Built to deliver a lighter, stronger, and more connected ride, it represents a major leap in durability, response, and long-term performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRefined through years of testing in New Zealand's most demanding conditions, the Midlength Mk II blends Armstrong's signature feel with a new level of control and consistency. It's designed not just to perform, but to keep performing session after session.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt around Armstrong's new X-Form Precision Molded Board Technology, the Midlength Mk II delivers an uncompromising strength-to-weight ratio with precision-tuned performance. Stronger, stiffer, and more durable than traditional constructions, it maintains the connected feel Armstrong boards are known for while eliminating softening and fatigue over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the water, the Midlength Mk II feels composed, responsive, and predictable. The thinner X-Form profile delivers a more direct connection to the foil while the refined bottom design reduces sticking and tracking for cleaner touchdowns and faster recovery. Combined with a surf-style squash tail, Forward Geometry foil track, integrated carbon foil tracks, dual carbon stringer system, and redesigned deck grip, the Midlength Mk II delivers greater control, confidence, and progression across all foiling disciplines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0963\/2216\/files\/Armstrong_Midlength_Mark_II_-_Stonker_Boardsports.png?v=1780455034\" alt=\"Armstrong Midlength Mark II\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIdeal for:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWinging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParawinging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSizes:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e38L – 4'8\" x 18 1\/8\" x 3 1\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e45L – 5'0\" x 18 5\/8\" x 3 1\/2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e55L – 5'4\" x 19 1\/8\" x 4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e65L – 5'8\" x 19 5\/8\" x 4 1\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e75L – 6'0\" x 20 3\/8\" x 4 3\/8\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e85L – 6'4\" x 21 3\/8\" x 4 1\/2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100L – 6'8\" x 22 1\/4\" x 4 7\/8\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e115L – 6'11\" x 22 3\/4\" x 5 1\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e130L – 7'2\" x 23 1\/4\" x 5 5\/8\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eX-Form Precision Molded Board Technology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual Carbon Stringer System\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon Foil Tracks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForward Geometry Foil Track\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFoil Drive Compatible Window\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurf Style Squash Tail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisplacement Hull\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaised Deck Wedges \u0026amp; Arch Bars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFoot Strap Inserts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew Deck Grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInclusions:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePremium Board Bag\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHydro Gav Review\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"Armstrong Midlength MKII Review | The Board Everyone Will Be Talking About\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vlGDy55E838\" width=\"1840\" height=\"1035\"\u003e\n\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConstruction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eX-Form — Precision Molded Board Technology\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the beginning, Armstrong was built on a simple belief: riders should be able to trust their equipment in the harshest conditions, every day. X-Form was born from that same mindset. When existing manufacturing methods couldn't deliver the strength, precision, and durability we envisioned, we didn't compromise — we built our own purpose-designed factory. X-Form represents our commitment to doing things properly, using precision manufacturing to create boards that are stronger, more consistent, and built to progress with riders over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy We Built X-Form\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eOptimal Strength-to-Weight Ratio\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eX-Form was developed to reduce weight while solving long-standing durability and consistency challenges. This construction delivers an uncompromising strength-to-weight ratio with precision-tuned performance. Because performance means nothing if your gear doesn't last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy eliminating the inconsistencies and long-term fatigue associated with traditional board construction, X-Form creates boards that are lighter, stronger, more durable, and more connected underfoot. The result is predictable performance, increased longevity, and a direct connection to the foil that riders can feel every session.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat Is X-Form?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eExact Form, Every Time\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eX-Form is Armstrong's precision molded board technology and manufacturing process. Developed using proprietary CNC-machined molds, precision-engineered internal components, and advanced composite construction, every X-Form board is formed in a single molding cycle under uniform pressure and temperature. The process permanently locks in the board's rocker lines, rails, bevels, and contours while ensuring every internal component is aligned to exact tolerances. Drawing on Armstrong's experience designing and manufacturing high-precision molded foils, X-Form brings the same level of manufacturing accuracy and consistency to board construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eX-Form Benefits\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eMore Direct Connection\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe strength and precision of X-Form construction allow for a considerably thinner board profile, creating a more direct connection to the foil. The result is cleaner feedback underfoot, improved control, and a more responsive feel that helps riders stay connected to what the foil is doing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBuilt to Last\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned to withstand the demands of everyday progression, X-Form delivers a stronger, stiffer, and more durable construction than traditional board manufacturing methods.

Shallower chines and a flatter bottom through the rear further reduce drag and resistance, creating a fast, predictable feel that supports take-offs and landings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSurf Style Squash Tail\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe surf-style squashed tail adds stability when getting onto the board, making early positioning and balance more intuitive. By allowing the rails to remain more parallel for longer, the shape increases surface efficiency and helps generate speed quickly, improving take-off performance. The result is a tail design that feels stable underfoot while delivering faster, more confident launches onto foil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eForward Geometry Foil Track\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArmstrong's Forward Geometry concept, introduced in 2021, redefined foilboard design by placing the foil more centrally to reduce swing weight and increase responsiveness while remaining compatible with any foil system.
