Armstrong

The HS1125 can be ridden to good effect, the turning radius is surprisingly good for is high aspect ratio. The sleek, inflected tips help prevent ventilation even if a tip breaches. It’s next level pump and glide make it easy to double dip! For experienced wingers there is no comparison. It makes tacking fun and easy as the glide gives you so much time to complete maneuvers like 360’s. Combine this with amazing upwind angles and outrageous downwind glide, as well as freakish light wind performance and the riding it just never stops. We recommend the setup below, much depends on rider weight, ability and chosen foil sports.

Wing: HA1125

Mast: M85cm/33.5”

Fuselage: TC60

Tail Wing: Flying V

Shims: PPC

The Armstrong HA925 just happens to be a magic number, the surface area, section thickness and planform give this wing something very special. We had no idea that a HA wing would ever be so effective in the surf, prone or Sup! It has mind blowing carving turns or snaps, stability at speed and phenomenal glide so linking or double dipping is easy! For the performance winger the HA925 just keeps on going and flowing! Crank upwind, catch a micro bump for miles or edge hard and send it, the speed this thing generates sends you up with Branson and Basos! If you need a glide for Pump or Downwinding then there will be no disappointment here, this wing has the glide of an albatross.

The Armstrong HS High Speed Foil kits are super stable, responsive and have great glide. It is the foil of choice for foilboarders looking for fast carving turns. HS kits are the next step for progressive foilers wanting to take their riding to the next level.

Armstring Downwind Foilboard.

Downwind SUP foiling is part of the Armstrong DNA. As a pioneer in the sport, Armie introduced downwind SUP foiling to the 2016 Gorge Paddle Challenge, 2017 Na Pali coast race and the 2018 Molokai2Oahu race with other early innovators of DW foiling. Their new DW board range combines this historical passion and motivation with their latest design knowledge.

Sleek lines, innovative volume distribution and state of the art construction help create a range of boards that are fast, stiff, light and easy to get on foil. Five sizes make sure that everyone who wants to sample the DW stoke is covered.

The speed of these DW boards combined with their high volumes also makes them exceptional for light wind winging, SUP surf foiling and prone downwinding.

FEATURES:

• High volume shape with a subtle deck recess for good feel and control while remaining easy to paddle.
• V nose to subtle double concave up to the foil boxes reduces drag on touch downs, and the pin tail acts like a fin for easy tracking when paddling.
• Round rails at front help accelerate the board into bumps.
• The shape of the bottom chines is inspired by the Performance mast foil section for efficient water release and zippy acceleration onto bumps.
• Length to width ratio is optimised across the range for glide when paddling without compromising stability.
• Stiff, lightweight carbon PVC innegra sandwich construction with industry leading double carbon sandwich stringer system for a direct connection to the foil.
• Proprietary custom carbon FG tracks for maximum strength, stiffness and durability.

Armstrong 's new and innovative “FORWARD GEOMETRY” wing surf board designs highlight the drive and passion Armstrong has to always be improving and maximising the potential of every ride.

The logic behind Forward Geometry is all about the mast track position in relation to the center of the board. The further forward the mast can go the better, it improves maneuverability, response and dramatically reduces the rotational swing weight effect. Combine this with state-of-the-art 320mm Carbon fiber A+System Mast Tracks and you have maximum potential to get your board and foils geometry working for you!

Without question, shorter boards offer superior maneuverability, feel and control once on the fly but getting them there is not so easy. Until now that is, as boards get shorter it becomes important to maximise stability and hull speed when still attached to the water. The new Forward Geometry shapes from Armstrong have addressed this issue with a beautiful innovative approach enabling everyone to take advantage of the benefits riding shorter boards.

The new Forward Geometry range of boards are packed full of innovation. Forward Geometry… Armstrong's new A+System Mast Tracks are positioned well forward in the board to reduce rotational swing weight which radically improves handling and response. High strength custom Carbon fiber A+System Mast Tracks… Plastic simply does not do the job well enough, so they designed their own 320mm Carbon Fiber mast tracks. Recessed deck… This brings you closer to the mast top for direct handling and feel. Through deck carry handle/water evacuation… Easy to carry top or bottom, the through board handle is also the water evacuation for the recessed deck. Extended waterline profile view… Speed is the key, so Armstrong uses all the boards waterline to help accelerate the board forward. Chisel-nose outline… Offers stability on the water and helps push the water under the board rather than splitting it around the board. Aggressive nose rocker into an accentuated double concave to flat… This is all about bringing the nose up quickly to accelerate the water down the double concave to flat bottom at the tail. Innovative tail shape… For better acceleration, less drag at the rear waterline release area, it looks faster because it is!

