This is a sick wing for solid surf, Kiting and wing foiling… The combination of its performance attributes give it range and that range makes it versatile. Developed with Kiwi powerhouse Bevan Gooch who is known for ripping in big surf, he reckons the only limitation of this wing is how far the rider dare push it!

MAST LENGTHS

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:

• 45cm - Ideal for learning or very shallow water, reef and sandbar riding.
• 60cm - Shallow water and reef foiling where hitting the bottom might be an issue. Also a good choice for easy learning all foil sports. 
• 72cm - The go to Foil Surf mast. An easy all rounder for all foil sports
• 85cm - The 'do everything mast' : Intermediate/Advanced. SUP, Downwind, Kite, Wake, and Tow in Surfing
• 93cm - In-between the 85 and largest 100cm masts. For those on the edge.
• 100cm - This is the choice for experienced Kite, Tow in Surfing and big wave charging.

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, maximising 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 (standard provided) - 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.

If you require a fuselage other than standard please cContact us for custom package orders.
