Program
Mid-length inflatable wingfoil board designed for pure glide.
Presentation
Exceptional glide, allround performance, and easy to transport—the HIPE Diamond is a key highlight of our new HIPE wingfoil range.
The HIPE Diamond lets you take off early while maintaining exceptional versatility: freeride, freefly, freesurf, jumps—it does it all, with that extra touch of glide.
Its slim profile and lightweight construction provide smooth and fast acceleration for an effortless early takeoff when pumping. No more exhausting pumping, no need for oversized wings. You ride relaxed. And that’s just awesome. Striking the perfect balance, this mid-length board combines the best of downwind shapes with the agility of compact boards.
Available in six sizes from 4'6 to 6'3 (65L to 115L), the HIPE Diamond is built to suit every rider and every wingfoil adventure—light wind, freeride, downwind, or waveriding. It’s the ultimate travel companion for those who refuse to compromise on conditions while on the go.
The Team has put the Diamond to the test in all conditions—45 knots, tropical waters, Tahiti—and the HIPE has always delivered. It truly is the versatile and durable inflatable wingfoil board that will keep up with your riding and progression for years to come.
STREAMLINED OUTLINE
This new mid-length shape features a sleek outline for optimal glide, smooth takeoffs, and effortless relaunches.
The wide tail provides plenty of lift before flight, ensuring excellent stability for takeoff.
The rounded nose is designed for comfort and confidence—it glides beautifully while offering just the right amount of support before takeoff, without the risk of nose-diving.
We’re hooked on its signature inflatable board glide. With rounded rails and a thick tail boosting speed before takeoff, you’ll be up and flying just as fast as on a hard board. It’s seriously mind-blowing.
ROCKER
The tight rocker is ideal for boosting the takeoff phase.
The flat tail rocker enhances takeoff in light wind. In stronger conditions, it ensures quick relaunch, allowing the board to lift out of the water smoothly without being affected by chop and waves.
The slightly raised nose provides a soft touch and excellent glide before takeoff.
RIGID TAIL RAIL
To enhance the takeoff, our designers created a rigid rail at the board's tail, drawing direct inspiration from the sharp edge at the tail of rigid wing boards. It ensures a smooth release of the water flow at the back of the hull, leading to improved glide before flying, which enhances acceleration. You pump less and fly sooner.
DIAMOND TAIL
With the stiff rail and an extended waterline from the diamond tail, takeoffs get an extra shot of power.
RAILS
With its rounded rails and thick tail, the HIPE Diamond delivers incredible glide before takeoff. You’ll be up and flying as fast as on a rigid board, especially with the added boost from the rigid tail rail. It’s seriously mind-blowing.

Buying guide
For whom?
Looking for an insane glide, to pump as little as possible, without having to use a long downwind board? The HIPE Diamond is for you.
You will need to have a minimum of experience to hold on to a relatively narrow and lively board.
For what?
The HIPE Diamond is the versatile board to glide without having to oversize the wing, nor stretching your arms.
Freeride, freefly, freesurf, free to have it your way is its credo ;-)
It really is a board with a superb glide. It is great for boosting your progress and offering you effective support. In its shortest formats, the HIPE Diamond is seriously geared towards performance and top level in its preferred areas of lightwind, freeride and downwinds.
What size?
The HIPE Diamond is a high performance wing board. But by playing with the volumes, we can adapt it to our needs:
your weight plus 30 gives the total liters to progress. Example: I weigh 70kg + 30 = 100L minimum to progress with a lively but easy board.
your weight plus 10 gives the total liters to perform. Example: I weigh 70kg + 10 = 80L ideally to progress with a radical board.
Which quiver mates?
The HIPE Diamond is an incredible foil board that can become the cornerstone of your quiver and travel with you anywhere.
An 85cm HM mast will be perfect for a smooth, relaxed ride.
Of course, you should complement it with a selection of SUPs, with or without a foil, and surfboards for the days when the waves are pumping—so you can make the most of every session.
Which shape?
The concept of each board of the range can be summed up very simply:
HIPE FIRST: The perfect inflatable foil board for starting out and progressing strapless.
HIPE LEARN: The inflatable board for learning—stable on the water, ideal for first flights, and SUP foil compatible.
HIPE PERF: the inflatable board with 95% of the performance of rigid boards in an easy and scalable shape.
HIPE FREEFLY: the best strapless inflatable foil board.
HIPE STUNT: the inflatable board for surfing/freestyle scoring.
HIPE LETHAL: the must-have inflatable board for wave riding.
HIPE DIAMOND: mid-length with the glide of a downwinder and the handling of a compact board.
HIPE CRUZADER: the inflatable “downwinder” for the highest performance in light wind winging and obviously in DW.
