Aotearoa (New Zealand) is a pretty special spot on the globe; no lack of wind, incredible point breaks, towering mountain peaks and singularly beautiful highland lakes.

It also happens to be the birthplace of Armstrong Foils and home to the company’s founder and product visionary, Armie Armstrong.

When four Armstrong team riders – Oskar Johansson, Austin Tovey, Jeremy Wilmotte and Noah Flegel – joined Armie and the Armstrong crew for a very special tour of the country’s ins and outs from North to South, the carte blanche itinerary could only be a foil-fest.
