Our aim was to design a mast base which is unlike anything else on the market and offers real unique features. Here is the outcome:

RELEASE OPTION

Have you always been annoyed having to unscrew the base from the board after the surf session with tired hands, just so the board fits into the board bag. For this problem in particular the iBASE 2.0 features a useful RELEASE OPTION for removing the connection joint by simply pulling the sand-resistant, stainless-steel U-pin.

Without the need for tools, you can even swap between a conventional Powerjoint or our revolutionary iTENDON in a matter of seconds depending on your preferences.

An additional advantage of this feature is that with a spare joint/tendon you are immediately ready for action again when worst comes to worst – without having to go through the effort of repairing the joint/tendon.

PERMA LOCK OPTION

For all safety nuts, the release button can now be fixed with a screw thus inhibiting the release function.

STUCK SOLUTION

Should the iBASE 2.0 ever become stuck to the board after long storage times, two holes now allow you to use a screwdriver as a lever to release the base with ease.

LOW PROFILE

So that the iBASE 2.0 can be installed or removed without the need for tools, we have decided to go for a central screw design. Although these designs are normally built relatively high, our engineers have found a solution for making the iBASE 2.0 the lowest base of its kind - close the gap!

2 PHASE WASHER PLATE

The exclusive washer plate is produced in a 2-phase over-moulding process (like an electric toothbrush)

- The upper side consists of a low friction PVC material effectively reducing the force necessary to tighten the iBASE 2.0 onto the board

- The bottom side is over-moulded using a special rubber-mixture to avoid any sliding on the board

All these additional features do not lead to any additional weight or sacrifice in durability. That's why we offer a 2 YEAR UNLIMITED WARRANTY (after online registration) – something no other bases offer!
