthetic.
This 2025 model retains the DNA of the Droid but stands out with its unique character. The Droid SP Aramid CZ is the most powerful wing in the range, combining rigidity, lift, and precision for unparalleled performance. The advanced materials, combined with cutting-edge construction, provide exceptional durability and aesthetics.
Whether you're a freerider or a slalom racer, the Droid SP Aramid CZ 2025 is the ultimate choice for unforgettable sessions. With its exceptional lightwind performance and ability to perform in tricky wind conditions, it surpasses its competitors and takes your riding to new heights from the very first ride.
The best of the wing, created for you through the collaboration of our team riders, designers, and engineers, with one goal in mind: to deliver unmatched power and performance.

Buying guide
For whom?
Racers, freestylers, freeriders, and thrill-seekers, this wing is for you!
The Droid SP is made for riders who want a compact, powerful, and highly reactive wing.
Accessible to all motivated riders, but designed for advanced riders seeking performance, it adapts to your level while pushing you to improve.
A true big air champion, yet also the perfect wing to help a heavier rider take off with ease. It’s a race favorite, but also the safest Aramid wing for everyday riders, thanks to its 4 windows.
With power and performance at its core, it’s designed for those looking to maximize their potential. The Droid accelerates quickly and demands a solid physical commitment, ideal for riders determined to push their boundaries. Its intensity is an advantage in freestyle and jumps, but it can be softened in freeride by using a harness, especially on longer tacks.
For what?
The Droid is an ultra-versatile wing that excels in demanding disciplines while remaining accessible. Here are its key strengths:
- Early take off: with its compact design and focused power, it lets you take off early, even when underpowered. Ideal for making the most of your sessions without staying stuck on the water, no matter the conditions.
- Slalom and fast freeride: with its forward pull and power, it delivers dynamic performance, allowing you to ride at top speed while maintaining perfect control.
- Transitions and rotations: thanks to its low aspect ratio, it makes jibes, tacks, and 360s easier, while minimizing the risk of catching the water.
- Freestyle and flatwater: designed for modern and complex maneuvers, it provides instant acceleration and explosive pop, perfect for chaining the most advanced tricks with fluidity.
- Commited surf: responsive and agile, it perfectly adapts to multi-peak waves, where being opportunistic and reactive is key, with precise control to push hard.
The carbon boom strengthens the profile's rigidity, ensuring consistent performance and an immediate response in any condition. Whatever the situation, your hands instinctively settle on the boom. The Droid Boom is a true powerhouse, built to push your boundaries and enhance your glide.
Droid or Neutra?
- Droid: Built for those who want to push their limits. With its focused power and explosive handling, it’s the ultimate wing for surf, freestyle, and flat-water tricks. While it excels in surf, its main goal is to elevate your performance to new heights.
- Neutra: Tailored for riders who focus on fluid glide and precise control in surfing. With its carbon boom, lighter than the handles, it offers exceptional maneuverability, making it perfect for endless turns in freefly or wave riding.
Each model has its own personality, but they all share a common goal: to provide you with the best experience on the water, with style and performance.
Understanding the GONG range
- Plus: a versatile, accessible wing designed for progression.
- Droid: a surf/freestyle wing with explosive power. It's also a top choice for lightwind conditions.
- Neutra: the smooth wing for surf, freefly, and endless carves.
- Pulse: the ultimate racing wing with incredible upwind ability and speed.
The Droid is your ultimate companion for thrilling, seamless sessions. With its compact design, agility, and exceptional performance, it transforms each ride into a flawless experience.
Which size?
Don’t overestimate the power of wings. A rider weighing 85kg will need 15-20 knots with a 5m² wing to fly at first. After about fifteen sessions, they will be able to fly at 15 knots with a 5m². And if they are athletic, they will pump hard and lift off at 12 knots in 5m² to get through lulls at 8 knots. This is a learning process and takes time. Month by month, as you explore more specialized gear, flying in winds under 10 knots will become easy.
Which material?
The choice of leading edge material depends mainly on your program and goals. If you prefer cruising in freeride, are just starting tricks, or enjoy surf and freefly, a Dacron leading edge and central strut will be ideal.
If, on the other hand, you love riding hard with a wing that pulls powerfully and will fly sky high, don’t hesitate! The UPE Aramid will provide absolute stiffness with undeniable advantages. The performance gap is significant—it goes faster, higher, and turns incredibly well thanks to its thinner diameters.
Finally, to push even further into the performance realm, combine the UPE Aramid structure with the ultra-rigid Code X canopy fabric. You’ll boost your performance by 15%, reaching the pinnacle of high-level wing performance.
As things move fast, our team requested that we create an even stiffer wing: the Aramid CZ technology is being launched this year with performance that is simply out of this world. More rigid, faster, and more powerful. This is for pro riders and highly skilled amateurs who are ready to be pushed to their limits.
Which quiver?
The Droid wing works with everything but pairs especially well with a compact, lightweight board—or a Cruzader for light wind.
Here are the typical pairings:
- Cruzader for light wind
- Mint for freeride
- Stunt for freestyle
- Mint, a short Cruzader, or a Lethal for freefly
- Lethal for surf
Naturally, it’s best matched with a performance-oriented foil, with an 85cm mast. Ideal foil pairings:
- Veloce HDW or Sirus for light wind
- Fluid for freeride
- Ypra Surf-Freestyle for freestyle
- Veloce for freefly
- Curve or Fluid for surf
To complete the setup, you can (and should) add a SUP or a surf foil for no-wind days, a kite to get airborne and probably a quiver of surfboards for those perfect waves. But if you’re venturing into wing foiling, chances are you already have some of these toys in your garage.
What leash?
