GONG Veloce HDW S + 77 HM v3 Mast | First run on a 750 sqcm Foil

Описание: Just had my first proper run on the brand-new GONG Veloce HDW S, and I’m already loving it! It paddles up easier than I expected, especially for such a small foil at 750 sqcm. Despite the less-than-ideal conditions, I had an absolute blast. I’m still getting used to overtaking smaller wind bumps to stay with the faster-moving energy, but I caught a glimpse of how amazing it feels when everything aligns. Staying in the energy with such an efficient foil is a total game-changer compared to what I’ve used before. I can’t wait for more of this fast-paced downwinding!

The V3 setup is incredible! The connection is a massive improvement. The 77 Mast is longer than the AXIS UHM 80 and has way more chord, but it feels amazing on the water. It's a night-and-day difference, especially coming from the 19mm Axis alloy mast. The Veloce S stab pairs perfectly with the S front wing—stable at speed, easy to pump, and not too locked in. Really enjoyed it!
