Armstrong Wing FG Foilboard - 34L-58L

This is the best wing board on the market. The new deck pad contours well and makes it easier to control the board while on foil. It tracks well for increased stability on take offs and will carry speed more efficiently. I weigh 185lbs and the 48L & 58L boards are very easy to start on and without footstraps if powered. If underpowered I prefer having foot straps and riding the 58L over the other sizes. If you can pump up on foil already then jumping down to the 34L or 40L board with foot straps will be the better option for you. This board also paddles well in the surf for prone foiling and I recommend sizing it 5L above your surfboard for easier paddling in mushy surf. If you want one board that can do it all for foiling look no further!

The new Armstrong FG is better in almost every way and improves upon the early version of this board by feeling lighter while you are riding, peeling off the water easier and being more stable on the surface of the water even on the new narrow platform. They must have learned a lot with the development of the DW board because it is really fast on the surface of the water. The chines seem a little taller on each side, offsetting any stability issues you would get with a more narrow board. I really like the new deck pad system. The raised edges help your knees balance the board a little easier but may be tricky for guys who have a bit of a cross step stance. As always, having the forward geometry track is a boon to those who are using this board with an Armstrong foil setup. This is the finest wing board that money can buy by a long shot.

This new Wing FG board is a huge leap forward in performance and innovation.
I’ve had a couple sessions on the 4’6” at 48L and one session on the 4’4” at 40L. For the past year, I’ve been riding the 4’8” original FG board at 50L or a KT Ginzu 4’8” at 54L.
The 4’4” was fun but just a bit too small while the new 4’6” is absolutely perfect. It’s a bit less stable to initially get going than the 50L – the time when you are on your knees, trying to grab the wing is more challenging but as soon as you get the wing and get any power or any forward momentum the board is ready to jump up and go. It’s wildly better in terms of getting up on foil than ANY other board I’ve tried. It jumps back up on foil after a touch down and doesn’t seem to have any “stickiness” on the water.
I primarily wing in the ocean, riding waves and the performance is superior to anything else I’ve ridden. The 48L board feels small and maneuverable like my 34L prone surf foil board – in fact, they are very close in size (4’5” on the prone and 4’6” on the wing board.)
I love that I can get my arm around it to carry it down the beach or handle it in the shore break.
I’ve been riding it with straps. The new pad feels great and the new bag is sturdy and offers a bit of sun protection which is really nice.
I’ve been on this epic wing foil journey for about three years, would consider myself an advanced rider who prefers to be in the ocean and I weigh 160lbs.

The 80L has easier lift off even compared with my 88L board which has higher volume. There is a lot to like about this new shape. It is just a touch squirrelier getting started but not bad at all and was an easy switch over for me.

The new Wing FG maintains board speed great on touchdowns like during imperfect foot switches.. pops right back up onto foil.. loved that!!

Overall I found it easier to get going, ride and turn than the previous version. Love the new pad too.

I loved the 80L new Wing FG board.

Absolutely an upgrade with immediate difference in ease of take off. Minimal need to pump board to get going. It just glides off the water. The narrow width effect on stability is not really noticeable compared to my previous version 75L. On touchdowns it just bounces back on to foil instead of create drag and sticking.

When on foil, I found it to be sportier than my 75L. Overall obvious and desirable upgrade to 75L Wing Sup FG.
