Armstrong Step One Foil Kit

Redefining how we learn to foil, the Step 1 (S1) foil range delivers remarkable stability, ultra low flying speed and an instantly intuitive feel to make the first step into foiling as accessible and forgiving as possible.
Pitch, roll and yaw stability are critical to success when building foiling skills. The S1 design achieves a near autopilot-like level of predictability thanks to a combination of leading and trailing edge sweep, chord length and foil section geometry. The result is an ultra easy platform for first time flyers to learn any foiling discipline.
The S1 foils fly at a remarkably low speed with a high degree of controllability so that riders can practise manoeuvres with less risk and a lower learning curve. When overpowered, the foil reduces breaching with a tendency to fly itself back down when approaching the surface. Because these foils handle speed and ventilation so well, riders can enjoy an exceptionally broad usable speed range in each size. Downturned wingtips provide an extra element of safety.
Built to the same tolerances as our other foils, the S1 range is constructed from carbon composites which provide an excellent strength to weight ratio.

Front Wing Options:

S1-1250: Span 848mm, Aspect Ratio 5.7

S1-1550: Span 905mm, Aspect Ratio 5.3

S1-1850: Span 965mm, Aspect Ratio 5.0

S1-2450: Span 1054mm, Aspect Ratio 4.8

Rear Wing:
S1-300: 
​The S1 300  Tail Wing is the ultimate all rounder. It incorporates the perfect amount of anhedral shape in the center and dihedral at the tips for stability and smooth pitch control at all speeds and bank angles.

Fuselage:
AAF65: 65cm

Mast:
72cm/28.5": 
The go to Foil Surf mast. An easy all rounder for all foil sports

Polycarbonate Pro Shims:
For more advanced riders wanting faster, looser setups, we have new low profile Polycarbonate Pro Shims, allowing more than 5 angle settings at 0.5 degree increments, from  –1 degree to + 1.5 degrees for the tweakers out there.

    Available Sizes: 1250cm², 1550cm², 1850cm², 2450cm²

      Features
      • An ultra easy platform for first time flyers to learn any foiling discipline. Excellent low speed lift, stability and recovery from ventilation.
      • Leading and trailing edge sweep for stability and a narrower span to minimise breaching.
      • Downturned wing tips increase rider safety and improve the efficiency of water flow.
      • Proprietary Armstrong A+ System foil connection design offers industry-leading stiffness, durability and modularity.
      • The S1 300 stabiliser was designed alongside the S1 foils to provide riders with the best learning platform possible.

      The Armstrong S1 Foil Kit includes an S1 front wing, the S1 300 rear wing, an AAF65 fuselage, a 72cm mast and polycarbonate pro shims. It is a complete foil to pair with a foil board you already own.
      The Armstrong S1 Foil Kit is built for first-time flyers learning to foil. The S1 foils fly at low speed with near autopilot stability and recover well when overpowered, so riders can practise manoeuvres across any foiling discipline with a lower learning curve.
      The Armstrong S1 Foil Kit offers four front wing sizes: 1250, 1550, 1850 and 2450 square centimetres, with spans from 848mm to 1054mm. Larger wings give more low-speed lift for heavier riders, while smaller wings suit lighter riders and higher speeds.
      Wakefoiling means riding a board fitted with a hydrofoil - a mast with wings that lifts the board clear of the water so you glide silently above the surface behind the boat, and can even ride the boat's wake without a rope. The large front wing provides lift, the smaller rear wing (stabiliser) controls pitch, and the mast connects the foil to the board. It takes some practice, but the ride is smooth and low-impact once you are flying.
