DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Comfort and Grip
The circular carbon core is wrapped in a textured EVA coating, ensuring you maintain a firm grip even after hours on the water. This combination reduces arm vibration and limits fatigue during long sessions. You'll also notice improved pressure distribution on your hand, which is crucial for refining your placement during power delivery or tight maneuvers.
Attachment System
The ARMSTRONG CARBON BOOM features the Dyna-Link system for tool-free setup: it simply clips onto the Dyneema loops on the deflated strut. Once the wing is inflated, the connection remains solid and secure. We love the simplicity at the water's edge, as it saves you setup time and lets you quickly swap booms if needed.
Construction and materials
Built around a carbon core, this boom prioritizes feedback and lightness. The circular core enhances torsional stiffness without adding weight to your setup. The textured EVA coating improves grip and wear resistance. These elements reflect the same high construction standards found on Armstrong foils, ensuring durability suitable for regular use.
On-water behaviour
On the water, the boom delivers a responsive and direct feel, allowing you to better sense the wing's balance for precise pumping and power delivery. Its controlled stiffness limits unnecessary twisting, which is a huge advantage during accelerations or quick transitions. For those seeking increased precision in wing control, the feedback from the carbon core is sensitive and consistent.
Sizes and choice
Armstrong offers three lengths to cover a wide range of wings: S for 2.0-3.0 m², M for 3.5-4.0 m², and L for 4.5-8.0 m². We recommend choosing the size based on your wing's surface area to maintain a balanced feel and a comfortable grip. If you ride multiple wing sizes, select the one that best matches the wing you ride most often.
Who it's for and Buying advice
The ARMSTRONG CARBON BOOM is designed for riders who want to improve their control precision on the A-Wing XPS Mk 2. We recommend this boom if you regularly wingfoil and want a quick setup without compromising on feel. In-store, we can advise you on the size based on your wing and body size; bring your wing if you're hesitant between two sizes.
