I have a Slingshot dwarf and the H2 that we use for prone foiling and now my youngest son is using it for kiting. We have the two smaller masts and are looking for the 90cm or larger but there aren't any available in Aus that we can find. Was down the beach the other day and noticed the Cabrinha and North Masts look pretty much identical in plan shape any body got any idea whether they all are the same extrusion just anodized and labelled differently for the brands?

You'd need to check bolt position and the profile of the mast -- pull your plate and fuselage and see if they fit.

I know that the original Naish and LF masts were identical, and several brands did indeed share supplier and just "paint" them company colors.

I wouldn't be sure of the Moses Slingshot cross over, best to ask foils port.

Hey Horey,

Moses and Slingshot do have some cross over. Slingshot Ghost Whisperer is simply older designs of Moses masts and wings. I suspect the Slingshot masts were used in the Moses Alu setups. However, I believe Moses may have ceased with the Alloy masts.

Love to replace SS alu mast with carbon...
The infinity setup I have is g8 for me except the mast is too...oooo.... Heavy..
Is there a carbon replacement..compatible???

If moses carbon mast can replace this it would fantastic... Else will abandon soon for Armstrong kit..
With weak tendon/ muscles still after bust collarbone too much negotiating surf break in lighter winds..

I almost had to get help trying to get out of front entry wettie I was trying on in shop on W/E.. Ouch..
Cheers

Even different years of the same brand can trip you up, 2019 Naish mast won't fit a 2018 Naish foil, slight profile change.

I am pretty sure the Moses alloy are compatible with the Slingshot. Moses Chord is a bit deeper (116mm vs 114mm) but the space between the crews is the same (50mm).

Looks like Foilsports in VIC have the 95cm Moses in stock.

There is an adaptor to fit a Slingshot mast into a Moses fuselage so I doubt they work the other way round.

It's to adapt the Slinshot alloy to the fuselage that normally goes with the Moses carbon mast. Moses have 2 fuselage. One to suit carbon mast and one to suit their alloy mast.

Having said that, I haven't compared the masts profiles of Slinshot and Moses alloy. Slingshot connection system on their larger wings has a snug fit to suit their mast profile, if Moses is just slighly thicker then it won't fit.
