We set out to create a construction with the very lowest weight, best response and strongest build. The Brushed Carbon Sandwich technology we pioneered in SUP 10 years ago has been gradually improved year by year. Winning 8 out of 10 Gold medals in the ISA SUP Surf Worlds over the last 4 years may indicate the Innovation Quality obtained.
The sensational lightweight increases carving ability and acceleration.
LAMINATED IN THE STANCE
Highest grade 100g biaxial carbon wraps the full deck, rail and bottom.
Thin high-density PVC wraps the entire board with an extra strong PET standing reinforcement reduces resin uptake and increases the overall strength.
Paint pigment is infused into the resin during lamination, resulting in a lighter weight board, eliminates paint chipping and reduces the release of harmful paint toxins.
Shear resistant, fused and moulded individually to fit each and every Starboard board providing high strength at the lightest weight. Our moulded core technology produces zero EPS wastage.
An extra layer of 160g glass is laminated on the bottom for added durability and impact resistance.
For every board sold, Starboard plants 3 mangrove trees with Worldview International Foundation. Each Mighty Mangrove sinks down 673kg of VCS certified CO2 during its first 25 years.
Together, our 3 mangroves offset the boards Carbon Emissions 10 X over and fund local livelihoods projects in Myanmar.
Buy a board and we pick up 1.1 kg of beach/ ocean plastic trash – equivalent to the amount of plastic trash entering the ocean, per person, per year. Starboard balances this amount for our customers.
