Does anyone have any Intel on whether Neil Pryde is working on longer (90 cm +) aluminum masts? Seems like everyone has a 90-100 cm offering for wing or kite or wind foiling, will NP do so too in 2020. Their alu masts are great bang for the buck and I really prefer the 90cm length for winging in the ocean swell and chop.
Happy holidays everyone! Rob

No it's just the 82cm which is available right now . I use that on the Wing Ding and pretty comfortable on that . You can contact Reg at Windsurfing Perth and he ships the 82 for around $235 Australia wide . You can also pick up one of the older NP Windfoil rigs super cheap and trim the Tuttle head to make it a 90 cm.

Thanks for the info Piros. Can you just chop the Tuttle head off RS Flight and good to insert/bolt on glide top plate, or is there a bunch of rework to do?

No the plate end is much harder , need to notch out for plate insert inside the mast . You can just cut insert off and weld the plate on . Very simple and fast . I did one a year ago and still going strong .
