Buying guide

For whom?

The Unik is truly the kite for everyone. Easy and light, it will simplify the sessions for progressing kiters. Playful to the core, it will be adored by pros as well.

It's really the kite that suits everyone for its flight qualities.

For what?

The Unik is all about freedom from constraints. Light, easy, and efficient, it can be taken into all sorts of programs as a kite that excels in light wind conditions.

Foil, of course, and surfing, but also laid-back freeride sessions, not to mention travels.

This kite can do it all and is flown lightly to simply enjoy a maneuverable, powerful, and light kite.

What Kite size?

Powerful and single-strut, it's certainly a kite that excels in light wind conditions. Far from being a constraint, it's a pleasure to fly a reassuring and maneuverable kite.

Choose your kite following our recommendations below. Wind ranges always depend on your weight, skill level, and the type of board you're using!

What Bar size?

The choice of your bar size will have a direct impact on the overall feel of your kite. Remember that the longer your bar, the easier it will be to turn your kite. This detail is important when using larger kites, especially in very light winds, to maintain good responsiveness. The longer leverage compensates for this natural loss of responsiveness.

On the contrary, the smaller the kite, the faster it will turn! So, using a smaller bar allows you to balance behaviors and calm down kite reactions. Therefore, consider these factors when choosing the size of your bar and adjust the control to the feeling you like and the conditions you encounter.

If you prefer smooth and gradual control, you should "undersize" your bar. If you prefer fast and responsive control, you should choose a larger bar.

The key size is the 52cm bar. It is the most versatile bar to choose if you want to have only one bar for a quiver of 7-9-12 or 8-11 or even 8-10-13.

When you are equipped with an extended kite quiver, it's best to also have a range of bar sizes to maintain a balanced feel when switching from a small kite to a larger one. Also, note that having two bars reduces wear on parts by half!

Here are our recommendations:

The above recommendations are based on the behavior of GONG kites. Since our bars are compatible with a wide range of kites, you can adapt your choice based on the type of kite used.

Line Length:

Your Feel-X bar comes standard with 80cm front lines, 19m of lines, and 3m extensions already mounted.

The original setup is the most versatile and will be your best choice for 90% of your sessions.

One of the main advantages of the Feel-X bar is its great tolerance provided by its shape. By playing with its lengths, or even modifying them with our extensions (sold separately), you further enhance its versatility!

22m Lines: The "standard" length provides a more progressive and predictable bar feeling (recommended setting for progressing kiters). Your flight window will be larger, offering more power at takeoff. This is the setting to favor in light to medium wind conditions, and for everyday freeride use.

19m Lines: Shorter lines offer a more direct response from the kite, increasing its reactivity. The flight window will be shorter. This is the perfect setting for advanced kiters, especially for wave riding or foil for more agility. If you choose to ride with shorter lines, you will also gain comfort in high wind conditions.

Note that 22m and 19m are not extreme line lengths and remain a fine adjustment to your piloting sensation.

Accessories :

To complement the essential elements of this pack, here is a selection of accessories that are perfectly adapted to your practice:

For your safety:

A HELMET et IMPACT VEST to protect you in the event of a fall and allow you to progress safely.

To inflate your wing :

KITE/WING DOUBLE ACTION PUMP.

For protection and maintenance of your gear: (highly recommended option to guarantee its durability)

KITE DAY BAG TWIN TIP : The perfect everyday board bag to protect your twin tip.
KITE BOARD BAG TT PRO : The perfect bag for your kite quiver.
SURF SOCKS : The perfect sock to protect your board.

DOES THE UNIK FLY IN 6 KNOTS ?

The Unik is particularly light, without sacrificing durability! With its pronounced arc, it stays in place at the zenith, without ever falling back. You can go into the water without risking it falling.

A lull? A downloop and voila, it's back up at the zenith as if nothing happened. This behavior is great when you're foiling in less than 10 knots, for example. With a 3-strut kite, it's either technical or a hassle. With the Unik, it's a non-event because it stays in the air.

The relaunch is also greatly facilitated by the weight gain and shape of the Unik. Finally, not only does it fly in less than 6 knots, but it's also super cool to pilot in light winds, chaining full-speed runs and crazy moves.

IS THE UNIK EFFECTIVE IN STRONG WINDS ?

Without a doubt, as long as you ask it to do what it loves. If you want to score the most extreme kite loops: no. But if you ask it to surf, with a magical glide, it will give you a sense of freedom with its lightness that many will love.

It's not a kite that you'll ride at breakneck speeds, overloaded to the max. No, it's a kite that you fly cleanly, which gives you the ability to ride super smoothly. It's especially a kite that we love in light wind conditions. So, a small kite relative to the wind, which will give you incredible maneuverability.

Its impeccable behavior makes it a very safe kite for riding in waves, even in strong winds.

WHAT INFLATION PRESSURE?

The recommended pressure is indicated in the “Size guide”, at the top of the page.

You need to consider certain elements:

An underinflated kite will be unstable and difficult to control in gusty winds. Relaunching will also be more complicated with a kite that doesn't maintain its shape.
An overinflated kite increases the risk of explosion during a crash and will fatigue the seams and materials of your kite more quickly.
If you leave your kite inflated in the sun for a long period, we recommend slightly deflating it to reduce the risk of seam fatigue.

KITE WITH OR WITHOUT PULLEYS?

The Unik is a lightweight and accessible kite. A bridle without pulleys like the Elips would give it too reactive a behavior. Conversely, 3 pulleys like the Vertigo would decrease the simplicity of this kite.

We have therefore chosen a short bridle with a single friction ring pulley. This type of bridle, simple and proven, offers control, tolerance, and remains simple to limit wear and provide an additional sense of security.

COMPATIBILITY OF BARS ?

The Unik has been developed to work with the FeelX bar. Our bar has 4 lines of equal lengths and a low V at the front.

The attachments for the lines at the bridle level are:

Kite-side loops for the front lines.
Kite-side knots for the back lines.

HOW TO MAINTAIN MY KITE EQUIPMENT ?

To increase the longevity of your kite equipment, the way you use it and its regular maintenance are crucial.

A key point during usage is not to leave your kite inflated for long periods without use! Flapping of the fabric in the wind can cause premature wear of the materials, as can prolonged exposure to UV rays.

Frequent rinsing of your kite with running water is also not recommended. The chlorine present in tap water can alter the surface treatments of your kite.

However, it is advisable to store your kite dry and remove any excess sand. Always rinse your bar with clean water to remove sand and salt. Also, remember to open the safety release mechanism to rinse its interior. Let it dry before reassembling.

In case of a pierced strut or leading edge, use your repair kit, or check our spare parts to order the replacement piece. Systematically inspect the condition of your kite.

Identify any holes or tears and have them repaired before they worsen. If you have damaged your kite due to improper use, you can have it repaired directly at the GONG workshop by contacting our sail loft: here