ZUMA: the easy rigid board for SUP foiling and wing foiling, and with good performance.
LANCE: the compact Zuma, with great lateral stability, ideal for beginnings in wing foiling.
CRUZADER POINT: fantastic in SUP downwinders, pumping on the flat, but also in light wind conditions for wing foiling, freefly, surfing, etc…
CRUZADER DIAMOND: compact and easy to paddle shape for downwind SUPing. In wing foiling it’s ideal for light wind conditions, surfing and downwinders.
FLINT: high performance in SUP foiling, really cool for wing foiling because it is simple, stable and efficient. All in one.
MINT: absolute efficiency and ease thanks to its glide. A first-class wing board for take offs in a versatile shape geared towards surfing and freeride.
LEMON: top-notch responsiveness and liveliness in surfing, high performance in freestyle, great stability and lots of glide.
STUNT: 100% surf-freestyle. Great maneuverability. Instant take offs and re-pops.
LETHAL: Absolute surfing radicality for a magical ride in all types of waves.
Which foil wings?
Our V3 foil range is now divided into 3 families:
- Perf Series for progression.
- Team Series for performance.
- Team Pro for competition.
For beginners:
In the Perf Series V3 range, our X-Over: the first wings that are super easy and efficient at low speeds:
- M for 50kg -> 65kg and all wind conditions.
- L for 65kg -> 75kg and all wind conditions.
- XL for 75kg -> 85kg and all wind conditions.
- XXL for 85kg and above or wind under 15 knots.
The Ascent foil: versatile and faster, for allround performance:
- S for under 65kg and all wind conditions.
- M for 65kg -> 75kg and all wind conditions.
- L for 75kg -> 85kg and all wind conditions.
- XL for 85kg -> 95kg and all wind conditions.
- XXL for 95kg and above or wind under 15 knots.
For experienced riders:
In the Team Series V3, here are our recommendations to match the HIPE Cruzader’s program:
Curve H: Designed for carving, with a moderate + ratio and excellent control in all conditions. Ideal for freeride and waves, offering forgiveness and comfort.
Veloce H: A foil focused on glide and speed, with a high ratio for amazing glide while maintaining good rail-to-rail maneuverability. Perfect for freefly, surf, and light winds.
Veloce HDW: The downwind version of the Veloce, with an extreme ratio for sessions requiring endless glide: downwind, freefly, pumping, smooth surf, light wind… highly efficient with minimal effor
Sirus: A foil with very high lift even at low speeds, for infinite pumping and lightwind in marginal conditions. Its maneuverability in smaller sizes is perfect for small swells and slow bumps in downwind.
General information on the choice of stab sizes.
The preferred size will depend on your foiling discipline, your level, your weight, the conditions of your spot but also your front wing.
A larger stab will make take-off easier because the foil will generate a significant torque which will tend to give it a significant angle of attack. This also implies more front foot pressure.
A smaller stab will be more technical on takeoff but will boost speed and maneuverability. We also lose some front foot pressure, which means having to move the foil forward in the boxes to regain this stability.
Always adjust the size of the stab to the size of the front wing to obtain a balanced flight and functioning harmony between these two components.
For more details, check out the article on the V3 foil range and a specific size guide for each foil on its product page. We still provide some tips below.
Which foil mast?
During your first sessions, you can reassure yourself with a short mast (65cm). Falls on the first flights will be less impressive. But apart from when launching, you will have everything to gain with a long mast (85cm and more).
More length = more headroom = easier = more efficient.
In choppy water, in transitions, in sluggish waters, a large mast will be ten times more pleasant. It will save you from touchdowns and give you the necessary height margin in all your actions.
In pure Race, of course, the must-have is the 107 cm HM mast. Absolutely magical. But the 95 cm aluminum or 92 cm HM are also fantastic.
For Freerace, a long mast is essential. It’s not more difficult and will make fast tacks easier.
In Freeride, we often seek simplicity and versatility. The 85 cm is a great choice. The 92 cm is for those who want more flexibility.
In Freestyle, we recommend 85 cm to maintain a dynamic and controllable rail-to-rail.
In Surf, we prioritize radicality and control, so the 85 cm is ideal. But in solid waves, the 92 cm will give you more room to apply huge angles without dramatically stalling at the bottom, for example.
Lastly, remember that a 1.5° rake shim under an 85 cm mast will give you the same nose-up margin as a 92 cm. It’s the ultimate hack.
To sum up, for waves, freestyle, and even for beginners and progression, an 85 cm mast (V2 or HM depending on your budget) is perfect. Easy to get into the water, simple for rail-to-rail transitions, it’s perfect.
A 92 cm mast or larger will be aimed at racing, providing more stability at high
Positioning of the foil?
