ARMSTRONG x FOIL DRIVE Integrated Carbon Mast

*Please note: Foil Drive motor and battery are NOT included with this mast.

The Armstrong x Foil Drive Integrated Carbon Mast marks a new chapter in assisted foiling performance. Designed to reduce drag and maximize efficiency, this purpose-built integrated mast system delivers smoother takeoffs, seamless acceleration, and enhanced ride control across all assisted foiling disciplines.

Two Integrated Mast Configurations (795mm Length)

Both options feature the same 795mm carbon mast length with different motor pod heights to suit your riding style and experience level. Each mast includes an integrated mini-pod design for maximum efficiency and adjustable cable length at the base plate.

Foil Assist – 185mm Motor Height
Perfect for intermediate and advanced riders looking for extra boost during takeoff and recovery. Optimized for surf foiling, downwind riding, and wave sessions.
E-Foil – 650mm Motor Height
Ideal for beginners and flatwater cruising. Designed for consistent motor submersion and smooth power delivery.

Foil Assist Integrated Carbon Mast (185mm Pod Height)

The 185mm motor pod position hits the sweet spot for most foil-assist disciplines. It offers reduced drag, balanced lift, and seamless power delivery that becomes nearly invisible once you're flying on foil.

For beginners, this means easier lift and fewer stalls. For experienced riders, it delivers uninterrupted glide performance when riding waves or bumps without sudden drag interruptions.

Why 185mm Works

The 185mm motor height is widely considered the ideal balance between efficiency and versatility. Some riders experiment with shorter or longer positions, but 185mm remains the proven "goldilocks zone" for everyday performance.

E-Foil Integrated Carbon Mast (650mm Pod Height)

The 650mm configuration is built for full-time powered riding and traditional eFoiling experiences. Cruise harbors, explore coastlines, and ride in windless conditions with smooth, predictable power delivery.

Its forward-set motor pod improves lift efficiency and reduces drag while maintaining the signature Armstrong feel and control.

650mm — Built for Full-Time Power

Purpose-built for consistent submersion, this configuration ensures reliable propulsion and smooth acceleration throughout your ride.

Key Features

Forward-Set Motor Pod

Positioned further forward than typical systems, the integrated motor pod reduces front-end drag and enhances prop efficiency. This results in smoother takeoffs, faster acceleration, and improved ride feel.

Premium Carbon Mast Performance

Built using the same design DNA as Armstrong’s industry-leading Performance Carbon Mast, this system delivers exceptional stiffness, minimal flex, and precise rider feedback.

A+ System Technology

Armstrong’s proprietary A+ System securely connects the mast, fuselage, front wing, and stabilizer into a unified structure for unmatched stiffness and smooth performance on the water.
