A Top level performance Wake & Tow Surf Foil board. Not just for Noah, but for all intermediate to expert wake and tow surf foilers.
Product Description:
The Noah Flegel (NF) Pro Board, designed with world champion Noah Flegel and Armstrong founder Armie Armstrong, combines the best of SURF and WKT MK II boards into one versatile quiver killer for wake and tow foiling. Featuring a refined shape with clean release, minimal drag, and an industry-leading Dual Carbon Stringer System, it maximizes foil time for beginners while serving advanced riders who want one board to travel and rip behind boats or get towed into waves.

Key Features:
Shape
SURF shape with sharp rear chines and squash tail for super hard carving, double concave bottom for powerful pop and seamless release, and purposeful volume distribution for easy takeoff and jump recovery.
Connection
Dual Carbon Stringer System for meaningful rigidity and responsiveness without compromise to weight, minimal board thickness for solid feedback, and grippy deckpad with micro-cutouts, surf-style kickpad, and footstrap inserts for added control and connection.
Ultra stiff carbon fiber and PVC sandwich construction, with added PVC layering around nose, tail, and rails to help prevent dings, and carbon fiber reinforcement around the foil track box and primary weight-bearing zones on deck for added impact-resistance and durability
Features:
· Stable outline - Full nose with a squash tail.
· Footstrap inserts - Option to strap in for tricks.
· Ultra wide deck grip - Grippy for control in strapless tricks.
· Raised Deck Wedges & Arch Bars - Raised deck grip arch bars and front rear corner blocks provide intuitive foot placement references.
· Double concave bottom - For quick pop off the water.
· Dual Carbon Stringer System - Deck to bottom i-beam dual stringers provide maximum structural rigidity and durability.
· Carbon Foil Tracks - Proprietary carbon fiber foil tracks are keyed directly into the fibers of the stringers for a fully integrated construction.
· Sharp rear chines - Efficient water release on takeoff.
· V-tail exit - Clean and efficient water exit.
Designed for Wake & Tow Foiling
The Noah Flegel (NF) Pro Board was designed in partnership with world-class wake and tow foiling champion and Armstrong Team Rider, Noah Flegel. The goal for NF Pro was to capture his experience and invaluable input to make the perfect quiver killer quiver board for high-performance wake and tow foiling. He worked closely with Armstrong founder, lead designer, and full-time frother, Armie Armstrong, to best understand how to purposefully meld our SURF and WKT MK II board into one go-to board for wake and tow foiling. The added benefit of leveraging the shape and volume distribution of the SURF board for wake and/or tow foiling is that the NF Pro takes the guesswork out of getting the board up and out of the water.
The NF Pro is the best of both, with a refined shape that provides clean release with minimal drag and smooth and stable recovery all-around, as well as industry-leading Dual Carbon Stringer System for meaningful rigidity and exceptional responsiveness throughout. It’s the board to help beginner riders who are getting into wake and/or tow foiling to maximize time getting onto foil, and intermediates and advanced riders alike who want to travel the world to rip behind boats or get towed into waves – all with one board. As with all Armstrong products, the NF Pro is built in our very own factory with premium materials and fastidious attention to detail. The NF Pro comes with a fit-for-purpose carry bag.
Shape
Tailored for Noah Flegel. Made for all.
Noah Flegel wanted to purposefully meld our SURF and WKT MK II board into one go-to board for wake and tow foiling. He wanted something that would be the best of both and would help to further push what’s possible, whether for tricks, jumps, or full-force cranking turns in juicy surf. The shape of the NF Pro is primarily based on our SURF, but with sharper rear chines and a squash tail for super hard carving, pronounced double concave bottom for powerful pop and seamless release, and purposeful volume distribution for easy takeoff and jump recovery. The NF Pro’s bottom shape is critical to getting the most out of performing tricks and jumps with maximum height relative to speed. The double concave at the nose transitions to a flat mid-section with an aggressive squash tail for efficient flow and reduced drag. The reduced thickness, in comparison to our SURF, provides shorter distance to the foil without any compromise to weight or structural integrity. The added benefit of leveraging the shape and volume distribution of the SURF board for wake and/or tow foiling is that the NF Pro takes the guesswork out of getting the board up and out of the water. It’s the board to help beginner riders who are getting into wake and/or tow foiling to maximize time getting onto foil, and intermediates and advanced riders alike who want to travel the world to rip behind boats or get towed into waves – all with one board.
Connection
Pioneered to feel it all. Like never before.
Our industry-leading i-beam Dual Carbon Stringer System, which locks in place our in-house carbon fiber foil track box and runs across through the midway point of the board and up through to the deck, provides meaningful structural rigidity to the foil track box and board overall, significantly improves responsiveness across all axes (pitch, yaw, and roll), and enhances torque input into mast and foil. The NF Pro is kept as thin as possible to shorten rider distance to the foil without any compromise to weight or structural integrity. The Armstrong deckpad has been developed to get the most of out of translating rider input directly into board and foil control. The EVA foam features micro-cutouts throughout the main two-thirds of the deck for confidence-inspiring grippiness for strapless riding. The rear-thirds of the deck features a full width surf-style kickpad with guiding markings for foil track placement and diamond traction bumps for full-force cranking turns. Holes in the deckpad are laser-cut for easy access to footstrap inserts.
Construction
Engineered to push harder. Built to keep up.
The NF Pro is built around a foam core, wrapped with an incredibly stiff double-skin carbon fiber and PVC sandwich. Our i-beam Dual Carbon Stringer System locks in place our in-house carbon fiber foil track box and runs across through the midway point of the board and up through to the deck. The NF Pro features additional carbon fiber layering strategically placed around the foil track box and primary weight-bearing zones on deck for added impact-resistance and overall durability, as well as additional PVC layering around nose, tail, and rails to help prevent dings.
