Each Foil Set from the GA Foils collection can be adjusted to your demands thanks to the wide range of interchangeable spare parts. This allows you to tune your basic set for different conditions, riding styles and skill levels without having to replace the complete foil. Just change the front wing, fuselage, mast or box adapter according to your requirements and enjoy the new characteristics of your foil.

CARBON AND ALUMINIUM MASTS
High-quality carbon and aluminium masts set a new standard in their realm. The Hybrid aluminium masts provide an unbeatable price-performance ratio and can be equipped with Deep Tuttle, Double US Plate and Powerbox adapters for different kinds of fin boxes in your board. Carbon of the highest quality is used for the production of our Mach 1 and Phantom carbon masts, which impress with their superior stiffness and lightness.

All GA Foil Sets can be tuned with aluminium fuselages of various lengths that are compatible with different sizes of front and back wings. Both the Mach 1 and Hybrid can be equipped with their respective 72cm, 82cm, 85cm and 90cm fuselages, which differ in control, speed potential and agility. The Phantom Foil suits the 100cm or 110cm fuselage for either higher top speed or increased control.
