EVENT: Sailing: Men's Windsurfing (IQ Foil)
Armit was one of the most talked-about youth sailors in the country when he won the boys Laser Radial (now ILCA 6) at the 2018 youth sailing world championships but he decided to take a break from the sport after struggling with the transition to the ILCA 7.
His hiatus didn't last long, however, as Armit discovered windfoiling in late 2020 and soon established himself as New Zealand's top male competitor. His growing list of accolades includes several national titles, as well as top 10s in 2023 at the Princess Sofia Regatta in Spain, the European championships in Greece, the Olympic test event in France and the combined sailing world champs in the Netherlands in August.
