The Loft's top priority is windsurfing performance. The Loft's philosophy is to maximize wind range while minimizing the number of sail lines presented to the market... function over fashion, efficient simplicity.
Performance on the water is directly influenced by the carbon content of your mast. Greater carbon content = optimum performance. Carbon turbo-charges your windsurfing experience. Performance you can feel...
All Loft Masts are 100% high-modulus carbon pre-preg:
the fastest possible reflex-response,
the lightest possible weight,
the greatest possible rig stability... windsurfing unlimited.
Utilizing 100% high modulus carbon pre-preg, Loftmasts are built to last...
Loftmasts are carefully controlled in design and construction to have "constant-curve" flex character. All Loftmasts measure 64% bend at base (lower 1/4), 76% bend at tip (upper 1/4).
The LoftMast range 2006 is quality and simplicity.
Advanced construction = Advanced performance
Autoclave processes The LoftMasts are constructed using carbon fiber pre-pregs which are cured using temperature-specific autoclave processes. This process produces masts with the highest possible laminate qualities; no air entrapment for maximized mast integrity. Carbon fibers layers The LoftMasts include an inner spiral of carbon fibers for compression strength. Three layers of unidirectional carbon fibers run longitudinally (without crimp) for maximum compression strength. The LoftMasts production process allows for fine adjustment of the spacing and distribution of the carbon fibers in the three intermediate layers. Adjusting specific fiber-layups allow our mast flex-curves to be fine tuned and achieve perfect mast-sail compatibility. Integrated-ferrule The LoftMasts are produced with an integrated-ferrule at the top/bottom joint. This method eliminates the possibility of mast pre-bend... the mast flex-curve remains accurate and your windsurfing performance is absolutely optimal.
