About Recharge
After being a pro-windsurfer first in freestyle and then in slalom Tine Slabe was involved in quite a few projects in windsurfing. Finally he decided to use his knowledge and bring on the market affordable yet superb products straight to the client’s home.
Our main goal is durability. Of course we care about performance, but our focus is durability so that the masts will last.
This is one of the reasons why we have decided to make the masts 96% carbon for performance and we use 4% of other materials to add the durability. Furthermore, after many years of tests and tries we have found out that some glass fibres in the mast give it the right flexibility and softness in the rider’s hands, so the feeling of riding such a mast is more comfortable and consequently many times faster.
Technology of mast production:
- Carbon percentage 96%
- Build in mandrel wrapping technology
- Using only first quality carbon pre-preg
- certification of the carbon fibre quality and the resin content consistency
- with autoclave consistency
- Constant curve bend

To bring some funkiness and soul back to the sport and to make things more clear we draw on the RDM line that we have called the Soul - dolphins and on the SDM line that we have called Fast - sharks. We did not do this just for the nice design, but if you manage to bring your kids or wife to the windy beach ;) and they help you rigging, you can ask you kid to bring you from the car the two sticks with the pink dolphin instead the RDM 400 that most probably they would not know what it is.
