Anyone who rides AFS want tool free mast adjustment?
I am trying to get Konrad to make click nuts for AFS as they only make them for countersunk bolts now. They want some interest before they start a production run. Let me know if you are interested.
I heard that they had some warranty claims from people who had incorrectly mounted their masts with thee countersunk bolts that weren't seated correctly. If the bolt isn't seated it can come loose and put undue stress on the other mount points. More user-error than actual manufacturing or design flaw, but they decided to redesign it to make it idiot proof. My masts both have countersunk bolts and I have had zero issues.
I've often found myself having to bum bolts off people if I lose or forget one. Easy fix with a countersunk m8 but would be annoying to have a proprietary design that nobody in the parking lot has.
Agree. My countersunk bolts are great and while I totally understand the reasoning for the design change I hope they decide to switch back in the future.

Ah that looks good. Until now I carry a key in the pocket of my impact vest, but I need to hold this, which is not ideal when in the water. I'll order this.
I also have these click nuts and I'm quite happy with them. Bought in December 2025. So I ordered a second pair about a month ago in order to use for my pumpfoil board.
I placed the order, paid and received an order confirmation. However this has been a month ago and since it's radio silence, no tracking number, no nothing. I wrote them several e-mails, no response. Does anybody know if they are still in business or what is going on?
Off topic and slightly late to the party but I had one of these and couldn't get enough torque on the tiny little tool to undo tightly fastened bolts. Maybe I've just got weak thumbs. I ride with a foilbuddy now which is still small enough but provides way more leverage.
