Armstrong S1 Foil Kit Complete With Launch Board

Armstrong Step One Foil Kit Complete With Liquid Force Launch

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.

Liquid Force Launch Foil Board 

Built with the first time foiler in mind! This all new 4'5" compression molded board features a large planning surface and a thinner cross section similar to a wakeboard. This gives way to easy board management and smooth deep water starts. The overall width of the board, flat tail rocker, chine rails, and wide shovel nose all help in the process of learning how the foil reacts while riding at a slower speed. The foil track mounting system gives 4" of travel to adjust the foil depending on rider weight and skill level. Four insert positions allow for foot straps to aide in the ease of the learning process. As it says in its name, the Launch is the perfect board to get you out of the water and into the air.
