// length specific carbon contentThe anatomy of the Matrix masts.
NeilPryde Matrix masts take their inspiration from humans. Just as the spine forms the critical
load centre for body movement and posture, a good mast acts as a pivotal vertebrae to the sail,
maintaining optimum aerofoil with stable, clean and predictable power. Out there, it’s the
difference between a wing and a prayer.
Stiffness, strength, flexibility and sensitivity. Almost impossibly, Matrix is all of these
and more. Matrix masts are hard-wired with Progressive Flex Bend Curve - a kind
of artificial intelligence built in to react dynamically to changes in wind strength
and direction. Matrix shares your instinct for self preservation, only it’s
reflexes are faster than yours. Now, even in the worst conditions,
it’s nice to know you are not alone.
Because every Pryde sail is engineered around a specific flex
curve and rigidity, you are correct in thinking that optimum
performance comes when NeilPryde sails and NeilPryde masts
are combined. Together, you’ll get “the feeling” at a whole
new level.
- Outside diameter sized in between the X3 and X9 mast with a moderate wall thickness
- Construction Process: Filament Winding
- Carbon content: 50%-100% (length specific)
- For those looking for a high-performance mast that has great compatibility with all sails, in all conditions
