Armstrong 1550 HS
« on: December 18, 2019, 08:28:13 AM »
Any review/ feedback on the new 1550 hs front wing with Wing Foil?
Honestly this wing ( and the all Armstrong Foil) is on my wish list.
I'm an intermediate foiler and i've heard amazing things of this foil, especially about speed and stability.
Someone can confirm these qualities? I would like to hear the experiences of the owner of this wing/ set up
Also interested in compare with the 1200 wing.
Thanks

Did a quick review here https://www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Stand-Up-Paddle/Foiling/Armstrong-HS1550 there is another foiling review out there somewhere, will try to find it.

I am 105kg the 1550HS is my go to wing for wingding above 15 knots. Below that I use the 2400. The 1550HS has more lift than the 1200 but can still handle speed. Turns really well and links bumps easily when going downwind. I would kite on the 1200 but not wingding due to the slower speeds.
