Someone posted the Armstrong MA range marketing add on facebook. I went to copy it over; but looks like it's been promptly deleted.
showed 800/1000/1200 all mid/low 7.x AR

Added red stripe of the performance range on one side.

looking good, some competition for Cabrinha for sure.

Anyone know why there isn't a MA1400 for heavier riders? The HS1550V2 is very average imo and such an old foil now.

Because the 1225 equates to around the 1550 - or just under which would satisfy your 1400 ideal. whilst 1000 is like the 1250 or just under - lift wise. Apparently.

@eppo you must be so stoked, you've been waiting a long time for MA wings!

Can't wait to demo these new weapons, a nail in the coffin for other brands perhaps, armie does have good quality gear

I thought they might've done a MA1400 to compete with kajura 1440 and for DW

Yeh the dock starting / DW part of the equation is still probably lacking to be honest. we will see I suppose with the new mast. Might make those HA knives actually tangible for the average rider like most of us.

been a long haul I agree

Yea I'd prefer a bigger wing for micro surf. Often on an 1850 and riding when no one else can get up. They've got a HA1525 why not on the MA side as well? It was honestly what I was hoping to put under the Christmas tree as the HA925 (already likely) fills the MA800/1000 slot for me. Can't wait to hear some reviews.

speaking with Oskar he said the 1000 kinda fits the 925/1250 but the 1225 is your 1550. We over layed the HS 1250 on the 1225 when they were over with their prototypes - and there was definitely more surface area on the 1225 MA hence why we asked


Oskar being a feather weight was always testing on the 800 for example.

First MAs being shipped very soon here in Canada. 1225 will replace my 1125 and hopefully 1850 for smaller waves. A buddy has ordered the 800 and 1000. Can't wait to demo those sizes too.
