Armstrong Foils has refined its all-time favorite foil board, unveiling the WKT Mk II, a compact, ultra-durable board that pushes wake, kite, tow surf and pump foiling progression.

The WKT Mk II delivers an incredibly broad range of performance for riders at every stage of progression from beginner to advanced.

The Mk II keeps the legendary stiffness and strength of the original while introducing key design and construction updates that make it easier, more comfortable, and durable, without losing its high-performance edge.

“We took what we loved in the original and made it better” says Armstrong Foils founder Armie Armstrong.

A swept wedge nose locks stability under your front foot, giving beginners confidence on takeoff and advanced riders precision on high-speed landings. The ultra-thin 1 ¼” profile keeps foil feedback sharp and direct, while the reduced nose rocker boosts glide and flow.

At its core, Armstrong’s new Quad Carbon Stringer System paired with premium molded carbon construction makes the Mk II lighter, stiffer, and more durable than ever.

Available in 109cm (10.5L) and 122cm (12.5L) sizes.

Product Description - WKT Mk II Foil Board:

The WKT Mk II board delivers an incredibly broad range of performance for wake, kite, and tow foiling riders at every stage of progression. Retaining the stiffness, responsiveness, and strength of the original WKT, it now features design refinements that make it easier and more comfortable to ride.

A swept wedge nose adds stability and support under the front foot when the board is riding the surface, giving beginners confidence in their first flights and advanced riders the control they need for precise landings.

Its minimal thickness creates a direct, connected feel to the foil, allowing energy to transfer instantly for precision maneuvers. The reduced nose rocker scoop boosts glide performance, while the nearly flat deck and rocker ensure maximum foil feedback.
