Armstrong

State of the art boards that are stiff, strong and ultra thin for a pure connection to the foil. The WKT board range was specifically developed for the rigours of wake, kite and tow foiling. A high tech moulded carbon construction delivers incredible stiffness and durability while keeping volume and thickness to a minimum. The result is a highly responsive feel with sublime connectivity to the foil.

FEATURES:

• Ultra tough C beam construction
• Chisel nose outline and progressive rocker
• High strength custom carbon fibre A+System mast tracks
• Titanium footstrap inserts

137cm: 4'6 x 18.5”, 11.5L: The largest size in the range easily rebounds off the water when landing airs, making it ideal for heavier riders. Rookies will find it accelerates their progression with forgiving waterstarting characteristics.

Recommendations:

• WAKE: rookies 65-89kg (143-196lb), intermediates >89kg (196lb)
• KITE: rookies 65-89kg (143-196lb), intermediates >89kg (196lb)
• TOW: rookies 79-89kg (171-196lb)

122cm: 4'0 x 17.25”, 9.5L: The perfect balance of length and low volume for experienced wake and kite riders. For advanced tow foilers, this is the go to size.

Recommendations:

• WAKE, KITE: intermediates 65-89kg (143-196lb)
• TOW: advanced all weights

109cm: 3'7 x 16.5”, 8.2L: The smallest WKT suits light or advanced riders in all three sports. Its minimal length also makes it an ideal choice for flatwater pump foiling.

Recommendations:

• WAKE, KITE, TOW: advanced all weights, rookies <64kg (141lb)
• FLATWATER PUMPING: all weights

Armstrong A Wing XPS Wind wing. Whether it’s free flying, wave riding or freestyle, the all new A-Wing XPS delivers next generation performance, power and control. We recruited the world’s leading wing and kite designers to push this shape to the next level. Each aspect of the new A-Wing XPS was tirelessly thought out, tested and finely tuned in a wide range of riding conditions.

An innovative cross panel sail (XPS) design provides an outstanding level of connection when riding. This futuristic panel layout greatly reduces sail distortion by improving load distribution and frame rigidity. This gives all the wing sizes a very direct and controlled feel for easy and comfortable flying. Removable carbon fibre battens minimise trailing edge flutter and provide easy canopy tuning for varying wind strengths.

The XPS’s airfoil section combined with our pre-twist tip geometry produces incredible speed with sublime upwind performance. This greatly benefits jump amplitude for freestyle manoeuvres and delivers plenty of hang time and float for smooth landings. This wing is also a wave rider’s dream with little to no luffing or sail flutter and excellent stability, allowing the rider to focus less on the wing and more on shredding the wave.

A newly developed hybrid carbon handle (HCH) design has a rigid carbon interior skeleton and soft padded exterior. This combination offers the best balance of control, comfort and safety.

We tested hundreds of individual materials during the development of the XPS. We settled on the new generation high quality lightweight Dacron, tried and tested polyester Dacron and Ultra PE woven laminate (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) for key reinforcements. The result is a highly refined combination of materials which delivers impressive strength to weight, durability and overall performance.
