Lots of chatter on the Armstrong MA wings. Mainly a Sabfoil rider and now joining the Armstrong family. This is my 1st Armstrong hydrofoil. At 83 kg intermediate rider the MA1225 will be my daily driver but wondering what would be the light wind compliment HS1850 or CF2050 V2 or something else? And what's a good tail to match?
On order: 935/60/MA1225/HA195. Also rep told me I should order the new HS205 tail to go with MA1225.

If you're buying new I'd go with the 2050; used, should find the 1850 cheaper. had my first ride on the 1225 yesterday it is everything people have said.
I've heard rumors on the new tails. who did you hear about the 205 tail from? Any indication when you could pre-order/release?

Honestly I'd go the 1850. It's the ultimate session saver and at 83kg you wouldn't want anybting bigger. I've even contemplated adding back one for sh1t and giggles as I ride with heaps of crew who puss around in the light stuff while I sit there.

the 195 is more than ample for the new MA.
id stick with what you have then see what average joe riders say about the 205 first. None of us know anybting about how they perform. You be buying something with zero information.

It was not available yet so I just order the HA195 tail to get started for now.
