Slingshot Phantasm Carbon Mast V1.1 – Ultra-Stiff Carbon Mast for Precision Foiling Performance

The Slingshot Phantasm Carbon Mast V1.1 is engineered for riders who demand uncompromising stiffness, control, and efficiency across all foiling disciplines, including hydrofoil surf wing, wing foiling, foil surfing, and wind foiling. Built with advanced carbon construction and a performance-driven design, this mast delivers a smooth, predictable ride regardless of speed or conditions.

Designed as part of Slingshot’s premium Phantasm foil system, the V1.1 version refines stiffness, connection strength, and hydrodynamics to help riders push their limits with confidence.

Industry-Leading Stiffness for Maximum Control

One of the defining features of the Phantasm Carbon Mast V1.1 is its exceptional stiffness. Slingshot designed this mast to be one of the stiffest on the market, ensuring precise control and eliminating unwanted flex during high-speed riding.

A stiffer mast translates to:

• Immediate response to rider input
• Greater stability at speed
• Improved edge control and carving precision

This rigidity allows riders to maintain full control whether they are cruising, carving waves, or accelerating in powered wing foil sessions.

Advanced Carbon Construction Technology

The mast uses a proprietary dual-molding carbon construction process, combining multiple layers of high-performance materials to achieve optimal strength and performance.

Construction highlights:

• Unidirectional carbon fibers for directional stiffness
• 12K super high-modulus pre-preg carbon layers
• Dual carbon core for multi-directional strength
• Internal I-beam structure using 12K and 24K carbon

This layered design creates exceptional rigidity across all axes—major, minor, and biaxial—resulting in a mast that remains stable even under extreme loads.

Predictable Ride Across All Conditions

The Phantasm Carbon Mast V1.1 is built to deliver a consistent and predictable ride no matter your speed or riding style. This predictability is crucial for progression, especially in disciplines like foil surfing and wind foiling, where control and balance are key.

Benefits of predictable performance:

• Confidence in choppy water conditions
• Smooth transitions between maneuvers
• Reduced rider fatigue over long sessions

Whether you’re pumping, carving, or gliding, the mast maintains a stable platform that enhances your overall foiling experience.

Reinforced Bigfoot Connection for Maximum Strength

A standout feature of the V1.1 version is its Bigfoot connection system, which significantly improves the mast-to-fuselage interface.

Key advantages:

• Over 50% larger connection area than standard designs
• Increased structural integrity
• Reduced flex at connection points
• Enhanced rider confidence at high speeds

This robust connection ensures that energy transfer from the rider to the foil remains efficient and direct, improving performance across all hydrofoil surf wing and wing foiling applications.

Large Pedestal Base for Board Stability

The mast features a wide pedestal base, providing a solid and adjustable connection to the board. This design improves stability and allows riders to fine-tune their setup.

Benefits of the pedestal base:

• Secure attachment to the board
• Increased customization options
• Improved load distribution

This ensures a stable platform, especially during aggressive maneuvers or high-speed runs.

Optimized Hydrodynamics for Speed and Efficiency

Beyond stiffness, the mast’s shape is carefully refined to minimize drag and improve water flow.

Hydrodynamic advantages:

• Reduced drag for higher speeds
• Smooth water flow along the mast
• Enhanced glide efficiency

This makes it ideal for riders looking to maximize performance in wing foiling and foil surfing, where efficiency and speed are critical.

Multiple Length Options for Every Discipline

The Phantasm Carbon Mast V1.1 is available in several lengths, allowing riders to tailor their setup based on conditions and skill level.

Available sizes:

• 72 cm – Ideal for beginners and shallow water
• 82 cm – Balanced all-round performance
• 92 cm – Advanced riding and wave conditions
• 102 cm – Maximum clearance for high-speed foiling

These options ensure compatibility with various riding styles, from casual cruising to high-performance wind foiling.
