And the weather is not cooperating this weekend
Well I went down the rabbit hole & upgraded the whole quiver. # sails in total 3.5, 4.5 & 6.
I also grabbed the booms (of which are lighter than the handles). I found them very easy to control & flag (extremely stable) You can even go up wind with one hand. Again another product well thought out & made.
Kev, thank you for the wonderful review & feedback to help others. Stoked to hear how good these wings are working out for you. Happy winging!
Wow is just the start of it. Going from the old system & upgrading to the new system is beyond chalk & cheese. If you're thinking of upgrading you will not be disappointed.
So stoked to hear that the upgrade from the old system has exceeded your expectations. It's a pleasure to have you as a fellow foiler. Thank you for choosing Stoked On Foiling & Armstrong. Happy foiling!
Great product better than expected, fast postage and communication
This boom is 'NEXT LEVEL'... First time using a boom EVER and it's a game changer! Will be ordering the smaller version next with a smaller XPS MK II to suit it.
Stoked for you John. So good to hear that it has elevated your XPS MK II 4.5m wing experience to the 'next level.' We can't wait for you to try the smaller version with a smaller XPS MK II. Happy flying & thanks so much for the review!
David was super helpful. Plenty of after sales info.

I received my new Armstrong FD (Foil Drive) Integrated Mast 185cm Motor Position from David at Stoked on Foiling on 5th November 2025 delivered without any hiccups. I have been out riding with it most days for the past week now and I can say without any shadow of a doubt it is a vast improvement on my original Armstrong Mast set-up and FD Motor Pod clamped and tapped to my Mast. I am a heavy unit at 100kgs and immediately noticed faster speeds on take-offs getting my Pies up and planning and on foil much easy. Due to the design of the Pod/Motor position being more forward on the Mast, allowed me to move my Mast forward by about 3cm, this was a huge advantage for me as it, greatly improved less nose swing weight to my 5' 6" 59ltr Smik Stokr Middy Board, allowing me to Pump easier and carve turns more tighter on my Armstrong HA 1080 Front Wing 60cm Fuse and 180 speed tail. Another huge and noticeable improvement, was when I come of foil or do touch downs, where in the past the foil Pod/Motor would catch and drag significantly that it forced myself to shift weight and motor out hard to try and keep momentum, many times resulting in me falling off, if I did not have it dialed just right with plenty of momentum. Now that is a thing of the past with the new set-up as it doesn't catch and drag like before and is way more smooth where it's not that noticeable as I drop down on foil and I'm able to motor away with ease, hardly falling off at all coming down off foil. I am now hoping I will be able to finally step down to my HA880 Front Wing that I have, which I am about to start trying today, which I think I can with the improved take-off speed with my FD HP Motor 3 Blade Prop (Standard Max Battery set-up). I can't speak highly enough of the new Armstrong FD Integrated Mast and the impeccable First Class Service, I got from David of Stoked on Foiling.

David loaned me a smaller foil to try for a few weeks, I bought it two days later !!
Thanks Stuart for the review. Stoked the new smaller foil was perfect for your progression. Enjoy and I look foward to seeing you out on the water. Cheers, David
Great leash. I had an original kaohi prone leash, lasted me many years. Was hesitant about the double coil style but so far so good, thank you for the advice Stoked on Foiling team and the great customer service! Also love it comes in a range of colours!
Stoked to hear it's working out and nice we could hook you up with a pink one :). Thanks for the great review and here's to catching some good long foil waves.
These board look insane 😍. Thanks Dave for all your help.
Pete, it's a pleasure knowing you and stoked we could help you get this insane board. They look so good.
Dealing with David and the entire process has been fantastic. Hoping to send some more Sunny Coast business their way.

Great kit. Super well made and easy to adjust in the water. Must have addition to your setup. Thanks heaps to David for help and advice. Epic customer service from stoked on foiling. 🤙
Hey Benno, Thanks for taking the time to give us this review. Got to love these nuts hey! It was a pleasure helping you and we look forward to hearing about your progression and helping you in the future.
Using the inviz leash for parawing. The coil tends to tangle with the lines so reversed the leash. The coil is now on the deck away from the para lines and working great.
Thanks Tom for he super helpful review, especially for those that are into parawinging. Great to here its working great. We look forward to helping you out again in the future.
Excellent., exactly what I've been looking for. Twitchy but controllable. Painful jaw from winging around grinning like a idiot.😏
Love this review Allan. Thanks so much. It's crazy good isn't it. As you get more used to the 170 think about adding a blue shim or for even more speed put a red shim in there. Enjoy and thanks for your business and support.
My favourite front wing. A great all rounder. Helps me remain "Stoked on Foiling". Thanks for the great customer service!
The waste belt keeps the leg rope away from your legs
