Developed to be lighter, stronger, and more responsive, the Midlength Mk II delivers an entirely new level of durability, consistency, and connection to the foil while maintaining the intuitive handling that has made Armstrong boards a benchmark in the industry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OIjRtdhdD7g?si=4JfFPRbx_HsNUC_9\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"858\" data-start=\"449\"\u003eRefined through years of testing in New Zealand’s demanding conditions, the Midlength Mk II is designed to excel across multiple disciplines, from wingfoiling and parawing to foil assist and freeride foiling. Its efficient shape combines early takeoff performance, excellent glide, and exceptional maneuverability, making progression easier while unlocking higher levels of performance for experienced riders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1029\" data-start=\"860\"\u003eThe result is a board that feels incredibly composed underfoot, inspires confidence in all conditions, and continues to perform session after session without compromise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1549\" data-start=\"1047\"\u003eAt the heart of the Midlength Mk II is Armstrong’s new \u003cstrong data-end=\"1142\" data-start=\"1102\"\u003eX-Form precision molded construction\u003c\/strong\u003e. Developed from the ground up in Armstrong’s dedicated manufacturing facility, this technology delivers an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio while eliminating the inconsistencies often found in traditional board construction. Every board is produced using ultra-precise CNC-machined molds, ensuring perfect replication of the original shape and maintaining exact design tolerances throughout production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1912\" data-start=\"1551\"\u003eThe internal structure is equally advanced. Every component is CNC-machined before assembly, creating a highly integrated internal framework that maximizes stiffness, strength, and energy transfer. This results in a board that remains responsive and durable over time, resisting fatigue and maintaining its original performance characteristics for years of use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2224\" data-start=\"1914\"\u003eThe thinner \u003cstrong data-end=\"1944\" data-start=\"1926\"\u003eX-Form profile\u003c\/strong\u003e creates a noticeably more direct connection to the foil while reducing unwanted touchdowns. Optimized volume distribution preserves stability and balance while allowing the board to sit closer to the water, enhancing control, responsiveness, and rider feedback in all conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2669\" data-start=\"2226\"\u003eThe hull has been completely redesigned to improve hydrodynamic efficiency. A refined \u003cstrong data-end=\"2367\" data-start=\"2312\"\u003edouble concave transitioning into a subtle V-bottom\u003c\/strong\u003e generates early lift, improves acceleration, and softens touchdowns. When reconnecting with the water, the board releases cleanly rather than sticking, helping riders recover quickly and maintain momentum. Shallower chines and a flatter rear section further reduce drag and improve overall efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2939\" data-start=\"2671\"\u003eThe \u003cstrong data-end=\"2704\" data-start=\"2675\"\u003esurf-inspired squash tail\u003c\/strong\u003e increases stability during starts and positioning while improving water release and acceleration. By keeping the rails parallel further back, the tail design enhances takeoff performance and creates a more confident feeling underfoot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"3255\" data-start=\"2941\"\u003eArmstrong’s proven \u003cstrong data-end=\"2998\" data-start=\"2960\"\u003eForward Geometry foil track system\u003c\/strong\u003e remains a key feature of the Midlength Mk II. By positioning the foil further forward, the system reduces swing weight, improves responsiveness, and creates a more direct and connected feeling between rider and foil regardless of the foil brand being used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"3519\" data-start=\"3257\"\u003eA newly developed lightweight deck pad provides increased grip, improved comfort, and enhanced board control while reducing overall weight. Integrated footstrap inserts offer additional setup options for riders looking to customize their stance and riding style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"3535\" data-start=\"3521\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"thefoilshop.fr","offers":[{"title":"4'8 (38L)","offer_id":53737140617554,"sku":null,"price":2249.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5'0 (45L)","offer_id":53737140650322,"sku":null,"price":2299.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5'4 (55L)","offer_id":53737140683090,"sku":null,"price":2349.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5'8 (65L)","offer_id":53737140715858,"sku":null,"price":2399.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"6'0 (75L)","offer_id":53737140748626,"sku":null,"price":2449.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/1929\/6918\/files\/1_0aeaeb3f-1807-46ac-8efc-e2c0d240e358.png?v=1781353763","url":"https:\/\/www.thefoilshop.fr\/products\/midlength-fg-mk-ii-board","provider":"thefoilshop.fr","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
