THE ESSENCE OF FOILING

Combining rippability, easy pumping and endless glide.

Building on the legacy of our first HA (high aspect) foils initially released in 2021, the new HA range offers an unprecedented combination of rippability, easy pumping and endless glide that expands the potential of intermediate to expert surf, downwind and wing foilers. Seven sizes – 580, 680, 780, 880, 980, 1080, 1180cm2 – deliver a full quiver of options. The new HA range is the essence of foiling.

Compare All Sizes:

HA1180

Wing – Downwind – Surf Foil – Dock Start

The do-it-all wing that intermediate foilers will love. Tailored more for heavier riders, this wing is designed to perform in all disciplines.

Span: 1066mm | AR: 9.63
Weight: 2.45lb/1.11kg

HA1080

Wing – Downwind – Surf Foil – Dock Start

Everyone’s hero foil for small days. This is the first HA front wing for most people and allows a wide range of skill abilities to get out on the water.

Span: 1020mm | AR: 9.63
Weight: 2.40lb/1.08kg

HA980

Wing – Surf Foil

The all-around foil for lighter weight riders riding at an intermediate level. For heavier weight riders (above 200lb), this wing is your performance surfoil or winging front wing.

Span: 974mm | AR: 9.68
Weight: 2.15lb/0.97kg

HA880

Wing – Surf Foil

The magic size of the line-up. It boasts an exceptional amount of glide and rippability for all disciplines. Imagine the MA1000 and the HA925 having a baby with a lower bottom end – that’s the HA880.

Span: 923mm | AR: 9.68
Weight: 1.95lb/0.88kg

HA780

Wing – Surf Foil

A performance surf foil and winging front wing for medium weight riders. Intermediate to advanced surf foilers will enjoy this wing in mid size waves, or when conditions call for more drive and speed down the line.

Span: 870mm | AR: 9.70

HA680

Wing – Tow – Surf Foil

This is a light rider’s high-performance winging, surf foiling, and towing dream front wing. Expert level surf foilers looking to connect with big waves while still enjoying a low stall speed and maneuverability will find the answer in the HA680.

Span: 818mm | AR: 9.80

HA580

Wing – Tow

This wing is designed to push experienced riders’ limits as far as possible. Experienced riders will enjoy this size for both wing foiling and towing.

STAND OUT PERFORMANCE

A newly developed section shape, outline and profile give the HA range a remarkable best of both worlds ability to carve beautiful lines and easily stay high in the pumping power zone for maximum wave riding potential.

The foil section is adjusted incrementally at points across the wingspan (evolutive section shape) to provide a big boost to gliding efficiency and consistent lift at various bank angles and flight speeds. Riders are enabled to stay up high in the pumping power zone and experience an amazing carving feel for ultimate wave riding satisfaction.

PERFORMANCE PEDIGREE

Meticulously engineered to push your fun on the water.

The HA range benefits from two years worth of research with a leading CFD team in the hydrofoil sailboat world. These foils turn beautifully and their section is optimised to stay with the wave allowing smooth flowing connections between swell lines. Excellent lift means riders can drop down one full size from their previous HA foils for improved carving and speed range while maintaining an easy low end.

TOP TIER CONSTRUCTION

Built for progression.

High aspect foils experience extreme torsional forces in the water, especially when carving. Weve crafted the HA range from premium Toray high and intermediate modulus carbon fibre for an ultra strong, stiff and lightweight foil that performs exceptionally under the feet of intermediate to expert riders. The consistency of this layup when combined with our industry-leading manufacturing quality provides the best in performance and durability.

A+ System Carbon Mast

Our new A+System is taking strength and durability into the future! See this link for full details.

OUR V2 FULLY TAPERED ONE PIECE MASTS ARE ULTRA SOLID AT THE TOP AND SLICK THROUGH THE WATER DOWN BELOW.

The unique quad c beam core layup delivers a mast with smooth consistent reactive flex, generating sweet handling response and better stability by smoothing out bumps and flexing precisely to drive you through turns.

The V2 masts also feature bombproof zero corrosion Bi Directional Titanium Washer and Titanium T Nut system, which creates a rock solid connection between mast and board.

The V2 mast construction and shape combine to make a mast that will deliver predictably every time.

Mast Length Guide

Choosing the right length mast is important depending on your ability and intended use.

• 72cm /28.5″ The go to Foil Surf mast. An easy all rounder for all foil sports.
• 85cm /33.5″ The ‘do everything mast’ : Intermediate/Advanced. SUP, Downwind, Kite, Wake, and Tow in Surfing.

Mast construction details

• Our unique mast construction was developed in conjunction with composite experts who worked on Team New Zealand Americas Cup foils.
• The quad C beam mast core delivers dynamic reactive flex that equates to better strength, stability and control without compromising weight.
• The mast layup is futuristic: at the heart is a multi-piece core that gets wrapped with carbon that has optimised fiber orientation to maximise the potential of the materials. 100% Carbon cloth outer shell ensures a part that is robust and will last.

A+ System Performance Carbon Mast

The Performance Mast range is a clean-sheet design that takes the Armstrong feeling riders know and love to new heights. Sophisticated engineering and top shelf Toray high modulus carbon give these masts a unique combination of efficiency, stiffness and control at speed.

Collaborating with a team of Americas Cup foil engineers, we set out to develop a high performance mast to take us into the future. Our design goal called for a unique blend of strength, stiffness, drag and light weight. Combining CFD analysis with expert insight allowed us 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. New proprietary titanium M7 mast top hardware follows suit with a strong and lightweight 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 foils 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 weve placed specifically into the top of the Performance Mast shape provides three main benefits by adjusting the board relative to the foil underwater:

Features

• 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 theres 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.
