2023 REAL Armstrong Foil Clinic: Mid Aspect Range

Armie Armstrong came to visit the REAL Lesson Center all the way from New Zealand to give our REAL Pros an in-depth Foil Clinic and tech talk. In this first part, we discuss the Mid-Aspect line including the development and benefits for riders.

I was so impressed and respectful of the design and engineering that I sold my Moses setup and purchased all new Armstrong gear the day after this tech talk. I have never been so excited to foil. First impression is that the Armstrong products are AMAZING. Everything from the bag that the foil package comes in to the assembly and hardware are aerospace quality with NO flaws of any kind. Then there is the foil performance. I purchased the HS series and first ride was a very very connected feeling to the foil and its easy to feel the efficiency of the wings under water. Smooth, carving, slow and fast speed are exceptional. Thank you again Real Watersports for everything that you do.

Hello, I have a Naish Hover S26 85 liter board. How do you think the Armstrong MA1225 will work with this board?
Will the mast have to be located well in front of the rail?

Only downside for me is, compared to other brands. You have to completely unscrew the whole foil to fit it in your car. And everytime have to set it up again. With my North foils, i unscrew 2 screws and leave the whole foil intact. 2 minutes and i'm ready to go.

In the CS larger range, how much difference is the V1 (affordable) to the new V2?

I have a HA1350 which I am having a hard time riding. Will chopping off the wing tips make it easier to ride? if so how much of the wing tip can I chop off with out ruining the wing?
