Any other feedback (quality, defects, breakage or other problems) on One Ocean masts, and more specifically SS masts, or comparisons with Axis masts?

Hey FB, I have recently bought a 78 SSS & super impressed by it. I have a mate that has one that's a few years old & he's had no issues!Quality is outstanding, probably the best mast I've had - my last 2 masts were the 76cm Duotone Skinny 2.0 & Code 80+ masts.
It's nice & stiff, skinny, the mast/fuse connection is tight as & it has the mast bolt slots that I missed on the previously mentioned masts.

Had to wait a little while for it, as they often sell out & only made in limited quantities.

Okay, thanks for your feedback !

Weighing over 110kg and dedicated to wing foiling, I'm leaning towards a SS mast. If anyone has any feedback on this version, I'd appreciate it.

There aren't any rubber pads under the base plate!?

No, you are correct no protection for the board/mast interface - if your reading this Jacko - imo it would be great if you could add this feature. Some prefer it this way, the latest F4 masts are the same. Pic of the underside of my SSS mast base below for reference.

I have a 84 SSS with a lift adapter that isn't that good as it doesn't have the wedge fitting and relies on the 2 -6mm bolts holding it and I should switch to Axis . It's very stiff but very heavy . Would I buy another one
YES

Haha noted, let me see if I can track those pads down and maybe just offer them as an aftermarket product for the mast. Shouldn't be to hard to sort out.

YES



If for some reason the adaptor is loose you could just recast the mast foot to make it a perfect fit again and then it will be super tight and perfect and won't rely on the screws a much.

Recasting the foot is super easy. I have a full step by step write up on this if anyone ever wants to try.

Weight on the masts is 1.9-2kg for the SSS and 2-2.1kg for the SS Approx. Masts are pretty much solid carbon cured in Autoclave so quite hard to make super light without taking away some strength. Always something to work on though for the future.

3 months and 50 + sessions on the 84 SS and it is really solid and super efficient - def improvement from my 90cm Axis HM mastAlso went the SS as I'm over 100kg kitted up.
No flex at all with this mast, don't think you can go wrong at the price.
Make sure to get the mast bag - it is well made, holds the fuse and stab as well.

Just curious, is One Ocean going to offer a tuttle mast in the future. Now with a few brands building adjustable tuttle boards.

This is already on our you ride you decide page and it's something we could do for sure but would be keen to see how many really want it which is why we have it here www.oneoceansportsaustralia.com/one-foils/p/future-kickstart-program

If we get 10 keen then I will green light it no worries ??

Yes, it would be nice to have a pad for the board/mast interface ??

Jacko has upgraded the 78 and 84 SSS masts with a version 2. A bit thinner again, new lower drag foil profile and new layup.....cool....
