Electric foil assist is one of the biggest developments in modern foiling, and Duotone Foil Assist is one of the most flexible systems available — especially if you already own a foil and want to add assist without rebuilding your entire setup.
One of the most common questions we get at Worthing Watersports is: “What foil brands does Duotone Foil Assist work with?” Below, we’ll break down compatibility for the Aluminium (AL) system vs the D/LAB Carbon system, and link you to the correct adapters.
Duotone Foil Assist (Aluminium Mast) – Compatible Foil Brands
The Duotone Foil Assist AL system (including the Foil Assist Mast AL and Foil Assist Cruise Mast AL) is designed for riders who want maximum compatibility. With the correct fuselage adapter, you can pair the aluminium Foil Assist system with a wide range of popular foil brands.
Compatible foil brands with the Aluminium (AL) Foil Assist:
- Duotone
- Axis
- Gong
- Lift
- North
- Code Foils
- AFS
- SAB Foil
- KT Foils
Important: The brand-specific fuselage adapter is not included with the Foil Assist system and must be purchased separately. Compatibility applies only to aluminium masts.

If I Buy the Carbon Duotone D/LAB Foil Assist, What Brands Does That Work With?
The Duotone D/LAB Foil Assist uses a carbon mast system focused on premium performance — lighter weight, higher stiffness, and a super clean integrated feel. Because the construction is different to the aluminium system, compatibility is more specific.
Compatible foil brands with the D/LAB Carbon Foil Assist:
- Duotone – no adapter needed
- Armstrong – adapter required
If you’re running a Duotone foil, the D/LAB Foil Assist connects directly with no additional adapter. For Armstrong, you’ll need the dedicated Armstrong e-fuselage adapter (linked below).

Final Thoughts
Duotone Foil Assist stands out not just for performance, but for how many foil brands it can work with. If you’re on an Axis, Gong, Lift, North, Code Foils, AFS, SAB Foil, KT or Duotone setup, the Aluminium Foil Assist plus the correct adapter is the usual route.
If you want the lightest, cleanest premium setup and you’re on Duotone (no adapter) or Armstrong (adapter required), the D/LAB Carbon Foil Assist is the one to look at.
