THE ESSENCE OF FOILING
Combining rippability, easy pumping and endless glide.
Building on the legacy of our first HA (high aspect) foils initially released in 2021, the new HA range offers an unprecedented combination of rippability, easy pumping and endless glide that expands the potential of intermediate to expert surf, downwind and wing foilers. Seven sizes - 580, 680, 780, 880, 980, 1080, 1180cm2 - deliver a full quiver of options. The new HA range is the essence of foiling.

STAND OUT PERFORMANCE
A newly developed section shape, outline and profile give the HA range a remarkable “best of both worlds” ability to carve beautiful lines and easily stay high in the pumping power zone for maximum wave riding potential.
The foil section is adjusted incrementally at points across the wingspan (evolutive section shape) to provide a big boost to gliding efficiency and consistent lift at various bank angles and flight speeds. Riders are enabled to stay up high in the pumping power zone and experience an amazing carving feel for ultimate wave riding satisfaction.
PERFORMANCE PEDIGREE
Meticulously engineered to push your fun on the water.
The HA range benefits from two years’ worth of research with a leading CFD team in the hydrofoil sailboat world. These foils turn beautifully and their section is optimised to stay with the wave allowing smooth flowing connections between swell lines. Excellent lift means riders can drop down one full size from their previous HA foils for improved carving and speed range while maintaining an easy low end.
TOP TIER CONSTRUCTION
Built for progression.
High aspect foils experience extreme torsional forces in the water, especially when carving. We’ve crafted the HA range from premium Toray high and intermediate modulus carbon fibre for an ultra strong, stiff and lightweight foil that performs exceptionally under the feet of intermediate to expert riders. The consistency of this layup when combined with our industry-leading manufacturing quality provides the best in performance and durability.

Dedicated to surf, tailored to rip.
Waves are a blank canvas, and the new Surf foil board is the refined tool of choice to draw your line. This 100% surf-dedicated shape is highly responsive and easy to paddle whether you’re building skills or already a ripper. The outline is tuned to be stable under the chest when popping up, yet ready to lay into next-level carves and bash whitewater at will. Optimized to give you a direct connection to the foil, the Surf is thin per volume and built stiff to respond instantly under your feet. Six sizes from 3’11" (20L) to 4’11 (48L) take the next-gen foil surfing fun to riders across weights and skill levels.
True to its surf-inspired name, the new Midlength board range truly redefines when and how you can go foiling. It's the ace up your sleeve, the session saver, hell, it's a fast-paddling, rippable flight time booster that's your new superpower. It gives you the freedom to define how you ride. The choice is yours.
FROM THE SHAPING BAY
Outline: The Surf is a ground-up fresh outline from our prior surf-oriented boards. Its outline is surfboard inspired, particularly in the full nose where that extra foam boosts paddling comfort by supporting the chest. The rails gradually pull down into a squared off tail that provides ample width for quick foot placement in critical drops. The width in each size balances stability with rippability when on a rail for an outline that is user friendly yet thoroughly high- performance.
Rocker and rails: The rocker line is generally flat with a slight kick in the nose for easy, efficient paddling. A flat deck and full rails provide a volume distribution throughout the board that enables reduced thickness in each size. Being thin and stiff creates a much more direct sensation of the foil itself, boosting the rider’s connection to the wave.
Bottom: This board was designed to be ridden on the water in line with the most progressive surf foiling style. Its subtle double concave to v-tail bottom contours promote efficient water flow and minimizes sticktion to the water surface, benefitting learners and experts smashing the foam ball alike. Unlike our Forward Geometry boards, the Surf’s carbon foil tracks are located more aft to achieve a balanced mast placement due to the shorter board length.
More Grip.
More Control.
Redefine your footwork.
The Surf’s deck grip is tailored specifically to provide maximum control and comfort to enable your style in the surf. Similar in feel to the deck grip on our other boards, this design features unique micro-cutouts through the main section of the grip that are grippy enough to feel securely locked in for critical strapless maneuvers but are still flat enough easy foot repositioning throughout your ride. A full width kick pad at the rear sports extra traction and markings to indicate the foil track placement underneath. Holes in the deck grip facilitate easy access to footstrap screw inseerts.
Proven Construction
Maximum structural rigidity creates a sublime feel underfoot.
The ultra stiff double skin PVC sandwich combined with Armstrong’s reputed i-beam top to bottom dual stringers provides maximum structural rigidity and durability. Proprietary carbon fiber foil tracks are keyed directly into the string fibers for a fully integrated construction. Key Features
