Over the last year we've heard many of you talking about how happy you are with your Armstrong foils and boards, so it's been great to have the chance to have a go on what this passionate New Zealand brand have to offer.
We’ve had an Armstrong sweet shop of foiling gear to play with over the last month, and it’s been lots of fun! The man behind the brand, Armie Armstrong has always come across in various online videos as a straight up guy who really knows what should be happening under your feet. So we were really intrigued to see how these foils and boards really performed.
In a previous SUPboarder Pro Wing test we did test the 5.5m A Wing from Armstrong, but in this video we also got to have a go on the smaller 4.5m Wing which was a very well balanced wing that felt light and grunty for its size. But for us the magic of the range was really in the boards and foils that all seem to have one common thread between them… No matter whether you’re riding the smooth CF range, the fast HS foils or the super light boards, they’re all very easy to use regardless of their sizes and uses.
Awesome review! Thanks!! Another board to add to all the possibilities!

Is that working for you in Jibing? Also for sup foiling its generally better to put the rear strap offset of mid and the front strap offset of mid, I cant really find a way to do that as the front strap angle is… Read more »
Hi, Well it depends on what style of riding you are really doing. If you are doing alot of switch stance riding which we do because we are winging in a small creek. I find the best foot strap set up is actually having a centre offset front strap. You are correct the one in the video that we were using was the dead centre strap foot strap which also works okay. But if you are talking about gybing and switching your feet through the gybe and staying on the foil then I think having 2 foot straps at the… Read more »
