19mm Black Aluminium Mast Base Plate

The 2026 AXIS Aluminium Mast Base Plate has been re-engineered from the ground up, improving on what was already an industry leading design.

CNC machined from a single, solid, billet of aircraft grade aluminium, the new base plate delivers increased stiffness and durability while reducing unnecessary weight all wrapped up in a BLACK anodised coating that will survive the rigors of both salt and freshwater riding.

The bevelled mast pocket now features a tapered profile, increasing lateral stiffness while removing material where it isn’t needed, a split, cross-stabilising bolt exquisitely faired into the bevel further strengthens the mast to base plate connection, helping maintain a solid, precise fit and improving long term durability.

The rear section of the bevel has also been re-designed with a smoother, less aggressive edge for improved safety and easier handling.

Overall plate width has been reduced, allowing it to fit neatly inside trench-style foil boards, particularly the AXIS Pocket Trench and additional mounting holes provide direct attachment options for your Foil Drive or other compatible foil-assist system.

The 2026 AXIS Aluminium Mast Base Plate is supplied with mounting screws !

NOT compatible with previous generation 19mm RED aluminium masts

19mm Black Aluminium mast are available in 45cm to 105cm versions.

The 2026 AXIS Doodad is the critical connection between AXIS Aluminium Masts and Black Series Fuselages, forming one of the key structural components of the system for maximum stiffness and strength.

The redesigned Doodad features additional support legs that increase the overall lateral stiffness while significantly reducing torsional loads and internal stresses on the mast sidewalls. The result is a stronger, more rigid connection between the mast and fuselage.

The drop on Doodad fairing spreads the loads more effectively between the mast and fuselage reducing point loading at the connection. Its tapered profile also draws on lessons learned during the development of our Ultra HM and Kaiwi masts, improving water flow around the mast to fuselage junction to reduce both turbulence and drag.

The 2026 Doodad is available for both Standard Black Series Fuselages and the FATTY Fuselage system.

It is also fully compatible with previous-generation 19 mm RED Aluminium Masts.

The 2026 Doodads are supplied with mounting screws !

19mm Black Aluminium mast are available in 45cm to 105cm versions.

You need a 19mm Doodad to connect your mast to your fuselage. Or 19mm Doodad FATTY to connect your mast to your FATTY fuselage..
