Severne RDM RED

FAQ

What makes the Severne RDM Red so lightweight?

The RDM Red is made from high-quality T800 carbon from Toray, making it one of the lightest masts on the market. The 400 weighs just about 1.3 kg and is still robust enough for use in the waves.

For which sails is the RDM Red recommended?

Severne recommends the RDM Red for wave and freestyle sails. It provides the perfect bend curve and delivers noticeably more performance with all wave and freestyle sails in the Severne range.

What sizes and IMCS values are available for the RDM Red?

The Severne RDM Red is available in lengths of 370, 400, 430 and 460 cm. The corresponding IMCS values are 17, 19, 21 and 25, so you can easily match the right size to your sail.

What do the Severne curve and the 7-point measurement mean?

Severne designs the bend curve of the masts at at least 7 measurement points. This precise Severne curve ensures consistent, balanced performance and is the basis of every Severne rig setup.

What is SlipLok and why is it useful?

SlipLok is an alternating texture structure in the boom area that increases friction. This prevents the mast base from slipping as easily, so you do not have to over-tighten the mast base head as much and the mast is subjected to less stress.

How tightly should I tighten the mast base head on the mast?

Do not apply more than 10 to 15 kg of pressure to the lever when tightening the mast base head. Otherwise, tightening it too much will lead to damage to the mast.

What is included in the delivery of the RDM Red?

The Severne RDM Red is delivered with a suitable mast bag, so you can transport and store the mast safely.

What is the large EVA clamping plug on the RDM Red used for?

The oversized EVA clamping plug reliably seals the mast and makes it easy to clean the inside of the top section when assembling the mast.
