Like the previous generation, these boards are also terrifically versatile and are excellent for lightwind winging and SUP surf foiling.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeeking greater efficiency and user friendliness in the paddle popup, each size has been lengthened by 3.5-5% to improve paddling speed and increase stability. The foil tracks are now further forward as well for increased manoeuvrability and lift. When combined with subtle refinements to the rocker line and overall shape of the tail, these boards lift off the water exceptionally cleanly and easily.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInspired by the new deck grip design on our Wing FG foilboards, the Downwind and Downwind Performance boards include a fully redesigned grip tailored specifically to provide riders with maximum control, comfort and versatility when downwinding. In conjunction with the flatter deck shape, this grip features raised central bars above the foil tracks and elevated blocks in each corner of the pad, front and back, for intuitive foot placement. Boards come with deck grips uninstalled so that riders can finish building their perfect setup.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncreased length: Greater paddling speed with improved stability and tracking for easier paddling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSplit foredeck: Inspired by our Wing FG boards, the split anhedral foredeck shape sheds water with ease.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRefined bow: Improved paddling efficiency and touchdown recovery and reduced swing weight for pumping and carving.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimal deck recess: A flatter deck to hold more volume and shed standing water more quickly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew deck grip: Like on our Wing FG board range, raised deck grip arch bars and front\/rear corner blocks provide intuitive foot placement references.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiamond V tail: All new tail shape with significantly more rocker and an extra chine to improve takeoff performance and minimise tail touchdowns when pumping and carving.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFoil track placement: Pushed further forward for increased lift and manoeuvrability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon foil tracks: Proprietary carbon fibre foil tracks are keyed directly into the fibres of the stringers for a fully integrated construction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProven construction: Deck to bottom i-beam dual stringers provide maximum structural rigidity and durability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e96L: 7’2 \/ 218cm x 19 1\/2\" \/ 49.5cm x 5 1\/2” 14cm\u003cbr\u003e106L: 7’5 \/ 226cm x 20” \/ 50.8cm x 5 3\/4” \/ 14.6cm\u003cbr\u003e116L: 7’9 \/ 236cm x 20 1\/4\" \/ 51.4cm x 5 3\/4” \/ 14.6cm\u003cbr\u003e128L: 8’1 \/ 246cm x 20 3\/4\" \/ 52.7cm x 6” \/ 15.2cm\u003cbr\u003e140L: 8’5 \/ 256cm x 21 1\/4\" \/ 54cm x 6” \/ 15.2cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eINCLUDES HIGH QUALITY BOARD BAG\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Armstrong","offers":[{"title":"96L \/ 7'2","offer_id":48201604301073,"sku":"DW96L72","price":3039.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"106L \/ 7'5","offer_id":48201604333841,"sku":"DW106L75","price":3099.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"116L \/ 7'9","offer_id":48201604366609,"sku":"DW116L79","price":3169.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"128L \/ 8'1","offer_id":48201604399377,"sku":"DW128L81","price":3239.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"140L \/ 8'5","offer_id":48201645523217,"sku":"DW140L85","price":3299.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0298\/7821\/files\/Armstrong_Foils_Downwind_Board_Multi_View.webp?v=1709683676","url":"https:\/\/kitesource.ca\/fr\/products\/armstrong-downwind-foilboard","provider":"Kitesource","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
