2022 Cabrinha :02 Fusion Alloy Top Plate MKII

The 2022 Cabrinha :02 Fusion Alloy Top Plate MKII is the mast-to-board connection plate within Cabrinha's modular Fusion foil system. It serves as the interface that locks the alloy mast into the board's track or tuttle box, and its rigidity directly affects how efficiently rider input transfers through the foil assembly. This MKII generation updated the Fusion platform's hardware with refinements to machining tolerances and corrosion resistance. As a standalone component, the top plate is sold separately for riders building or repairing a Fusion alloy foil setup.

The plate is precision CNC-machined from anodized 6061-T6 aluminum, an aircraft-grade alloy chosen for its combination of light weight, stiffness, and saltwater durability. Helicoil inserts protect the threaded bolt holes from corrosion and cross-threading over repeated assembly cycles, which is a practical detail for gear that gets broken down and reassembled regularly at the beach. The overall profile is shaped to reduce drag where the plate meets the mast junction.

• Material: CNC-machined, anodized 6061-T6 aluminum
• Thread inserts: Helicoil
• Compatibility: All Cabrinha Fusion alloy masts
• Interchangeable wings: Works with Cabrinha X-Series and H-Series front wings and stabilizers
• Sold as: Top plate only (mast, fuselage, and wings sold separately)

This top plate is aimed at riders already invested in the Cabrinha Fusion alloy foil ecosystem. If you need a replacement plate due to wear or damage, or if you're assembling a custom Fusion setup piece by piece, this is the part that completes the mast-to-board connection. It suits any skill level that rides a Fusion alloy foil, from intermediate progression riders to experienced foilers.

Cabrinha offers two plate options for the Fusion alloy mast: this standard top plate and the FQR (Fast Quick Release) system that allows tool-free mast attachment. Riders who prefer a conventional bolted connection — or who don't want the added cost of the FQR mechanism — will find this standard plate straightforward and reliable.

Within Cabrinha's Fusion MKII component catalog, the Alloy Top Plate sits alongside the Fusion Alloy Mast (available in lengths from 40 cm to 85 cm), the Alloy Fuselage, and the various X-Series and H-Series wing sets. The modular design lets riders mix mast lengths and wing combinations while keeping the same top plate and fuselage. Cabrinha also produces a carbon mast option for the Fusion system; however, this particular top plate is specified for the alloy mast line. Riders considering a carbon upgrade would need to verify plate compatibility with that mast variant. Compared to buying a complete Fusion foil kit, purchasing the top plate individually is primarily relevant for replacement or piecemeal builds rather than first-time foil purchases.
