DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Stability and Control in Flight
The MA MK 2's Mid Aspect (AR 8.0) shape provides excellent longitudinal stability, particularly in pitch. On the water, this translates to a predictable feel that helps you progress, letting you link maneuvers and charge through powerful sections without any surprises. It's perfect if you want a foil that holds its line after transitions.
Takeoff and Speed Range
The new-generation profile provides nearly instant takeoff and a wide speed range. You'll quickly find the lift needed to get on foil, and can then accelerate without losing control, making the MA MK 2 versatile at both low and high speeds.
Precise Carving and Ride Feel
With an optimized wingspan, each size offers a responsive roll and sharp carving. In powered-up turns, the front wing follows your intended line, creating a natural connection between your input and the foil's response, whether in surf foil or wingfoil.
Construction and Durability
The high-modulus Toray carbon fiber construction ensures a lightweight, stiff, and durable wing. This gives it a rigid feel that directly translates your inputs and stands up to the demands of intense sessions, for consistent performance time after time.
Versatility
The MA MK 2 works exceptionally well for wingfoil, prone foil, kitefoil, or tow-in. Its compatibility with Armstrong A+ and Alloy systems makes it easy to mix and match within your Armstrong quiver, delivering the same high-quality carving and pumping across different riding styles.
Ride Feel for Progression
For riders looking to progress in wingfoil or push their carving, this front wing provides direct feedback and inspires confidence on the foil. We recommend choosing the size that matches your weight and riding style to get the most out of it.
