PLATINUM SDM

Standard Diameter 48mm

The PLATINUM series was developed for World Cup pros and gearheads. It represents our most individual and dynamic line, with lengths from 370 to 430cm focusing on Wave and Freestyle, those with 460cm and above on Race. Of course, this series is manufactured using the aerospace prepreg autoclave process, the most precise and sophisticated technology currently available. Pressures of up to 10 tons result in an extremely homogeneous carbon-resin mixture, and reduce the resin content to a minimum. This is what delivers the sheer unbelievable reflex and durability properties of this series. The new white coating made of 100% abrasion-resistant polyamide protects the carbon surface against mechanical impact, and increases fracture resistance by approx. 20%! Naturally, the PLATINUM models are also sealed with a white surface that prevents heat from reaching critical areas, and avoids thermal overstress.

PLATINUM RDM

Reduced Diameter 32mm

The ultimate needle mast. Thanks to a new geometry with a larger top diameter, the PLATINUM RDM is even more dynamic than its predecessor. As a result, the rig benefits not only from the aerodynamic advantages of the smaller diameter but also from the greater flexing power of the needle shape. Of course, this top model also features both the polyamide base coating and the “cooler” white surface.
