As mentioned in the other thread, my mate ordered a 3 wing setup from Gong.
M, L , XL with (I think a 70mm and 80mm mast).
Most of this will be a comparison between the Gofoil Kai, Iwa, 200 24” mast set I have.
I’ll add increments as I ride all the wings, different boards etc. sorry no pics right now, but I’ll try to get some comparison shots to upload when I can.
The M is a bit bigger than the Kai. Not by much
The L is a bit bigger than the Iwa. Not by much
The XL is about the same as the 200.
The finish is nice, actually nicer and more precise than my Gofoil....I’m not sure how old mine is, but the Maliko stab looked like it was drawn by crayon until I cleaned it up.
They come in a nice carry case.
The wings are a bit heavier than Gofoil.
The wings are a bit Flatter than Gofoil. NOT MALIKO 160 FLAT, but a bit less anhedral.
They aren’t copies of the Gofoil in outline or profile, but are quite similar in most respects.
I only rode the XL today. Board was a 4’0” choad I shaped. First up I surfed my M200 on a nice light 4’4” of my construction. Wave was a 2’ wedge with whitewash takeoffs. Easy wave especially for 2fors. Had fun.
Strapped on the XL and repeated.
Gong was lifty, maybe a tad faster (I’d say def faster than the og Maliko stab). I needed to move it further up in the boxes compared to the 200.
It didn’t roll over as easily as the 200 (not by much) but it did yaw more easily with the flatter wing etc. minor adjustment to technique on my part and it was all good.
I got a nice pump run on it, and it did every thing it should’ve done.
So far so good! A bargain for the price.
