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.
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
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
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
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
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.
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.
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.

Waves are a blank canvas, and the new Surf foil board is the refined tool of choice to draw your line. This 100% surf-dedicated shape is highly responsive and easy to paddle whether youre building skills or already a ripper. The outline is tuned to be stable under the chest when popping up, yet ready to lay into next-level carves and bash whitewater at will. Optimized to give you a direct connection to the foil, the Surf is thin per volume and built stiff to respond instantly under your feet. Six sizes from 311″ (20L) to 411 (48L) take the next-gen foil surfing fun to riders across weights and skill levels.
True to its surf-inspired name, the new Midlength board range truly redefines when and how you can go foiling. It’s the ace up your sleeve, the session saver, hell, it’s a fast-paddling, rippable flight time booster that’s your new superpower. It gives you the freedom to define how you ride. The choice is yours.
Outline: The Surf is a ground-up fresh outline from our prior surf-oriented boards. Its outline is surfboard inspired, particularly in the full nose where that extra foam boosts paddling comfort by supporting the chest. The rails gradually pull down into a squared off tail that provides ample width for quick foot placement in critical drops. The width in each size balances stability with rippability when on a rail for an outline that is user friendly yet thoroughly high- performance.
Rocker and rails: The rocker line is generally flat with a slight kick in the nose for easy, efficient paddling. A flat deck and full rails provide a volume distribution throughout the board that enables reduced thickness in each size. Being thin and stiff creates a much more direct sensation of the foil itself, boosting the riders connection to the wave.
Bottom: This board was designed to be ridden on the water in line with the most progressive surf foiling style. Its subtle double concave to v-tail bottom contours promote efficient water flow and minimizes sticktion to the water surface, benefitting learners and experts smashing the foam ball alike. Unlike our Forward Geometry boards, the Surfs carbon foil tracks are located more aft to achieve a balanced mast placement due to the shorter board length.
Redefine your footwork.
The Surfs deck grip is tailored specifically to provide maximum control and comfort to enable your style in the surf. Similar in feel to the deck grip on our other boards, this design features unique micro-cutouts through the main section of the grip that are grippy enough to feel securely locked in for critical strapless maneuvers but are still flat enough easy foot repositioning throughout your ride. A full width kick pad at the rear sports extra traction and markings to indicate the foil track placement underneath. Holes in the deck grip facilitate easy access to footstrap screw inseerts.
Maximum structural rigidity creates a sublime feel underfoot.
The ultra stiff double skin PVC sandwich combined with Armstrongs reputed i-beam top to bottom dual stringers provides maximum structural rigidity and durability. Proprietary carbon fiber foil tracks are keyed directly into the string fibers for a fully integrated construction. Key Features

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:
