Nouveau boîtier US en carbone moulé
Les Glide V3 sont équipées de notre nouveau boîtier US en carbone moulé, développé en interne par Takoon. Grâce à leur rigidité incomparable, ces nouveaux boitiers apportent une connexion au foil inégalée, une parfaite transmission des efforts et un feeling sans pareil.
Nos nouveaux box de foil sont fabriquées en carbone préimprégné, polymérisé à haute pression et haute température dans un moule en acier. Ce processus permet d’obtenir un boîtier avec des fibres longues de carbone bien compactés, ce qui le rend tout simplement indestructible et ultra rigide.
Grâce à cette construction, si l’on compare nos boitiers carbone aux boitiers classiques comme les Futures, le gain de rigidité et de robustesse est considérable. En effet, généralement fabriqués en plastique injecté chargé avec de la fibre de verre en fibres courtes, les boitiers classiques peuvent présenter de la déformation à l’effort. Sur l’eau, cela se ressent sous forme d’un temps de latence dans la réactivité du foil, que ce soit pour le pumping, pour carver, ou pour les manœuvres. Avec nos nouveaux boîtiers carbone, la transmission des efforts est instantanée et la connexion est ultra rigide.
Plus longs, ces nouveaux boitiers donnent beaucoup plus de liberté de placement de votre foil. Ils viennent en 2 tailles: 33 cm et 38 cm en fonction de la taille de la planche. Ils sont ainsi plus longs de 6 cm et 11 cm que les boîtiers futurs. Ainsi, vous pourrez affiner vos réglages, afin de trouver la position personnelle qui vous convient le plus.
Ils bénéficient aussi d’une double ouverture par rails pour un montage plus rapide : plus besoin de démonter entièrement vos boulons de la platine, il suffit simplement de desserrer les vis, de faire glisser le foil dans les ouvertures et de resserrer les vis et hop, le tour est joué.
Presentation
The HR 18 mm carbon foil mast is designed for riders looking for a robust, forgiving, and versatile setup while remaining accessible.
Thanks to its high-resistance (HR) carbon construction, it offers excellent durability against repeated stress, impacts, and intensive use such as dock starts or demanding foiling conditions. Its slightly more progressive flex provides added comfort and tolerance, while maintaining solid stiffness for precise control.
Positioned as a more accessible alternative to HM masts, the HR 18 mm is ideal for riders seeking reliable, high-performing equipment with great value for money.
Like the rest of the range, it features a full monobloc construction, with the plate and mast base molded as a single piece. This design eliminates mechanical play, reduces unwanted flex, and ensures a solid connection between board and foil.
Its 18 mm profile enhances stability and structural stiffness, providing strong support even at high speeds or under heavy load. On the water, this translates into a smooth, predictable, and reassuring ride—ideal for progression and long, comfortable sessions.
Available in 70 cm, this mast is particularly suited for shallow water, dock starts, or riders looking for more control and ease during their sessions.
👉 For riders seeking maximum performance—especially with large front wings (1700 cm² and above) or weighing over 85 kg—the HM 18 mm masts are recommended for their increased stiffness and more direct feedback.
As a key component of the foil, the mast plays a crucial role in stability, comfort, and power transmission. The HR 18 mm is the perfect choice for those prioritizing reliability, durability, and versatility, with a smooth and confidence-inspiring feel.
Each mast comes with a protective cover and a set of M8 × 25 mm screws, stored in an integrated pocket. It is compatible with all boards equipped with US Box rails.
