Looks fun. Was initially shopping for a 4'4 ish prone foil board but getting a 6'3 armstrong for surf foiling and sup surf foiling seems like it could be quite the quiver killer.
Hi Mick. I mostly wingfoil and sometimes sup surf in waist to chest high waves. I have a Sup Surf board FG 6.4 and a DW 7.7. I am thinking to sell one. I am thinking to keep the DW because its I might use it also in light wind winging but am afraid to use it in breaking waves close to other surfers, think that the FG 6.4 is more controlable when being washed. Thx, Ramon
Great question... those are both big boards with similar high volume. What's your weight and experience level with foiling in surf? Is your surf from an exposed break or in a protected bay...I.e how much power in the surf? Also what foil sizes are you riding?
Thanks@@Mickfoil1 My weight is 86Kg, 49 years young, confident winger (gybing, tacking, downwinding). Winging mostly on MA1000. When I sup surf its with MA1225 or MA1475. Knee to chest high waves. medium power, never go to the peak, I stay outside on the shoulder, I go maybe 30 days a year Think that with the 7.7 I can stay even more on the shoulder and having the board under control if being washed should be similar to the 6.4x31 132l , the 7.7 is longer but lillte bit lower volume 121l. Thx for advice.
yep i agree, slightly less volume on the 7'7 and plenty stable for your weight. Just stay away from others in the line up and definitely can surf far away on the shoulder.
