The Dynafiber Cardan Mast Base EU is a mast base with a mechanical cardan joint. Unlike bases with tendon or rubber, it does not flex: it rotates and tilts freely up to 90° in any direction, without any resistance.
Main features
- Very easy to rig: the joint offers no resistance, making it easier to attach the sail to the board in the water.
- No material fatigue: being mechanical, there is no risk of tendon breakage or rubber deterioration.
- Ideal for inflatable boards: it does not transmit excessive leverage to the mast track of inflatable windSUP boards.
- Perfect for schools and children: the sail can be recovered and moved with less effort.
- Attaches via Euro Pin and includes an integrated safety cord.

Q&A – Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why use a cardan base on an inflatable windSUP?
A: A rigid joint transmits a lot of leverage to the mast track of an inflatable board; the cardan joint eliminates this leverage and protects the board.
Q: Is it suitable for freeride planing?
A: It is designed primarily for learning, windSUP, and inflatable boards. For sports freeriding, bases with a Boge joint or tendon are more suitable.
Q: Is it compatible with my extension?
A: Yes, with Euro Pin extensions. It is not compatible with US Cup extensions.
Q: Is the cardan joint available as a replacement?
A: Yes, the Sideon Cardan Joint is available as a replacement on ZZSURF.
