The HA front foil range offers an unprecedented combination of rippability, easy pumping, and endless glide that’s taken the foiling world by storm.
The new HA480 expands the potential of this foil range even further by increasing top end speed and rippability while maintaining the HA’s characteristic user-friendly bottom end.
The 480 caters to powered up winging and tow surf foiling in situations where the rider needs more speed and efficiency to chase down stretched out swell lines. Ultralight rippers with. advanced pumping skills may also find the HA480 ideal to extract the most from their prone surf foiling sessions.
Features
Executive Section Shape: The section shape is tweaked at various stations across the span for hyper-optimized water flow across the wing.
Toray Carbon Fiber: Built from premium Toray high and intermediate modulus carbon fiber for strength and light weight.
Armstrong A+ System: Our proprietary connection system offers industry-leading stiffness, durability and modularity.
Flat Profile: Enables responsive turning in carved, even at wider wingspans.
Stand Out Performance
A newly developed section shape, outline and profile give the HA range a remarkable “best of both worlds” ability to carve beautiful lines and easily stay high in the pumping power zone for maximum wave riding potential.
The foil section is adjusted incrementally at points across the wingspan (evolutive section shape) to provide a big boost to gliding efficiency and consistent lift at various bank angles and flight speeds. Riders are enabled to stay up high in the pumping power zone and experience an amazing carving feel for ultimate wave riding satisfaction.
Top Tier ConstructionBuilt for progression.
High aspect foils experience extreme torsional forces in the water, especially when carving. Armstrong crafted the HA range from premium Toray high and intermediate modulus carbon fiber for an ultra strong, stiff, and lightweight foil that performs exceptionally under the feet of intermediate to expert riders. The consistency of this layup when combined with Armstrong’s industry-leading manufacturing quality provides the best in performance and durability.
