Fluid Shift 3 in 1 Edition Adjustable Mast - Hollow MFG. Alloy
The first of its kind where the mast will adapt to your ability.
*Mast Top Plate not included
This is where it all starts. We have ridden masts as short as 10” to over 30”. We feel 14” is the perfect height to begin your adventure. We have coached countless people that have struggled for years on a traditional mast height with great success on this reduced height. You are still above the water, but you don’t have nearly the magnified sensation on your starts as you would with most conventional mast heights. Once you feel comfortable with your starts at this height, we encourage you to directly go to setting #2.
SETTING 1 SENSATION
SKIMMING OVER THE WATER
Congratulations you have advanced from the beginning phase and feel comfortable with your start. Now you can learn weight position, your ideal stance, how to open your hips and shoulders up to the boat, all the while holding on to the handle. This setting is all about building the correct foundation that will carry you through every level of foiling. We encourage you to stay at this setting until you feel solid with the key mechanics and have a comfortable heelside or toeside turn without involving the wave.
SETTING 2 SENSATION
HOVERING OVER THE WATER
You are on a roll. You have your starts and the basic fundamentals in your back pocket. Welcome to the highest setting. While on the second wave with a roughly 80’ rope we encourage you to be outside of the wave and gradually edge into the wave all while holding onto the handle. This setting will more than likely take some time – but the goal is to understand the power of the wave, where the force is coming from and you will need to adjust your weight / movements to these new forces. Once you feel you like you understand the habits of the wave and how you need to adjust for them – drop the handle and begin your flight.
SETTING 3 SENSATION
FLYING
STORY
Fluid Design
Speed, lift and travel usually override arguably the most important aspect of your mast – the flow.
A shape manifested with a built-in metronome to keep a consistent prolonged cadence.
When we set out to design this revolutionary series of masts, we were looking for an effortless turn like you are ripping powder.
A fluid session will always have you feeling in control of your ride as you comfortably stand upright in a natural foil position.
FEATURES
For several decades people have experienced the feeling of flight.
Hard to beat the sensation of levitating a couple feet from the water’s surface.
The hurdle has always been a taller mast is a lot more fun, but also infinitely harder to learn on.
So, we changed that.
We created and patented the world’s only telescoping adjustable mast.
Now you can have a mast that grows with you as you progress through the 3 major aspects of adapting to foiling.
3 options in 1 to take you through the evolution.
Patent Pending.
CONSTRUCTION
Hollow MFG. Alloy
A high-grade corrosion resistant alloy is pushed through a die to the desired cross section. This workhorse heat treated 6061 aluminum has a higher strength than other metals for increased wear and tear and a more solid connections between the different parts.
Benefits of extrusion process….
-Light weight – We hollow out the inside making it less than half the weight of a solid piece.
-Sequence – Creates the correct ratio of dampening to response – this construction is not too slow or fast for the proper rhythm in your foiling.

Setting 1 @ 14” Tall - Deep Water Start Edition
This is where it all starts. We have ridden masts as short as 10” and well over 30”. We feel 14” is the perfect height to begin your adventure.
We have coached countless people that have struggled for years on a traditional mast height with great success on this reduced height. You are still above the water, but you don’t have nearly the magnified sensation on your starts as you would with most conventional mast heights. Once you feel comfortable with your starts at this height, we encourage you to directly go to the setting 2.
Sensation – Skimming over the water
Setting 2 @ 17” Tall - Turning Edition
Congratulations you have advanced from the beginning phase and feel comfortable with your start. Now you can learn weight position, your ideal stance, how to open your hips and shoulders up to the boat, all the while holding on the handle. This setting is all about building the correct foundation that will carry you through every level of foiling. We encourage you to stay at this setting until you feel solid with the key mechanics and have a comfortable heelside toeside turn without involving the wave.
Sensation – Hovering over the water
Setting 3 @ 20” Tall – Wave Edition
You are on a roll. You have your starts and the basic fundamentals in your back pocket. Welcome to the highest setting. While on the second wave with a roughly 80’ rope we encourage you to be outside of the wave and gradually edge into the wave all while holding the handle. This setting will more than likely take awhile – but the goal is to understand the power of the wave, where the force is coming from and you will need to adjust your weight / movements to these new forces. Once you feel you like you understand the habits of the wave (again might take awhile) – drop the handle and begin your flight.
Sensation – Flying
