MAST OVERVIEW

High quality windsurfing masts are mainly manufactured in Italy. There are different companies producing this part of the equipment. Some companies even if Italian are based outside Italy. Our supplier is based in Italy and produces in Italy. Most of the masts might look the same, but often produced by different manufactures with different machinery, materials, and technology. By having the mast production based in Italy where Point-7 is situated, it’s possible to have a continuous development into new products and ensure that the quality of all finished products that leaves the factory is second to none. Further guaranteeing the quality of the materials being used in production are up to the specifications needed for making a durable performance product.

1.

The mast is a very important accessory for our rig. It’s the back bone of your windsurfing sail. It’s where the development starts. Once you have defined and developed a preferred mast curve and material characteristics, the sail designer starts cutting the sail on that mast. Just like having a suit tailor made.

2.

Most of the masts on the market are constant curve, but this is only a general term to explain the characteristics. What is important is the curve percentages values of the bottom and top sections of the mast, including materials, shapes, and reflex. These are values which are very different in each sail brand, and all kept secret. This is why the best efficiency is reached by having an integrated rig.

3.

Our curves are progressive, and each mast length has a specific curve to work best in that specific condition. Shorter mast length have softer bases and stiffer tops to guarantee comfort and stability, longer mast length are stiffer in the base and softer in the top to give more power in light winds and breathing of the sail.

From now our mast lines have the bend curve printed on them, so you will know more of the product you are buying!

4.

Point-7 masts are manufactured using the Prepreg-Autoclave process which creates an extremely homogenous carbon/resin mix under high pressure. Using a newly patented procedure which allows the resin to be distributed in equal quantities around the mast walls, the masts are guaranteed to have an equal curve around all its diameter, and thus more uniform in comparison to former production procedures. The resin is reduced to an absolute minimum for unprecedented durability. The resin used is top quality as well and will give support to the carbon even on very hot temperatures and on water crashes.

5.

The latest precision in the layout process of the materials, and the 100% efficiency in minimizing the resins, has led to save 300 grams on average. The curves have not changed, but the feeling will be new, meaning lighter and more responsive, as true Point-7 product.

F100 designed for foil sails

629,00€ – 749,00€

COMMITED TO FLY.

DOES A FOIL MAST ABSORB CHOP?
DOES THE PROFILE, OUTLINE, LEACH LINE OF A FOIL SAIL LOOK LIKE A NORMAL FIN SAIL?
DOES A FOIL SAIL HAVE THE SAME PRESSURE AS A FIN SAIL?

These are just 3 main questions that can be answered the same. NO.
Therefore in Point-7 we have decided to develop dedicated masts to enhance the performance of our foil sails, exclusively for those who don’t want compromises in performance.

Sizes

F100 | 100% Carbon | 460  490  520  570

SDM-s

329,00€ – 649,00€

SDM-S: Standard Diameter-Sonic.

We added the ‘S’  for sonic to our SDM masts as on the top of the mast, there is a new construction which increases the reflex on the winglet area of the sail, giving more control and stability to the sail. The mast are available in the names of K100, K80 and K60, to cover 3 carbon % gradients. You will discover more about them in the dedicated sections. The K100 will be introducing the 520, 550 and 570 masts for formula foil racing

Sizes

K100 | 100% Carbon | 430  460  490

K80 |     80% Carbon | 430  460  490

K60|      60% Carbon | 430  460

RDM-i

409,00€ – 559,00€

RDM-I: Reduce Diameter- Inverted.

Once you take out the mast from its mast bag, do not be thinking that something is wrong. The ferrule is part of the top, and not part of the bottom anymore. Therefore, the rdm is now being called RDM-I. After testing with our wave team, the masts, we have discovered that landing hard flat or nosedive jumps, was creating extra stress to the top, where the ferrule would enter it. By having the ferrule being part of the top, the stress is taken out and the tops do not suffer the extra stress that could bring in the worst case to breakages. We have decided to clean up our RDM-I range by offering 2 very distinctive models. The K87 and the K97. 87% carbon mast to bring a durable mast with the highest carbon % possible. A 100% carbon mast is the K97, but with extra reinforcements to give the extra durability to the normal 100%, making itself a 97% carbon mast. A new rubber cap at the joints, to clean up the inside part of the mast from dirt, while uniting the top to the base.

Available sizes: 

K97 | Carbon 97% | 300, 340, 370, 400, 430

K87 | Carbon 87% | 340, 370, 400, 430
