Axis Aluminum Mast and Base Plate Cover

The Axis Aluminum Mast and Base Plate Cover is a protective sleeve designed to fit over Axis 19mm aluminum foil masts during storage and transport. Manufactured by Axis Foils, a New Zealand-based hydrofoil brand, this cover slides over the full length of the mast while the base plate remains installed, eliminating the need to disassemble the base plate before bagging your gear. The cover can also stay in place when the fuselage is attached, giving riders flexibility in how much of the foil assembly they break down between sessions.

Available in seven lengths from 450mm to 1050mm, each size corresponds directly to an Axis aluminum mast in the current lineup. This ensures a snug fit regardless of which mast length a rider uses.

• Compatibility: Axis 19mm aluminum foil masts
• Available sizes: 450mm, 600mm, 680mm, 750mm, 820mm, 900mm, 1050mm
• Price range: $38 USD (450mm) to $65 USD (1050mm)
• Category: Gear bag / protective accessory

This cover suits any rider using an Axis aluminum mast who wants to protect the mast and base plate from dings, scratches, and corrosion during transport or storage. Whether you are a beginner on a shorter 450mm or 600mm mast or an experienced foiler riding the 900mm or 1050mm lengths for downwind and speed sessions, the cover adds a layer of protection that can extend the life of your equipment.

Riders who frequently travel to different launch sites or load gear in and out of vehicles will get the most use from this accessory. Because it stays on with the fuselage attached, it is particularly practical for those who prefer to keep the mast and fuselage connected and only remove the wings for transport.

Within the Axis Foils accessory catalog, this cover sits alongside other protective and hardware items such as the Axis board bags, fuselage covers, and replacement base plates. It is specific to the aluminum mast range and sized to match each available mast length in the current Axis 19mm aluminum lineup, which spans from the compact 450mm mast used for learning through the 1050mm mast built for downwind and speed foiling.

Axis also offers carbon masts at a higher price point; riders on those setups should verify compatibility before purchasing, as this cover is listed specifically for the aluminum mast line. For riders using competing brands like Armstrong or Lift, this cover is not cross-compatible due to differences in mast profile and base plate geometry. It is a brand-specific accessory designed to pair with the Axis aluminum foil system.
