The proprietary welded assembly eliminates loose hardware and water ingress common to all other aluminum masts. The highly engineered extrusion is lighter than most solid carbon offerings, and results in a mast that is only 1lb\/0.5kg heavier than Cedrus hollow carbon masts. Anodized fade-free gold and with light laser-etched graphics, the mast features stainless steel threads and requires minimal care and maintenance. Available in two distinct models, Evolution Aluminum fills a large gap between Wind and Surf to address new forms of foiling and performance attributes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eForged:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16mm thick piercing region, 120mm constant chord length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20mm thickness up high, resulting in the stiffest aluminum mast on the market (stiffer than other 19mm masts, most HM carbon masts)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow drag, for better pumping performance and higher top end speeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatented ventilation-resistant design for wing and kite foiling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e4.5lbs\/2kg @ 78cm, 4.8lbs\/2.2kg @ 85cm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-around, balanced mast at the intersection of Surf and Wind for performance prone, DW, parawing, big wave tow, and wind-powered forms of foiling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eEvolution Adapter Interface: Compatible with all foils using precision machined adapters\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFoil Drive compatible board mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClydesdale:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstant 20mm thick x 118mm chord length profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow wetted area, for easier paddle-up starts and pump foiling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtreme stiffness for the largest of foils (tested with 2m+ span)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eEquivalent weight to the Forged model\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptimized for lower-speed foiling with extra large foils: Pump, Dockstart, Wake, beginner prone and DW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvolution Adapter Interface: Compatible with all foils using precision machined adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFoil Drive compatible board mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAre you a beginner looking to get into foiling?
