Armstrong Midlength FG Foilboard

The Midlength isn't just a board; it's a mindset.

 

In a world overwhelmed with choices, it embraces the unconventional idea that less can be more. True to its surf-inspired origins, the Midlength board range redefines how and when you can foil. It's your secret weapon, a session saver, and a fast-paddling, versatile ride that enhances your flight time—your new superpower. It lets you determine how you ride. The choice is yours.

 

Available in five sizes, from 5'1" (45L) to 6'5" (85L).

 

We've found the perfect balance—a true sweet spot.

Fitting between our Prone, Wing, and Downwind boards, the Midlength is a lifesaver on small or light days with excellent paddle power and an easy lift onto the foil. Its speed and efficiency also give you confidence in bigger surf; the Midlength paddles like a big wave board but transitions into a shortboard feel once airborne. Forget about finding the perfect board—just hit the water and let the Midlength disappear as you focus on the ride.

With an ideal blend of dimensions and volume, the Midlength offers optimal glide, stability, and maneuverability, making it easy for anyone to increase their time on foil.

 

From the Shaping Bay

  • Outline: The board features a pointed yet soft nose, a gently tapered midsection, and a pulled-in tail, making it an efficient glider for prone paddling in both small and large surf. This glide also translates well for winging, making the Midlength an excellent light wind machine that lifts off the water effortlessly, similar to a Downwind board.

  • Rocker and Rails: The board has a progressive rocker from the nose to the foil tracks, keeping it lively in the pocket and aiding in easy touchdown recovery. The tail kick helps with pumping and ensures a clean launch. The rails are soft at the front, transitioning into harder lines at the back for efficient flow and responsive tracking on the water.

  • Bottom Contours: Inspired by Downwind boards, the Midlength features a subtle double concave at the nose that flattens at the foil tracks and transitions into a diamond-V tail, providing a quick lift and minimal resistance during touchdowns. If any board wanted to stay airborne, this one would.

 

More Grip, More Control, More Soul – Redefine Your Footwork

The Midlength's deck grip, inspired by our Wing FG and DW foilboards, is specifically designed to maximize control and comfort, enhancing your style across different foil sports. The flat deck, paired with raised arch bars above the foil tracks and elevated wedges at the rear, allows for intuitive and unrestricted foot placement, whether you're carving a wave or experimenting with your stance while winging.

Proven Construction – Unmatched Structural Rigidity

The ultra-stiff double-skin carbon PVC sandwich, combined with Armstrong’s renowned I-beam dual stringers, ensures maximum structural rigidity and durability. The proprietary carbon fiber foil tracks are integrated directly into the stringer fibers, resulting in a fully unified construction.
