ARMSTRONG FOILS
BETTER BY DESIGN + BUILT STRONG + BUILT TO LAST
In this video, Matt Nuzzo takes the Armstrong MA 990 MKII, Sunova Foil Board and his Foil Drive to the south side to give the wing a test in some choppy conditions. Is this the perfect foil to combo with Foil Drive?
Key features and benefits discussed include:
Speed Range: The foil offers a wide speed range, with a low stall speed for easy lift-off and stability at higher speeds, preventing it from lifting out of the water
Sizing Recommendations: The 990 is Matt's preferred foil for his 170-pound weight, while the 890 is suitable for pumping, and the 790 for smaller or more advanced riders. The 1190 is recommended as a versatile option for most riders, and the 1390 for heavier foilers.
Comparison to other foils: The MA MKII is compared to the S1 (entry-level, super balanced) and the HA (great glide, good turning, but a top-end speed limit). The MA MK2 offers a balance of stability and glide, making it suitable for beginners and advanced riders alike.
Performance in choppy conditions: The foil is very stable in choppy conditions, allowing for smooth gliding and easy turning.
