Each size 77, 85, and 95 cm is a fully unique, disciplinespecific build, tuned around how riders actually load different sections of the mast rather than simply scaling a single template. The result is purposebuilt performance you can feel immediately in glide, maneuverability, and ventilation resistance. Every Apex mast is constructed with Ultra High Modulus Carbon, delivering a dramatic leap in stiffness and responsiveness. Under load, the Apex masts feel sharper, faster, and more reactive, with up to 30% less drag than our standard carbon constructions, translating directly into more speed, more efficiency, and more control in real-world riding conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizes: Available in 77, 85, 95 centimeters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColors: Available in Black with Luminous Bright Red logos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"otitle second\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"specs\" class=\"container-fluid full v2026\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container stsizes\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-12 col-md-12 bgtext render\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spheader\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-12 col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStock Sizes.\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-12 col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"bttns\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ktfoiling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/apex-specs.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ktfoiling.com\/wp-content\/themes\/quatro\/images\/view-fullscreen.svg\" width=\"345\" height=\"60\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container-fluid full rendering\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-12 col-md-12\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container-fluid full slide\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container-fluid text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-xs-12 col-md-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text dt\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeeling.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"fulltext\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApex delivers an unmistakably stiff, hyperresponsive ride that gives you a direct, intuitive connection to the foil.

If you’re chasing speed but still want a wing that supports your progression, this is the one built to let you open it up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e85 cm. Dialed in for riders who want total confidence in wing foiling, wave riding, and freeride flow, this design keeps you lockedin and in control when the water gets rowdy. The straighter midsection gives you clean, predictable power through every carve, while the specialized top airfoil cuts drag at deep lean angles so you can commit harder without worrying about ventilation.

The aggressive taper comes from extensive video analysis of how riders engage different mast zones across disciplines and conditions, then refined through flexpattern mapping and airfoil optimization. The payoff is a mast that stays composed through chop, resists ventilation when you’re pushing hard, and delivers a clean, connected feel that lets you ride with total confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"text-book\"\u003eThe Apex series stands apart because every mast is designed independently from the ground up. Each size gets its own sectional variation, taper, and performance priorities not a scaledup or scaleddown version of a single profile. That allows the 77 to focus on unpowered speed, glide, and maneuverability for downwind racing, performance surf, and wake foiling. The 85 is tuned as the allrounder for wing foiling, wave riding, and freestyle control, while the 95 is built for highspeed wingpowered riding where ventilation resistance, stability through chop, and control at deep lean angles or in big waves matter most.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"text-book\"\u003eAcross the lineup, the mast uses multiple airfoils along the span, each tuned for low submerged drag, strong ventilation resistance, and minimal spray drag during surface contact. Designed by Kane de Wilde, the leaner leading edge with thickness carried farther back helps the mast pierce the surface more cleanly, reducing spray and keeping the ride smoother and quieter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"text-book\"\u003eAbove the waterline, Apex incorporates a forwardswept design for structural reasons, aligning the carbon fiber with the downandforward load path riders generate while winging. This reduces twist and improves efficiency through the baseplate zone, keeping the mast feeling solid and predictable under heavy load. The trailing edge stays close to vertical with a subtle taper toward the bottom for clean release and stability.\u003cbr\u003eAll sizes feature a forwardoffset baseplate to reduce swing weight and create a more direct, connected feel to the foil.
