Armstrong WKT Wake Kite Tow Foilboard

The WKT 109cm is an incredibly fun board for kitefoiling. An advantage of its small size is the direct connection you feel with the foil. For my riding level it’s about as small as I would want to go with a kite foil board while still maintaining a comfortable platform for foot switches. The WKT has a ton of nose rocker to help recover during touchdowns and the beveled rails also deflect from the surface of the water super nicely. For heavier riders or new foilers, the 122 or 137cm would be much better options for learning foot switches and transitions on something more forgiving.

A great all around board for both kite foiling and tow foiling. the shape is perfect and the construction is phenomenal.

This feedback comes from an experienced kiteboarder/wingfoiler looking to get into KF. This is my first dedicated KF board. Overall, I found this to be a very high quality built board. I found it desireably very stiff and reactive, providing immediate response to rider input. I spent my first week of KF in Turks with this board set up with Armstrong 72 mast, 1050 foil, 300 tail, 60 fuse and one front strap. The board easily floated sideways on the water making getting starting easy. The decreased volume was quickly overcome with a quick kite throw to a taxi or on foil position, and the front camber allowed for frequent underwater starts along with easy recovery from touch downs during transitions. This board was very stable at high speed and quickly reactive to my input for turns. The performance characteristics were exactly as specified in the design intentions. While I usually prefer strapless surfboard riding, I only used one strap centered up front and nothing additional in the rear. I found rear foot position to be easily intuitive, falling into the concavity of the board naturally with no kickpad. Maybe I’ll add one when I get more aggressive with my turns! I foresee many years increasing my technique yet likely still not pushing the limits and capabilities of this awesome board. As always, Matt’s advice was spot on and much appreciated!

The 109 provides a high-quality, stable platform for instantaneous feedback from the foil below, making it an optimal choice for learning and progressing with Dock Starts and flat water pumping in general. The small profile makes it easy to handle in and out of the water, yet there's plenty of room to dial in your foot placement on the fly. Having some shape under the front foot allows you to feel the perfect spot, without having to look for it, and the foam grips booties or bare feet nicely.
Overall, it's a well-built ride that can fly in a lot of settings, with a lasting functionality as you progress. If you're looking for something that works for dock starts and beyond, this one is definitely worth considering.

The new Armstrong WKT Foil board is the highest premium board on the market. The performance matches the price of this board. You get everything you pay for. It's scooped nose and profile allows for effortless performance kiting or towing. If your progression has found you replacing snapped foil boards, say hello to the last board you will need to buy!
