Mast Overview
"The Ezzy Skinny Mast makes ANY sail work better...not just ours!"

THE EZZY HOOKIPA SKINNY MAST IS THE STRONGEST MAST IN THE WORLD.


Details:

  • Our skinny masts contain 90% pre-preg carbon fiber. Pre-preg is the key to achieving
    a superior weight-to-strength ratio.
  • The fibers are pre-saturated to an exact resin-to-fiber ratio, then hand-wrapped
    around a mandrel, and then thermally cured.
  • The Ezzy Skinny Mast gets its superior strength from the 50% extra thickness of
    its walls.
  • The small diameter makes the Ezzy Skinny a dream to sail. You’ll notice the improved
    handling right away in your jibes.
  • Each mast comes with a mast shim that fits a standard boom.
  • Ezzy tops and bottoms are interchangeable and sold individually. You can buy the
    perfect combination for your sail quiver. That means fewer masts. The general
    rule when mixing tops and bottoms is: choose a shorter bottom with a longer top.
  • Talk to your local dealer about a skinny dedicated mast extension, or conversion
    parts to convert your existing mast extension to work with skinny masts.
  • The Ezzy Sails are widely tested on standard and reduced diameter masts, and work
    perfectly well, but if you are looking for the perfect blend of performance and
    durability for Wave, Bump and Jump or even Slalom conditions, the RDM mast system
    is is the way to go. The Ezzy Skinny masts work FANTASTIC on the Infinity
    Series
    !

Note on Masts:
Ezzy Sails work great with the Ezzy Mast system, but also work with a variety of other brand masts (RDM and regular diameter).  You could contact your mast maker and see if the bend of your non-Ezzy mast is compliant.

Ezzy mast bend curves are tip: 75% to 79% and base: 62% to 65%

Note: this is not carbon content. This is percentage bend relative to the midpoint bend.

How To Choose The Perfect Mast Combination For Your Quiver:

  2. Second, use a longer top for your bigger sail.
  3. Third, use a shorter bottom for your smaller sail.

    thanks for the questions. Wish I could help you, but it seems you should reach out to a windsurf dealer that is familiar with Chinook (they make the Powerglide), RRD, North, Gaastra, etc. I can certainly help you with Ezzy questions. Why don’t you inquire with Gary at Isthmus Sailboards. His contact is gstone@isthmussailboards.com

    Ezzy (top or base) mast and Powerex (base or top) mast can fit together?

  • Anonymous

    yes, as long as it is the “older” Powerex, not the new re-invented Powerex masts which are just starting to come out.

    I wanted to add that I have used electrical tape to seal the seam between the top and bottom mast. This helps to keep water and silt/sand from entering the joint and filling the mast bottom, used in concert with plugs can help keep the mast bottom free of water and silt. The electrical tape is quick and easy to apy and remove, you can even leave it stuck to the mast to use the next time. It also leaves no resifue

    I’m looking for a 100 percent carbon RDM mast in a 460 to rig with my 6.5 and 7.5 Ezzy Freerides. Any suggestions?  I have looked at GT RDM 100 and Powerex 100.  Thanks

    I’ve heard that the new Powerex 100 is a really nice mast!

    Hello, i have got a ezzy wave 5.2m en 4.7m. How important is the bend curve of a mast for a ezzy sail? Because on the ezzy website they say that you need a mast with a tip curve between 75% and 79% and a base curve between 62% to 65%. That is quit a big range. And how does the weight of the rider influences the reaction of a mast? My weight is 87kg. Do I need a other mast than someone who weights 70 kg when using the same sail?

    thanks for the message John! We are really tolerant with mast bends. Most mast on the market (Fiberspar, Powerex, North, Pryde) work great with our sails. The best thing to take into consideration is to use the right length mast, no matter your weight. We take the span of weight into account when suggesting our masts.

    Could some one please advise the most appropriate skinny masts to suit a 6.0 and 7.0 Infinity

    thanks for the message Bryan. Good question. A 460cm RDM will cover your needs nicely.
    Hope this helps!

    thanks for the message Dan. We appreciate you using our SE’s!
    Hard for me to accurately say what the right bend is for your older Gaastra. I know over the last few years Gaastra has been using stiffer tipped masts (like Maui Sails, Severe, and Sailworks), but their older sails most likely used standard bends. Our RDM series uses a standard bend.

    Regarding your quiver, I think the jump from 5.5 to 7.0 is a very smart way to scale things. I’d suggest you look at either a 7.0 Freeride model, or perhaps a 6.9 Wave sail depending upon your local conditions.

    Perhaps there is a local shop you could work with regarding the mast? It would be great if you could rig up the 7.0 Gaastra and have a look how it sets up on our 460.

    Regards,
    tim
