This new construction uses high modulus carbon to deliver an even more direct, super-stiff feel with the same Katana focus on speed, strength, and precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"58\" data-end=\"294\"\u003eThe Katana 830 High Modulus Carbon Mast is the next evolution of our original Katana 830 construction—built for riders who want the most locked-in, high-performance feel possible. This updated version introduces a new construction using high modulus carbon, delivering an even more direct connection with reduced twist and flex under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"674\" data-end=\"1042\"\u003eThe Katana concept was inspired by traditional Japanese sword making. To forge the toughest blades, swordsmiths combined an outer layer of hard steel with a tougher core for strength. In the same spirit, Katana uses advanced carbon layups to create a mast that feels super-stiff, built for real-world riding, not just lab numbers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1044\" data-end=\"1321\"\u003eCombined with one-piece construction and a slightly thicker performance profile, Katana is tuned to reduce twist and flex for a more precise ride—especially noticeable with larger wings where mast stiffness directly affects control, pump, and top-end confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1323\" data-end=\"1614\"\u003eKatana also features\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eslotted holes designed for countersunk titanium hardware for cleaner alignment and fitment. The taper-lock mast-to-fuse connection improves engagement and helps eliminate play by holding the mast mechanically—so you’re not relying on bolts alone to carry load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1616\" data-end=\"1707\"\u003eCover included — every Unifoil mast ships with a protective cover.\u003cbr data-start=\"1682\" data-end=\"1685\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBolts sold separately.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1709\" data-end=\"2173\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1709\" data-end=\"1735\"\u003ePerformance highlights\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1735\" data-end=\"1738\"\u003e• Updated from the original Katana 830 with a new high modulus carbon construction\u003cbr data-start=\"1820\" data-end=\"1823\"\u003e• Super-stiff feel for maximum control and response\u003cbr data-start=\"1874\" data-end=\"1877\"\u003e• Thicker chord\/profile to reduce twist and flex\u003cbr data-start=\"1925\" data-end=\"1928\"\u003e• Direct, locked-in connection for high-speed precision\u003cbr data-start=\"1983\" data-end=\"1986\"\u003e• One-piece construction for strength and performance\u003cbr data-start=\"2039\" data-end=\"2042\"\u003e• Slotted, countersunk hardware interface for cleaner fitment\u003cbr data-start=\"2103\" data-end=\"2106\"\u003e• Taper-lock mast-to-fuse connection for a more secure, no-play fit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2427\" data-end=\"2719\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2427\" data-end=\"2439\"\u003eBest for\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2439\" data-end=\"2442\"\u003e• High-aspect setups where stiffness improves performance and confidence\u003cbr data-start=\"2514\" data-end=\"2517\"\u003e• Winging, downwind, pump, and fast surf foiling\u003cbr data-start=\"2565\" data-end=\"2568\"\u003e• Riders who want less twist under load and a more direct feel\u003cbr data-start=\"2630\" data-end=\"2633\"\u003e• Anyone upgrading from the original Katana construction to the new high modulus build\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2721\" data-end=\"2833\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2175\" data-end=\"2222\"\u003eSpecs (Katana 830 High Modulus Carbon Mast)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2222\" data-end=\"2225\"\u003e• Length: 830 mm\u003cbr data-start=\"2241\" data-end=\"2244\"\u003e• Average weight: 2.21 kg (4.88 lb) \u003cem data-start=\"2280\" data-end=\"2301\"\u003e(may vary slightly)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2301\" data-end=\"2304\"\u003e• Hardware: slotted holes accept countersunk titanium hardware\u003cbr data-start=\"2366\" data-end=\"2369\"\u003e• Optional: titanium wingnuts for adjustments on the fly\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2721\" data-end=\"2833\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e(Bolts sold separately)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Unifoil Hydrofoils","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44306436096218,"sku":"MK8HM","price":949.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/6473\/7754\/files\/LXS00024.png?v=1769202348","url":"https:\/\/uni-foil.com\/products\/katana-830-high-modulus-carbon-mast-with-cover","provider":"Unifoil Hydrofoils","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
