Presentation of the advantages of single-skin and double-skin lowkites. The GONG range is split into two categories:

- Our single-skin lowkites, the Plus and the Neutra, are built for downwind adventures and cruising. They give you just the right boost to get on foil, then tuck away under a rashguard or in a backpack so you can focus on endless bump-to-bump gliding. Pair them with a board and a high-volume foil to stay light and efficient without having to oversize the kite.
- Our double-skin lowkites, the Droid and the Pulse, are designed for surf-freestyle and freeride/freerace, respectively. Here, the goal is no longer to pack away the kite once on foil but to ride as you would in wing foiling or kitesurfing, with full mobility across the water. The same board and foil as in wing foiling are used to take full advantage of the double-skin performance.

In this video, Patrice Guénolé, founder and shaper of GONG, presents the specific advantages of each type of lowkite.
