The GONG Plus lowkite is the ultimate gateway to lowkiting.
Simple, reassuring, and efficient, it offers a whole new way to glide on a foil—replacing a paddle and making your first steps in this challenging sport much easier.
As the first generation of lowkites, the Plus lowkite was designed to make learning smooth and intuitive. Its single-skin construction, combined with a pronounced arc and short bridle, ensures outstanding stability in the air—perfect for focusing on those first take-offs without worrying about an unstable kite.
Thanks to its deep profile and wide tips, it delivers smooth, consistent power for effortless take-offs and optimal control in underpowered conditions. To get the best out of it, pair it with a high-lift foil and a board with good glide, so you don’t need to overpower this single-skin lowkite.

Its convenient design makes it the perfect choice for riders who want an accessible and easy-to-transport solution as it doesn’t take up much space in a boardbag or luggage when traveling.
The Plus lowkite’s uninflated design removes the hassle of bladders, such as punctures or pressure loss, and makes maintenance much easier. As a single-skin kite, it won’t soak up water, making it easy to handle on the water. Its bright color adds an extra layer of safety, perfect for your first sessions. With its reliability and simplicity, it’s the perfect option to get started with confidence.
With the Plus lowkite, you’ll experience a whole new level of glide: instant take-offs, solid stability, and intuitive maneuverability. It allows you to enjoy bumps and long glides on the foil without the usual constraints of paddle-powered sessions. This model acts like a real catapult, propelling you efficiently onto your foil and paving the way for smooth, effortless glide.
Contrary to popular belief, riding with a lowkite requires some practice. But the Plus is the perfect tool to help you get past the learning curve. After about ten sessions, you’ll be fully in control of this kite, able to tackle everything from your first take-offs to epic downwinds, and even underpowered rides on a large board.
