The AXIS 19mm Aluminium Mast section was developed after countless hours of computer analysis, and resulted in a 2.24 times stiffness improvement over most other brands 15mm masts. It’s even stiffer than most carbon masts available today!
This provides a very direct and predictable feel, especially through manoeuvres, making it the best choice for beginner to intermediate riders. Many expert riders choose to stay with the 19mm Aluminium, preferring its superior stiffness and predictable feel, especially when used with larger front wings (1050 or larger).
The affordability also allows riders to carry a couple of mast lengths for different foiling disciplines, ocean conditions or locations, or upgrade to a longer mast once you’ve mastered the basics. The modular nature of the AXIS system means it‚Äôs a quick and easy changeout.
A 16mm mast option for lighter riders, or prone and kite foilers using smaller wings is also available on request. These are 1.67 times stiffer than most 15mm masts on the market. Please contact us if you would like to order this option.
Set up
All 19mm Aluminium Masts work in conjunction with the AXIS base plate, for connection to the board, and the AXIS Doodad for connection to the fuselage. Often overlooked, the Doodad is a secret weapon that provides industry leading rigidity between mast, fuselage and foil. Compared with other brands you’ll feel the difference immediately!
Both the Black and Red fuselages can be fitted to all Aluminium Masts.
