Description

FOIL DRIVE Universal Mini Pod

SKU: FD283

A toolless, instant latching, universal motor pod that reduces drag, improves ride feel, and makes mast swaps fast and screw free.

The Universal Mini Pod redefines universal mounting through reduced surface area and drag, ease of use and ultimate compatibility. Install is simplified thanks to the toolless strap and latch system, the Mini Pod can be installed or removed in seconds, making it ideal for riders chasing performance enhancement while remaining fully removable and adaptable.

The low profile shape of the Mini Pod adopts the smaller form factor of integrated masts while remaining 100% removable, meaning it’s the perfect upgrade if you’re seeking full adaptability, simpler install and improvement to ride feel without committing to an integrated mast.

 

Details

A three part design features an Inner Pod that mounts to the V2 Motor, and a removable Outer Pod that intentionally deforms to the shape of your mast, much like the existing pod. These two components slide onto the mast and are then secured in position with a EPDM, Aramid Fibre reinforced Rubber Strap (3 Size options included).

The smaller size minimizes wetted area, reducing drag and turbulence commonly found in traditional universal mounts. Riders will notice improved motor traction, smoother surface motoring, easier take-offs, and cleaner recovery with touchdowns.
