What Cedrus has to say:

WE ARE BUILDING THESE AS FAST AS WE CAN, CURRENT LEADTIME MAY DELIVERY

LAUNCH MASTS (PURCHASED JAN/EARLY FEB) ARE SHIPPING

Cedrus was the first brand to collaborate with Foil Drive on an integrated assist/e-foil mast, with the project kicking of in 2022 and formally launching in 2023 direct through Foil Drive as their first and only integrated mast at the time. We are excited to open orders for the next generation Cedrus integrated mast lineup, available in different lengths and with multiple pod locations to match the unique needs of each rider. These masts are based on our highly regarded Forged aluminum mast platform, offering the stiffness of UHM carbon at 1/3 the price. This platform offers unmatched flexibility, performance, durability, and value. These masts are compatible with V2 motors and battery systems, including the new Fusion.

Features:

• The first and only universal Foil Drive integrated mast: compatible with foils from all brands
• Adapters compatible with all other Cedrus Evolution masts (Wind, Surf, Aluminum)
• The only variable-profile aluminum mast, for maximum stiffness and minimal drag
• Industry-leading torsional stiffness, for faster and more pivot-like turns
• Monolithic welded structure: no screws to loosen, seize, or fail
• Weight: ~5lbs, 1/2lb more than Forged mast
• Fade-free gold anodizing and subtle laser etched graphics
• Compatible with Foil Drive V2 motors only
• Mast does not include motor, buy from Mackite
• Fully designed, engineered, and manufactured in the USA

Mast and Cable Sizing:

All brands measure their masts differently. For a detailed mast sizing guide, including how we measure length, please see this page. For detailed specs on the mast dimensions, these can be found on the Evolution Aluminum product page. Integrated masts come with the motor cable and "puck" installed; you will need to connect the cable to your battery, and your motor to the mast. We will provide clear instructions closer to delivery. The motor pod measurement is taken from the Foil Drive battery surface to the effective propellor shaft, which is not the same as cable length. There will be extra cable coiled inside the mast to allow compatibility between Foil Drive Gen 2 and Fusion systems. If you have both Gen 2 and Fusion systems, we highly recommend securing a Barnacle cable extender from Foil Drive so you are not having to adjust cable lengths frequently.

Pre-Order Considerations:

• "in-stock" masts will deliver late February or early march
• "out of stock" / pre-order masts to follow in the order received. We cannot give more accurate dates at this time
• All length/pod locations +/-1cm. As we refine our processes. We should have no problem hitting advertised specs, but may need a little flexibility as we lock our complex forging, welding, and pod placement process.
• Please do not email for order updates and lead times.
• Order your adapters with your mast to ensure combined delivery
• Final graphics subject to change
• Future production models and pricing subject to change
• Cancellations for any reason will incur a 5% restocking fee to cover our credit card transaction costs. Adapter order changes are OK, we get that things change
• If you are uncomfortable with unknown lead times and slight ambiguity at the time of order, please wait for production stock. Cedrus occasionally encounters things completely out of our control which can affect delivery dates including but not limited to weather, strikes, and vendor backlogs. Fortunately, our hyper-local and vertically integrated supply chain minimizes this volatility, but we all know the world is a crazy place right now.

Thank you for your patience and support. We are excited to offer these new masts, and honored to be working with Foil Drive again!
