Armstrong HS 625

THE HIGH SPEED 625 WITH ITS FOIL TIPS IS FAST AND ULTRA SMOOTH THROUGH THE WATER. SPEED AND STABILITY ALLOWS YOU TO CARVE WITH CONFIDENCE EITHER WITH KITE POWER OR RIDING BIG WAVES AND SWELLS.

Armstrong HS 850

SPEED IS EVERYTHING WITH CONTROL, THE NEW HS850 DELIVERS BOTH! 
Sleek and sexy lines let you know that this Foil is sporty and refined at the same time. This relatively small Foil has a huge range, it handles high speeds easily and has enough glide and lift to pump.

This is a sick Foil for solid surf, Kiting and wing foiling… The combination of its performance attributes give it range and that range makes it versatile. Developed with Kiwi powerhouse Bevan Gooch who is known for ripping in big surf, he reckons the only limitation of this wing is how far the rider dare push it!

Sweet handling and pitch control are signature features of that unique Armstrong feeling, the HS850 is another sublime addition to the HS range of Foils

Armstrong HS 1550

The 1550 was our first HS Foil and it has proven to be a total success and loved by riders all over the world. The V2 builds on that pedigree with good injection of performance and subtle refinements to its handling.

The aspect ratio has been increased, the thickness of the section decreased and the planform reworked for an all-round improved package!

Faster, smoother, more agile, better pump and progressive in pitch make it simply more exciting to ride. In keeping with the rest of our HS Foils, the V2 1550 has a huge range and is designed for maxing small wave potential.  It’s a wicked choice for SUP and Wing Foil because of its great range, power and glide for its size.

My board made it ...

But no foot straps, fins, or vent plug?

Look closely through the packaging. Fins, foot straps and vent plugs are often concealed in a sheath of cardboard that's easy to discard. Also, check inside the board box, and shake the box to be sure. You'll likely dislodge a small box containing the missing items.
