Dumb question so here goes...

I am looking at getting a longer (95cm) mast for my 2020 Naish 1150 set up. Windgenuity and a heap of the kite/surf foil stores have the Naish "Jet" masts in varying lengths but I'm wondering what the compatibility is with the windsurf foil? In other words, are they a universal size that will fit the Naish Tuttle adaptor and fuselage or are they a different profile for non-wind foil setups?

Will plan to call Windgenuity tomorrow but would appreciate anyone's experience with this type of mast.

I'm interested as well. S25 looks like it has an add on plate to match s25 fuze, but does it fit older fuze without the add on plate or with?
I just ordered a '20 long fuze, not an s25, for my '19 mast and wings.

Just found this on the inter-webby thing...

Will simply call Windgenuity tomorrow to confirm the "S25" and "Jet" profiles.

Looks like a mast bottom cap is needed to mate to S25 fuze. Never seen one for sale

I've been using the S26 95 cm mast and it is compatible with the older fuselage.. Great mast.

That bottom cap is to just seal off the mast for using the mast only on a SUP board.

Both Naish 2020 jet deep tuttle mount and the smaller one, the Naish 2020 jet tuttle mount will fit 2020 jet masts. Botht the 2020 Naish jet surf fuselage and 2020 Naish Windsurf fuselage will fit Naish 2020 jet masts.

I ride an 1150 on an 85cm 2020 jet mast that i cut down from 95cm. A jig saw, metal file and a vice to hold the mast was all that was needed. Then you can tap new threads in the pre drilled holes than run the full length of mast. Just need a tap and die set which you can get from bunnings. This is handy to be able to do if you decide you don't like or need 95cm of mast.

I think the S25 (2021) Jet mast have a different profile to the 2020 model. As long as everything you are using is 2020 it will fit together.

Was using the 70 for 1.5 seasons, bought a 90 and tried it twice, decide to get the 65, which I now use with the 79 fuze, 310 rear, and either 600 or 1220 front wings.
Thinking of '19 1220 to replace the much heavier '18.

Great info y'all. I have 65cm Naish mast and am looking for a 70cm or 75cm. Just in case any of you are looking to unload. I found an older thread that mentioned Takuma masts will work with Naish, but maybe it had changed and is no longer compatible. Does anyone one know? Thanks!!

I have the older 70 and a '20 65. Other than sealed, I cannot tell difference.
Also have 90, which is seldom used due to low water.
If you have breach problem, flip your '19 rear wing upside down.
