Features
Maximum glide Aspect ratio (AR) 13.0-13.55
Ultra-premium construction Made from Toray intermediate and high modulus carbon fibre
Stable at speed A thin section and subtle anhedral to dihedral shape becomes more pitch and roll stable at higher speeds without feeling locked in.
Evolutive section profile The foil section is slightly different at each station across the foil span for maximum efficiency.
The A+ System
The A+ System is ARMSTRONGS proprietary foil assembly design that joins the mast, fuselage, front foil and stabiliser together for a solid and smooth feeling on the water. A hexagonal carbon fibre fuselage with a titanium rod core has progressive flex qualities that balance stiffness with a uniquely smooth feel underfoot.
This design minimises flex from the extreme torsional forces produced by the foil’s front wing and stabiliser. Premium 316 steel and titanium hardware virtually eliminates corrosion and provides a naturally snug fit. On the stabiliser, Polycarbonate Pro Shims allow for half degree incremental changes to pitch for incredibly easy tuning of the foil’s flight characteristics.
