Hi Gavin, as always your videos are a fantastic resource. Well done! I’d consider buying an Armstrong dw board but I’m using f-one foils. Just wondered what your thoughts were on their compatibility. Cheers

Hi Paul, thanks for the kind words. Much appreciated. I’ve not used F-one with the DWP but I have a friend who does and loves it. He uses the Eagle 990 for downing with the DWP board (108 x 8’11). Hope that helps.

I believe you said you tried the North DW front wings (and related stabs) Will you be doing a video review of those like you did with the SF? Or are you a bit tied up now with Armie goodies? Get better soon! & Thanks for all the great and valuable content!

@hydrofoilacademy Месяц назад

Thanks for the kind words! Yes, I will definitely be doing a full review of the North DW gear. Frustratingly, my ones are still some time away but as soon as I have them I’ll do a review.

i really like armstrong gear the only issue It's yearly recurring costly purchase. at least with the amount of new gear they put on the market recently it's has been and i cant keep up so i sold at least tried to sold what i had.

@hydrofoilacademy 2 месяца назад

You’re not the first person I’ve heard say that. It’s a very difficult situation where some want the latest technology and newest trends. I agree, there have been a lot products recently but that’s true across most brands. I think the industry will slow down in the coming years, it’s still such a new sport they are finding their feet still. Anyway, I hope you have found another good brand and getting on the water lots 🤙

Hi I new in dw. 90-95kg I want to use board for lw wing and to learn the downwind. I tought about the 128l but somebody said the 140 will be better for me. what do you think ? Thanks

@hydrofoilacademy 2 месяца назад

It’s always a difficult one to answer as it depends on how much time you are willing to put in, how quickly you pick things up, etc etc. If I was 95kg I would have gone with the 128l, especially if you want to wing too.

When switching from the gen1 Armstrong DW board to this, do you recommend the same liters or should you go bigger or smaller due to it's stability or glide? Thx

@Alfonso_111 2 месяца назад

Get a KT. They are equivalent to gen 3 armstrong!

@hydrofoilacademy 2 месяца назад

I think the length is one of the most important factors. As the new boards (standard DW boards, not talking about the DWP boards) are longer you can get away with slightly less volume. So for the old 121L you could get the new 116L and the old 108L the 106L.

@benclark4865 2 месяца назад

⁠@@Alfonso_111but the Armstrong pro are much higher aspect then the KT, no? How can they be equivalent?

@hydrofoilacademy 2 месяца назад

I had a KT for several months and I agree they are very good boards and probably higher performance than the standard Armie DW board. However, the Armie DWP is next level in my opinion, but each to their own.

@DownwindFrother 2 месяца назад

I'm a 73kg intermediate downwinder and it sounds like I'm at a very similar stage to yourself on the dw journey. The 8'2, 98L is very tempting for me. Do you reckon I would be ok with that volume? Another way to ask the question is how do you feel about the volume of your 8'11 at 80kg? Thanks a million. Donating now 😊
