Axis Power Carbon Foil Mast & Base Plate

Recent development in foil design and performance (high aspect ratios and broader spans) demand stiffer, more direct and positive connections than current masts deliver. Bend (lateral distortion) and twist/torsion (rotation around the mast’s length or torque axis) compromise connection, control, speed and ultimately the hydrodynamic efficiency of your hydrofoil’s potential. The stiffer the mast, the better the connection to the foil system and more importantly the untapped potential of highperformance foil designs can be fully realised.

AXIS Power Carbon – High Modulus addresses these challenges, delivering bend resistance that is superior to the stiffest Alloy masts combined with next-level torque axis resistance. (Surpassing the stiffness of our 19mm Alloy mast which is the market stiffness benchmark). The result is a positive connected feel, direct drive, immediate feedback and ultimate control. High aspect foils perform as they should, feel and control enter an entirely new realm.

The new High Modulus Carbon fibre used in our mast layup is considerably stiffer and stronger than the regular carbon fibre used in conventional constructions. Innovative, considered and balanced placement of materials in our proprietary production process paired with rigorous testing has delivered a breathtaking performance leap. Opting for a one-piece design, we avoided the flow/drag and jointing issues associated with multi-part mast constructions.

Choose your Power level

Our new masts are available in two models, the Power Carbon and Power Carbon - High Modulus, the latter providing additional strength and 35% more bend resistance than our industry-leading 19mm aluminium mast. The High Modulus will be the mast of choice for the most decerning rider seeking ultimate performance, and heavier riders using our larger span foils.

With AXIS Power Carbon masts, riders will finally be at one with the foil. AXIS Power Carbon Masts have a new and greatly improved base connection design. While fully compatible with all existing Red & Black fuselage, a new installation technique/method is required, this involves simply inserting the mast leading edge first into the fuselage opening, then rotating the trailing edge down. Removal is done in reverse, trailing edge rotates out first... super simple!

Remember use only 30mm M8 bolts to attach fuselage to Power Carbon masts.