A wing leash from 5'5" to 8' is ideal. Preferably one designed specifically for winging, and of the coiled-type leash style. A short leash makes it easier to grab the wing quickly. A long leash keeps the wing further away from foil drops in the sail, giving it more space to move.
Always check its condition before each session and replace it every year. It’s your life vest.
Don’t let your wing flap around in the wind at the end of the leash, it’s not indestructible! Also, in the waves, don’t hold onto the wing with the leash, it will break or you may injure yourself.
Harness or not?
The Droid doesn't require a harness for surf/freestyle as the reaches are short. However, it's a powerful and responsive wing that will be much more effective with a harness in a race program or even freeride, for those who want to fully exploit its capabilities.
Riding without a harness feels liberating as you have full freedom of movement. It’s a very pleasant feeling.
That being said, you’ll need to use a smaller wing and do shorter reaches to avoid tiring out your arms. This also means you'll have to pump frequently to take off again.
All our wings come with harness line attachments.
This gives you the option to use a harness or not.
Therefore, if you prefer to ride powered up, using a harness is almost essential if you don’t want your sessions to be cut short after an hour. Setting up the harness lines is very easy (refer to our tutorials on the forum). We suggest using the least rigid and most minimal harness, with either a small hook or a windsurf-style hook for better comfort.
Lengths of 24 to 28 cm between the strut and the V-shape’s end will be perfect.
A length of 30 to 32 cm makes learning easier. A small diameter line and a thin sheath are essential, as windsurfing lines, for example, are too heavy and rigid, making them dangerous during tacks and other tricks.
So it’s up to you to decide if the sensation and aesthetics take priority over performance. But more and more riders are using harnesses, as the trend is towards more powerful wings and higher performance.
Windows or full canopy?
Wings without windows are less expensive, 200g lighter, and more compact for storage.
Wings with windows are safer, more rigid, and offer quicker responsiveness.
For beginners, a wing with windows is essential because safety takes priority over the few grams you might lose. The windows are not for sightseeing: they are designed to let you see a silhouette to prevent executing a dangerous turn that could cause a collision.
Equipments
The Droid SP features 4 windows to maximize comfort in challenging conditions and ensure continued acceleration with safety when you’re racing with your friends. It was also a request from our Team (1st, 2nd, and 3rd in the 2024 GWA World Championship) to go even faster during the Slalom heats.
No more speed loss when lifting the wing to check downwind : Full speed mode.
Harness lines that can be fixed directly onto the boom and are fully compatible.
Our harness lines have been specially designed for this boom, allowing you to attach your GONG harness line and ride for hours without getting tired.
Semi-rigid textile Downwind handle
Almost rigid, but not completely to avoid damaging the board, it greatly enhances the control of the wing in both freefly and surfing.
The new oval stitching and reinforcements on the downwind handle anchor points help distribute the forces more evenly across the leading edge, ensuring long-lasting durability.
The Dyneema leash attachment is now located on the intrados side of the DW handle, preventing the leash from getting in the way while freeflying.
A carbon boom
Team Series and Pro Team Series wings are available only with a boom, as the benefits of this GONG innovation are manifold:
lighter
less drag
more grip
more comfort
improved performance
The boom has become essential for performing at the highest level. Indeed, one-handed tricks have become a must. And what a boost in freedom! Our wings feature the most ergonomic, lightweight, durable, and rigid boom on the market.
Our prepreg carbon boom offers a significant weight reduction compared to rigid handles, as it eliminates two fixations, saving over 200 grams. This is further complemented by an additional 30 grams saved thanks to the thinner strut.
This weight saving is crucial for surfing and freefly, as it ensures the wing remains perfectly neutral and balanced.
Zero flex in the strut thanks to the carbon boom, which absorbs the forces. A strut that doesn't bend means a taut trailing edge, resulting in a powerful wing that doesn't flutter and offers perfect glide.
The boom features a pistol grip at the front, allowing you to maintain and adjust the power as needed. This eliminates the risk of flapping, which can slow you down in waves, particularly when surfing in offshore winds.
The strut’s shape and the boom’s angle are carefully engineered to trim the wing naturally, eliminating the need to constantly bend your back arm. This not only balances the traction in your arms but also allows you to generate maximum power with minimal effort, perfect for jumps and other maneuvers.
This is also highly useful when you’re overpowered: gone is the feeling of being yanked, as the wing stays really controllable, ensuring maximum comfort.
Quick inflation with the One Pump system
The leading edge and central strut are connected by the One Pump system for quick inflation in one go. The clip then locks the airflow between the bladders to ensure the wing’s buoyancy in case of a leak in the strut or leading edge. This feature is vital for safety.
The inflation valve on the leading edge is doubled on the strut for immediate deflation and compact storage. Using One Pump, you inflate through the leading edge only in a few seconds and deflate just as quickly by unscrewing both valves.
Always deflate the strut at the same time as the leading edge. Wings don’t like to stay inflated with just the strut pressurized.
Fiberglass micro-battens
Micro fiberglass battens on the trailing edge: light and very effective in preventing flapping. They maintain the profile all the way to the trailing edge for optimal airflow.
Lightweight and strong, they are easily replaceable to keep your wing in top condition year after year.
Camera safety loops
To capture your wing sessions, we’ve added a discreet nylon leash attachment on each tip and near the strut to secure your camera mounted on the leading edge or strut with a Flymount, allowing you to ride without stress. The leash attachment is strategically placed so it doesn’t interfere with your camera’s field of view! You’ll be able to create stunning shots and share them without the risk of losing your camera!
Repair kit
A repair kit, including bladder patches and fabric, is included with your wing.
Carry bag
A durable and practical shoulder bag comes with your wing. It’s perfectly designed with a large U-shaped zipper for easy storage, a ventilation grid, comfortable padding, compression straps, and straps for the pump (not provided).
Don't forget to bring a pump!
