The Armstrong Integrated Foil Drive Carbon Mast 18.5 cm is purpose-built for Foil Assist riders seeking the cleanest, most efficient, and highest-performing powered foiling experience. Designed as a fully integrated system rather than an aftermarket add-on, it combines the mast and motor pod into a single streamlined structure, significantly reducing drag while enhancing stability and overall efficiency.
Based on the proven architecture of the Armstrong Performance Mast, this integrated carbon mast delivers exceptional stiffness, precise control, and direct feedback underfoot. The optimized motor pod position, located just 18.5 cm below the base plate, creates a balanced and natural feel that allows riders to transition seamlessly between powered assistance and pure gliding.
The result is a setup that feels remarkably close to traditional foiling, with smoother acceleration, easier takeoffs, improved efficiency, and a more predictable ride in all conditions.
Built from premium Toray High Modulus Carbon, the Armstrong Integrated Foil Drive Mast combines lightweight performance with outstanding stiffness and durability. Its construction is derived directly from Armstrong’s high-performance mast program, ensuring maximum responsiveness and precise rider feedback.
The integrated 18.5 cm motor pod position is specifically optimized for Foil Assist applications, improving low-speed lift and reducing drag compared to conventional bolt-on motor systems. This refined hydrodynamic design allows the foil to accelerate efficiently while maintaining excellent glide characteristics once the motor is disengaged.
A fully integrated internal cable routing system keeps the setup clean, protected, and highly streamlined. By eliminating external cables and unnecessary hardware, water flow remains uninterrupted, improving both performance and reliability.
Compatible with the Armstrong A+ System, this mast works seamlessly with both current and previous generation Armstrong foils, offering complete flexibility for riders already invested in the Armstrong ecosystem.
Designed for riders who want the most natural and efficient Foil Assist experience possible, the Armstrong Integrated Foil Drive Mast delivers outstanding control, longer glide phases, improved battery efficiency, and a truly connected feeling on the water.