Accentuated chines… As the board picks up speed and the foil starts to lift, the contact area reduces, making for a smooth transition from on the water to foiling and also seamless touchdowns as the board does not grab as it touches the water’s surface. Stable Volume distribution… The recessed deck, wide Chisel nose and relatively rectangular outline means we can push the volume to the extremities, makes for a stable platform when on the water. Light and strong… Lightweight is nothing without strength so Armstrong chose the best materials to keep the boards both light and strong. Foam core with multiple PVC reinforcements, Dual Carbon stingers, covered with Carbon fiber and Dyneema cloth.

The Armstrong A-Wing V2’s stiff airframe reduces sail deformation when highly powered, jumping or pumping the wing for power in light winds. The thick leading edge is not only for structural stability it also defines the nose radius of the aerofoil section which is responsible for generating the power of the wing in flight!

The solid airframe of the A-Wing is the second ingredient to power and performance. Balanced Across a wide range of conditions, the A-Wing V2 is well balanced. The load distribution between the front and rear hand, make it comfortable and less physically fatiguing for long sessions. When riding waves or swells the V2 floats effortlessly on the font handle and feels more manoeuvrable when tacking, gibing or tricking around!

Features:

• Redefined sail tension and seams, improving the loaded section airfoil shape.
• Elongated windows plus added rear window for improved visibility.
• New X-ply power panel laminate added to canopy in Central load zone.
• Aramid reinforcements for protection while reducing weight over V1.
• New improved handle construction and attachments for direct feel and control.
• New leash lock webbing strap for load distribution when on leash or being rumbled by waves.

Package: The A-Wing comes complete with carry bag and wrist leash.

The Armstrong HEX Fuselage is a ground breaking work of art in terms of engineering and design.

The fuselage has a solid Titanium core running throughout its length. The core is then shrouded in 5mm solid wall Carbon tube. The multi wing HEX fitting for the mast and front wing gives 360 degree surface contact, maximising the load distributing area.

This unique fuselage construction easily handles the highly leveraged opposing flex loads as the mast and wings are directly keyed into the Titanium core, taking your ride to the next level.

Highly responsive for prone surf, wing, wake foiling and SUP surf/downwinding. Collaborating with a team of America’s Cup foil engineers, Armstrong set out to develop a high performance mast to take themselves into the future. Their design goal called for a unique blend of strength, stiffness, drag and light weight. Combining CFD analysis with expert insight allowed them to tune each section of the mast from baseplate to fuselage connection for maximum efficiency.

Structural analysis shows that a combination of both high modulus (HM) and intermediate modulus (IM) carbon fibers best distributes loads throughout various sections of the mast. HM's stiffness minimizes flex in the mast's central strut area and IM's high tensile strength caters to the complex shapes of the top plate and fuselage connection.

The result is a top of the line mast consisting of top shelf materials, new mast section, refined baseplate, reduced drag fuselage connection and new construction method. Proprietary titanium M7 mast top hardware follows suit with a strong, light and drag reducing connection to the board.

These masts are designed with a mast rake angle. This fine tunes the board angle relative to the foil for a more comfortable and forgiving ride. It does not change the lifting force or balance of the foil itself, and it does not impact the foil’s “foot pressure” bias front or back. Board rocker also directly determines effective mast rake – boards from different brands have a variety of different rocker lines which influence rake angle – and more rocker in the rear half of board effectively increases mast rake. The 1 degree of rake Armstrong have placed specifically into the top of the Performance Mast shape provides three main benefits by adjusting the board relative to the foil underwater:

• By bringing the foil closer to 0 degrees when the board is in the water, drag is reduced which makes takeoffs easier.
• Touching down at speed or landing a jump is more forgiving and there’s less chance of crashing headfirst over the board.
• By lifting the board nose slightly (1 degree = 17.46mm/m), mast rake makes it easier to ride fast without catching the nose at steep riding angles.

Simply put, the Performance Mast range takes the sublime Armstrong feeling further than ever.
