Windsurfing Mast Guide

Is a mast merely a stick that keeps your sail upright?

Not quite. It's actually the essential backbone of your rig.

Understanding the significance of your mast is crucial. It serves as the core foundation for your windsurfing gear. The forces from the sail, the vibrations from the board, and the effort you put in as a sailor are all interconnected through the mast.

Selecting a mast that doesn't align well with your sails and personal preferences can restrict your enjoyment and hinder your progress.

Considering the importance of the mast, it's essential to navigate through the various jargon and options available to avoid making the wrong purchase. We aim to simplify things on this page, offering guidance and explaining the theory behind mast bend curves, response, and construction.
