Our next generation foils.
MA takes everything we’ve learned from the HS, HA and CFV2 ranges and delivers a truly next-gen combination of glide, low stall speed, intuitive carving and instantaneous breach recovery. These foils offer the best of all worlds to experienced riders in every foil sport.
Fluid Carving
There’s nothing better than feeling connected to the foil through a turn, which is why we’ve designed the MA foils to deliver seamless and intuitive control through the full range of bank angles.
Lightning Fast Ventilation Recovery
From breaching a wingtip in the surf to landing an air, the MA range handles ventilation with ease. A fine leading edge section and tuned wingtip inflection allow for quick flow reattachment after a breach, making these foils the perfect platform for practising aerials or ripping the hardest turns of your foiling journey.
Stellar Glide and Acceleration
A specially tuned leading edge shape gives MA foils stellar glide and highly responsive acceleration. They’re a dream to pump when connecting wave sets, downwinding in open ocean swell, or riding way back on a boat wake.
Low End Lift and Broad Speed Range
Thanks to its high camber foil section, the MA range delivers a unique blend of lift at low speeds yet retains excellent controllability at the top end. This makes getting onto foil and pumping easier while reducing your chances of being “over foiled” in big conditions.
FRONT WINGS:
- MA625 - Incredible speed and manoeuvrability for maximum potential in powered conditions.
- MA800 - The highly rippable performance machine.
- MA1000 - The perfect blend of early lift, broad speed range and limitless carvability.
- MA1225 - The allrounder for endless glide and flow.

MASTS
V2 MASTS
Our V2 fully tapered one piece masts are ultra solid at the top and slick through the water down below.
The unique Quad C Beam Core layup delivers a mast with smooth consistent reactive flex, generating sweet handling response and better stability by smoothing out bumps and flexing precisely to drive you through turns.
The V2 masts also feature bombproof zero corrosion Bi Directional Titanium Washer and Titanium T Nut system, which creates a rock solid connection between mast and board.
The V2 mast construction and shape combine to make a mast that will deliver predictably every time.
LENGTH OPTIONS:
- 450mm - Awesome for shallow water and easy learning all foil sport.
- 600mm - Shallow water and reef foiling where hitting the bottom might be an issue. Also a good choice for easy learning all foil sports.
- 720mm - The go to Foil Surf mast. An easy all rounder for all foil sports
- 850mm - The 'do everything mast' : Intermediate/Advanced. SUP, Downwind, Kite, Wake, and Tow in Surfing
- 100mm - This is the choice for experienced Kite, Tow in Surfing and big wave charging
PERFORMANCE V3 MASTS:
The Performance Mast range is a clean-sheet design that takes the Armstrong feeling riders know and love to new heights.
Sophisticated engineering and top shelf materials give this mast a unique combination of efficiency, stiffness and control at speed.
Collaborating with a team of America’s Cup foil engineers, we set out to develop a high performance mast to take us into the future. Our design goal called for a unique blend of strength, stiffness, drag and light weight. Combining CFD analysis with expert insight allowed us to tune each section of the mast from baseplate to fuselage connection for maximum efficiency.
The result is a top of the line mast consisting of top shelf materials, new mast section, refined baseplate, reduced drag fuselage connection and new construction method. Proprietary titanium M7 mast top hardware follows suit with a strong, light and drag reducing connection to the board.
Simply put, the Performance Mast range takes the sublime Armstrong feeling further than ever.
LENGTH OPTIONS:
- 655mm - Exceptional performance for flatwater pump, shallow water riding and young rippers.
- 725mm - Highly manoeuverable for prone surf, pump, SUP surf, wake, downwind and wing.
- 795mm - Ideally balanced performance for wing, prone surf, SUP surf and downwind.
- 865mm - The do-it-all length for wing, SUP surf, tow surf, kite, high wind downwind and prone surf.
- 935mm - The advanced rider's choice for wing, tow surf and kite foiling.
- 1035mm - Confidence and control at high speeds for wing, tow and kite foiling.
MAST LENGTH GUIDE
There is no golden rule to chose your mast length. It is key to understand that the longer the mast length the more difficult it is to maintain stability, and the more extreme your wipeouts will be. It is our recommendation that whatever your sport, you start on a short or medium mast length i.e. 72cm or less.
In surfing, longer mast lengths are designed to allow extra pumping room and allow more maneuverability through turns. Whereas for kiting, a longer mast length will allow a greater upwind angle without forcing the wing out of the water. It will also allow the kiter to maintain a steady heading through larger ocean chop / waves.
ASSAULT 'SHORT MAST' OFFER:
With all complete foil purchases, we offer a 'short' mast loan service for FREE. This allows you to jump start your learning process. Its super simple to swap back your mast for your long term option once you have acquired the basic skills. Contact us to arrange.
FUSELAGE
The Armstrong Hex Fuselage is a ground breaking work of art in terms of engineering and design. The fuselage has a solid titanium core running throughout its length.
The core is then shrouded in 5mm solid wall carbon tube. The multi wing hex fitting for the mast and front wing gives 360 degree surface contact, maximizing the load distributing area.
The new TC A+System Fuselage connection is taking compatibility, strength and durability into the future.
The shorter the fuselage the less stable the foil becomes and turns become faster and tighter. The fuselage options are:
- TC50 - The TC50 allows huge maneuverability and is suited to surf rippers and advanced Kiters.
- TC60 (provided as standard) - The TC60 is the perfect blend of maneuverability and stability, ideal for intermediate riders and up!
- TC70 - The TC70 is our most popular fuselage for rookies and intermediate riders because it is smooth and forgiving.
TAIL WINGS
The following rear wings are all recommended with the MA front wings:
- SURF 205 (recommended) - The Surf 205 is a highly manoeuvrable stabiliser that enables tight and critical turns in the pocket.
- FLOW 235 (recommended) - The Flow 235’s name says it all! It’s smooth and predictable, inspiring your confidence and flow.
- HA 195 - The new HA195 tail Foil is sleek, elegant, and fast!
- DART 140 - Lightning fast response with minimal drag for high speeds, this is the tail of choice for advanced to expert wing, surf, tow and kite foilers in powered conditions.
- SPEED 180 - The 180 Speed offers greater efficiency and top end of intermediate through advanced wing, surf and downwind foilers
- GLIDE 220 - Stabiliser of choice when seeking the greatest glide and pump over long distances.
Please contact us if your preferred tail wing is available in the package selector.
CONSTRUCTION:
- The tail wing has a foam core wrapped in the highest quality Carbon keeping it light and super rigid.
- The Titanium screw inserts are in keeping with our philosophy of zero corrosion materials throughout the entire product range.
- The unique flow fences improve stability by minimizing the disruption of turbulent flow from the front wing, mast and fuselage.
