MAX 396 BATTERY
A unique balance of weight and runtime.
The smaller size keeps the system lighter and more responsive underfoot resulting in more natural through turns, easier take-off, and a more lively ride when pumping between sections or connecting waves. With less mass/swing weight in the front of the unit, the board feels easier to turn, pump, redirect, and unweight. For pumping, surfing, downwinding, wing, and parawinging, this makes a noticeable difference.
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.
Why Choose the High Power MAX Sport 396 Battery?
The High Power MAX Sport 396 Battery is ideal for riders who want a lighter, more responsive feel with an increase in runtime compared to that of the original Sport Battery (Not High Power).It helps keep your MAX setup compact, lower drag, easier to pump, and more responsive through turns, while adding meaningful capacity for longer and more versatile sessions. For surf, winging, parawinging, downwinding, and lighter assist focused setups, it is one of the best ways to make an existing MAX kit feel more lively, efficient, and performance focused.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Will the Mini Pod fit my mast?
The Mini Pod is designed to fit almost every mast on the market. Three strap sizes combined with a 7-position ladder adjustment system on the Inner Pod give you a wide range of fitment options. Most masts use the Medium strap. If your mast falls outside these dimensions or has an unusual shape, we recommend visiting your nearest dealer to check fitment in person.
Do I need to tape the cable?
Yes. The included Mast Cable Guide helps route your motor cable neatly, but you’ll also need electrical tape (not included) to secure it to the mast. This is important for a smooth, vibration-free ride and to keep the cable clear of the propellers. Check the system manual for full taping instructions.
