Armstrong uses a proprietary mast and fuselage connection system, so their foils are not directly compatible with other brands.

The ideal setup depends on your skill level and riding style. Beginners benefit from medium aspect wings for stability, freeride and cruising riders prefer high aspect wings for efficiency and glide, surf foilers often choose low or mid-aspect wings for maneuverability, and downwind riders typically use high aspect wings for maximum glide and speed.

Armstrong foils are primarily made from carbon fiber for lightweight strength and stiffness, titanium hardware for corrosion resistance and durability, and precision-molded composite materials for optimal hydrodynamics and structural integrity.

While Armstrong foils are designed for high performance, they also offer beginner-friendly options. Medium aspect wings provide stability and lift at lower speeds, making them ideal for learning, and the modular system allows riders to start with a forgiving setup and upgrade over time.

Armstrong foils are designed for multiple disciplines including surf foiling, wing foiling, kite foiling, tow foiling, SUP foiling, and downwind foiling.

The signature striped design serves both functional and aesthetic purposes, improving visibility while reinforcing Armstrong’s distinctive identity.

Armstrong foils stand out due to high-end construction using carbon and titanium for a superior strength-to-weight ratio, a modular system that allows riders to swap components for different disciplines, durability with corrosion-resistant materials built for harsh saltwater use, and performance that delivers stability, maneuverability, and efficiency across conditions.

Armstrong foils are designed in New Zealand and manufactured using advanced composite materials to ensure strength, lightness, and performance. The brand is known for meticulous engineering and high production standards.
