It’s the next giant leap in foiling performance. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHigh aspect foils = higher loads on masts.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring early ART foil testing, the AXIS research team quickly realised that higher aspect ratios and broader foil spans applied more bending and twisting forces to the mast. So while ART foils were a game-changer even on their existing masts, they knew there was still huge untapped potential to be realised.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd so began a whole new development project, and they couldn’t be more excited at the result. With a new power profile and carefully considered material selection and placement, AXIS Power Carbon delivers both superior stiffness with next-level strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpting for a one-piece design, AXIS avoided the flow\/drag and jointing issues associated with multi-part mast constructions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditionally and more importantly, testing proves that maximum loading is concentrated close to the baseplate and this is why the mast tapers thicker at this point to handle the loads. Any joins or two-piece construction at this high load area would destroy the integrity of the mast. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA revised fuselage connection design maximises the size of the attachment point to achieve a perfect fit to the fuselage reducing any chance of unwanted movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a positive connected feel, direct drive, immediate feedback and ultimate control. High aspect foils perform as they should, feel and control enter an entirely new realm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1057\/2818\/0573\/files\/taken_too-failure-comparison_600x600_7f5d577d-a9df-43b2-abd0-7f515a66c4e3.jpg?v=1784972617\" style=\"width: 600px;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe new \u003cb\u003eHigh Modulus Carbon\u003c\/b\u003e fibre used in the mast layup is considerably stiffer and stronger than the regular carbon fibre used in conventional constructions.
