Losing the bolted plate interface takes the last bit of softness out of the connection, so the board feels more directly tied to the foil underfoot — noticeable when you load hard through a turn or push into a pump. It stays forgiving enough for surf and SUP work rather than becoming a stiff, punishing race mast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSetup \/ Fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 73 is the natural all-rounder: enough length for clean wing and downwind riding while staying manageable in waves and shallow water. Step up to the 83 if you ride choppier water, want more clearance for kite and wind foiling, or simply want more stability at speed. Because the plate is laminated into the mast, this is a commitment to one board-mounting standard — if you switch between plate and Tuttle setups regularly, the modular Kraken remains the more flexible option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterials\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: full carbon with core\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSystem: Sabfoil Integrated System, one-piece laminated mast and plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnection: R8 mast-fuselage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLengths: 73 and 83cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSize Chart\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLength\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eChord (A\/B\/C)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eThickness (A\/B\/C)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePrice\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e73cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e730mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e137.8 \/ 116.8 \/ 110.8mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18.4 \/ 15.9 \/ 13.9mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e£819\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e83cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e830mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e137.8 \/ 113.8 \/ 110.8mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18.6 \/ 15.5 \/ 13.9mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e£829\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePairs Well With\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll need a compatible R8 \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/fuselage\"\u003efuselage\u003c\/a\u003e plus a front wing and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/stabiliser\"\u003estabiliser\u003c\/a\u003e to complete the foil, and a \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/covers\"\u003emast cover\u003c\/a\u003e is worth adding to protect the carbon in transit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy We Stock It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Kraken is the mast most of our customers end up on, because it does everything well rather than one thing brilliantly.
