Armstrong Foils Downwind Mk III
Following on from our review of the Ocean 95L last issue, we’ve got the 95L the Downwind Mk III to compare it with. As always with Armstrong, the finish is immaculate, and it arrived in a shiny new blue board bag, as standard. The Mk3 represents another step in the evolution of board design for foilers looking to advance their...
Armstrong Foils Downwind Ocean
Armstrong’s new Downwind Ocean range aims to refine everything riders loved about the original Downwind Performance series and package it into a sleeker, snappier, more agile board. I was pleased to be sent the smallest board in the line-up—7’8” (95L). It is 3 litres smaller and 6 inches shorter than its predecessor, the Performance 8’2. Where the Performance board relied...

Armstrong Foils MA Mk II Front Foil
When Armstrong announced the MA Mk2 was on the way, I was super keen to get my hands on it. The original MA series, particularly the MA800, were epic for winging in the waves (I was still using them until these arrived!); however, for our gutless waves on the South Coast of the UK, they lacked the pump & glide...

Armstrong Foils Alloy System
This is a welcome addition from Armstrong. While all of their equipment is brilliant, it has always come with a reasonably hefty price tag. It's worth paying if you ask me, but it's a barrier to entry. Introducing the Armstrong Alloy Foil Mast—an affordable, high-quality alternative to their carbon range that allows you to access their entire foil range! It’s...

Get involved with all things foiling from Olly Brunton!
Issue 27
Foiling is evolving faster than almost any other watersport on the planet. New disciplines appear almost yearly, gear continues to improve and riders are discovering entirely new ways to use wind and swell. But while the technology is moving quickly, the biggest shift in the sport may actually be who is getting involved. Former professional kiteboarder Sensi Graves has found herself at the centre of that change, not just as a passionate foiler, but as someone helping open the door for more women and newcomers through coaching, community events and her own journey balancing life on the water with motherhood.
Issue 27
For issue 27 of Tried and Tested, we have the new Armstrong UHA foils on test, plus the team put the latest ION Seek Select 5.5/4.5mm Hood Front Zip wetsuit through its paces in some freezing conditions. They were also testing the all-new Mystic Legacy Helmet and the Ride Engine Air Box Mini electric pump!
Issue 26
Jack Galloway is pumped on parawings this issue. Jack's a fantastic downwind foiler, whether that’s with a paddle, chipping in on a prone board or dock starting out to the bumps. The parawing is the latest tool in his box that’s allowing him even more time on the water, and helping with logistics, while also acting as a safety backup too! This is well worth a read if you are para-inclined, para-curious or para-sold…
Issue 26
When Armstrong Foils hosted its first Women’s Week in Tarifa, Olivia Sánchez joined a group of inspiring riders for a week of wind, waves, and connection. Between powerful Levante sessions and late-night laughter, she found more than just progression on the water; she found confidence, friendship, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Foiling might look like effortless flight from the outside, but every glide hides a story of crashes, wipeouts, and stubborn persistence! In this editorial, Jack Galloway talks about the mindset that sets foilers apart: the willingness to sacrifice comfort, start from scratch again and again, and embrace the “walk of shame” in pursuit of progress.
Issue 25
Big air, big style, and no holding back: that’s Austin Tovey! Known for sending it in every discipline from wake to kite to tow foiling, Austin has now poured all that experience into designing his very own board with Armstrong. In this feature, he discusses the new Austin Tovey Pro Board, what sets it apart, and the mindset and mechanics behind the jaw-dropping tricks you see in his clips.

When Sensi Graves first considered starting a family, she fully understood how it might change the adventurous, wind-driven lifestyle she loved. But being fully committed to life outdoors, Sensi has proven it’s possible to chase wind, waves, and parenthood all at once. In this feature, she shares her experiences of spending two months in La Ventana with Brandon Scheid, their son, Flint, and her brand new Armstrong gear, offering an honest look at what it’s like to blend family life with watersports in one of the world’s premier wind destinations!
Issue 24
From wild downwind SUP runs to the rise of parawing, foiling has taken off in every direction. But, in this editorial, Jack Galloway reminds us not to forget our roots. Wing foiling remains the most accessible way into the sport—and the backbone of its growth. Are we still making space for the masses, or just chasing the fringe?
Issue 24
As the days get longer and the sessions get sunnier, our UK-based Tonic Mag test team has been out chasing every breeze to put the latest gear through its paces. In this issue, we’re bringing you fresh reviews to fuel your best season yet.