For GONG foils, place the top plate in the center of the US rails to start and move it forward a few centimeters when you get into transitions (a sign of good progress).
The more you move it forward, the more the board will pitch nose-up. The more you move it backwards, the more the board nose-dives.
Be careful not to move it too far forward. We often tend not to let their back foot work, especially when we come from kite foiling. However, moving the foil back a little, forces more weight on the back foot and gives a more harmonious attitude and reduces effort
Which accessories?
Safety is crucial in all board sports, and even more so with foiling.
Wing leash is a not an option. Without it, your wing can drift dozens of meters away in seconds, stopping only when it crashes into something—usually with damage.
A board leash is crucial, particularly when starting out. It keeps your board nearby, giving you a safety float and preventing it from hitting others. Opt for a 6’ leash with at least a 7mm diameter. Inspect it before each session and replace it yearly—it’s your lifeline.
For optimal safety, a helmet and an impact vest are absolute must-haves.
To enhance safety, we’ve created the Bodyguard textile range, designed to reduce the risk of foil cuts. While the danger is always there, it’s even more significant during the learning phase. We strongly advise taking every precaution possible.
STRAPPED or STRAPLESS? 2 or 3 STRAPS?
In wing foil, riding strapless feels cool and gives you total freedom. But honestly, performance takes a serious hit…
So, it’s up to you—do you prioritize sensation or performance? On a HIPE Diamond, you’ll clearly miss out on a large part of its potential without straps.
Front straps give you better control and reduce the risk of the foil flipping under your feet. When starting out, they’re a crucial guide for foot positioning and will fast-track your progress.
In the waves, it’s obvious—you gain so much with straps, including the back strap. You can save crazy situations just by pulling on your feet. And when it comes to tricks: the range of moves expands drastically with straps. Every jump is possible, and the inflatable’s cushioning is great for the knees ;-)
Begin with only the front straps. You can attach the rear strap as a reference point and a handy grip, but avoid using it at first. Once you're fully comfortable flying, shift the foil back by 2cm to gradually get accustomed to the rear strap.
Good to know:
Never leave your board in the sun—especially an inflatable board, and even more so a black carbon plate, which heats up quickly. Excessive heat can cause delamination!
Be careful when screwing into the foil box. If you go too deep, you’ll pierce the inflatable shell. We supply closed US box inserts, but caution is key.
Never let your foil board get caught in breaking waves, especially near shore. A wave rolling your board can cause significant damage.
Equipments
SCS System
The composite plate is equipped with Smart Connection System (SCS) double entry boxes to easily install and adjust the foil. The double holes correspond to the stance of the holes in your GONG foil plate. Simply present the foil with the brass nuts already mounted on the plate, slide them into the rails without disassembling, tighten the 4 screws, and you're ready to go.
To facilitate foil assembly, our new US fixing brass nuts are connected by a carbon fiber rod and are included with the board. This saves time for foil assembly, and the adjustment is precise. No more risk of losing your brass nuts: you leave them screwed on the plate and slide them into the US rails using the 4 new insertion holes. There's nothing to disassemble: just tighten the screws and go!
Foil adjustment is also easier and more precise with the adjustment information engraved on the plate.
Carrying handle
The handle in the carbon plate, placed on the hull, is a real comfort enhancement for launching and carrying over short distances. And it has no impact on the rigidity and strength of our plate, which are flawless.
Full deck pad
The premium full-length 5mm pad delivers maximum grip and comfort while riding.
With its Ridge Traction grooving, borrowed from our hard boards, it delivers superior comfort, unmatched non-slip performance for maximum stability and offers firm support with the best grip and comfort during navigation.
Unlike the dropstitch surface of the board, the pad provides instant feedback—you’ll immediately feel whether your foot is correctly positioned.
Transport bag with compartments
The HIPE Diamond comes in a super practical and durable wheeled travel bag.
Generously sized, it holds your HIPE, foil, and wing while staying within baggage limits on most airlines.
The backpack straps are thickly padded for extra comfort, while the reinforced handles are both sturdy and pleasant to grip.
Integrated compartments on the inside front panel allow for secure and organized storage of your foil parts and hardware. Plus, compression straps minimize the bag’s volume for easy transport.
Pump, hardwave and repair kit
The fast double-action pump included is highly efficient, so you’ll be the first one on the water.
The board comes with all necessary screws for the straps and foil top plate.
A repair kit is also included in case of damage (please note that the kit does not include glue, but you can easily find PVC glue at your local hardware store). We also keep spare components in stock, so you can easily restore your board to like-new condition. Everything on an inflatable board is repairable!
Equipment included:
ICS carbon plate.
Ridge Traction 5 mm integral deck pad: non-slip and durable deck covering.
2 Non-through SCS inserts joined by a carbon fiber rod.
