A true masterpiece of composite craftmanship and design
The F-ONE HM Carbon Mast 14mm will transform your foiling experience. Slice through the water and enjoy the purest glide with its ultra-thin profile, full Monobloc structure and High Modulus Carbon construction.
- Ultra-thin 14mm profile
- Full Monobloc construction
- High Modulus Carbon layup
- High performance
- Increased rigidity
The HM Carbon Mast 14mm thick features both a new integrated top plate and TITAN mast foot at the bottom. Associated with the profile, this full Monobloc construction brings incredible rigidity and helps reduce drag to a minimum, meaning easier starts, immense glide, higher speeds and the utmost connection between the foil and the board.
The mast is in one piece and built in carbon pre-preg, all molded and cured in one shot. Our SPINE internal structure ensures the best rigidity and control while riding. The added High Modulus Carbon (M40J) fiber layup follows F-ONE’s special recipe to optimize both the bending and torsional stiffness, allowing you to fully stay in control and comfortable in all situations and at high speeds. The layers of carbon fibers have been carefully distributed at 0° lengthwise to optimize stiffness in bending and at about 45° to optimize stiffness in torsion. Finally, this layup has been finely tuned and optimized for each mast length to offer the best performance in each sport.
With a size range going from 75cm, 80cm, 85cm, 95cm to 105cm, this mast is ready for all disciplines — surf, wing, kite — and will particularly excel in downwind and where glide is your top priority. The 80cm is our newest size and was developed specifically for surf foiling, offering better pumping abilities and reducing undesirable breaching of the wingtips on the waves.
This mast can be connected to virtually all boards on the market featuring the Twin-Tracks system and can receive all the wings and fuselage that feature the TITAN connection slot.
Let it glide, further, with the F-ONE HM Carbon Mast 14, a superior piece of gear that raises the bar in terms of performance and control, delivering superior and flawless behaviour on the water.
Technology
Pre-preg Technology makes the foils stiffer and stronger. With pre-preg fabrics, the carbon fiber is directly impregnated with epoxy resin by its manufacturer. This guarantees a perfect ratio between epoxy and carbon and represents the highest quality process. It is then cured at high temperature, bringing strength and durability.
Quality control is much better and so is the working environment for the people building our foils. Pre-preg fabrics offer the lightest weight with the best mechanical properties of carbon fiber.
The High Modulus Carbon fiber layup is 1.5x stiffer than the regular carbon fiber used in other constructions. The percentage of high modulus fiber has been carefully adjusted to obtain the best stiffness in both bending and torsion while keeping enough comfort for any kind of practice.
The TITAN connection enables a very stiff and direct connection between two parts, locking efficiently any movement in all directions. Its format is compact which is hydrodynamically efficient and very easy to use, assemble and disassemble.
