The M96PK mast comes with R8 standard to ensure maximum compatibility for all those who want an upgrade on the mast only.Ultra maneuverable for tow & prone surf, ideal for high-performance downwind sup and wing. The high length makes it a really good and fast choice also for kitefoiling. The result of many hours of prototyping is a mast that will boost your performance to the highest possible level in any field of use.Designed to minimize drag while having the best ratio stiffness/torsion/weight in our line, the Piuma mast is a unique blend of unidirectional, plain, and multiaxial high-modulus carbon fiber of different weights. The stiffness provided by the high modulus is combined with an internal, light core. All this and a dedicated speed profile ensure excellent hydrodynamic performance.Naturally delivered with SAB Pro Finish, and thus hand sanded to achieve a matte surface with 0-thickness graphics, for an elegant Made in Italy product with maximum performance.To top it off… Titanium. Piuma masts come with titanium components, including bushings and an updated Quick Release System Module, improved in materials and design to ensure maximum lightness, functionality, and resistance to corrosion and wear.***Parts made of high-modulus carbon are super stiff and high-performing, but for that reason, they are also very fragile and susceptible to impacts. FOR THIS REASON, THE PIUMA SERIES IS NOT SUITABLE FOR HARD JUMPS AND FREESTYLE, AND ITS USE FOR THESE KINDS OF ACTIVITIES CAN BE DANGEROUS, AND SO NOT ALLOWED OR COVERED BY WARRANTY.
