North Carbon Integrated MastUpdated an hour ago

The Foil Drive x North UHM80 Carbon Integrated Mast combines high-performance North foil technology with Foil Drive electric assistance in a purpose-built, ultra-low-drag carbon mast.

Engineered for riders who want to maximise efficiency, glide and battery runtime, the UHM80 is designed to lift onto foil quickly and stay there with minimal drag.

Ultra High Modulus Carbon Integrated Mast

The North Ultra High Modulus Carbon Mast features a state-of-the-art monocoque construction with the Foil Drive High Power Motor seamlessly integrated into the mast.

At 80 cm ride height, the mast is ideally suited to assisted prone surf, downwind foiling and extended Foil Drive sessions.

Ultra-Low Drag

The UHM80 is designed to minimise drag both under power and while gliding.

Compared with the North AF80 FD Mast, the UHM80 features:

• 25% thinner profile
• 14% shorter chord length
• Reduced drag
• Improved manoeuvrability
• Faster foil take-offs
• Smoother, more efficient glide

The reduced drag allows riders to maintain speed more efficiently, helping maximise glide time and get more runtime from every battery charge.

Optimised Motor Position

The Foil Drive High Power Motor is integrated 18cm from the baseplate.

This position is carefully balanced to provide efficient propulsion while keeping the propeller high enough to minimise interference once you're up and foiling. 

The result is a clean, efficient setup designed to transition seamlessly between powered assistance and unpowered glide.

Built for Efficient Foil Assist

With its combination of Ultra High Modulus carbon construction, monocoque design and integrated Foil Drive motor, the UHM80 is built for riders who prioritise efficiency and performance.
