PATENTED SHAPE TECHNOLOGY

The all-new Hyper Nut design is the 3rd evolution of this favorite compact shape that is proven to offer a skatey and reactive ride like no other.

The deeper tail shape combined with new fin angles give you more grip and bite through turns, while the narrower rounded nose is less likely to catch through turns.

NARROWER ROUNDED NOSE

Limits you catching the nose through turns and is easier to paddle out through white water.

WIDE AND SHORT NOSE OUTLINE

• Increases stability and speed on the wave as you can engage the entire rail length.

• Easier to pivot turn & fit into smaller sections of the waves.

• Extra stability and pop when paddling out over whitewater.

THE INVERTED NUT RAILS

Provide insane acceleration and a pivot point for tight turning.

STRAIGHT OUTLINE

EXTENDS THE WATERLINE

• Providing speed that is comparable to a longer board.

• A curved outline has less rail engaged at one time.

DEEPER SWALLOW TAIL

Gives you more bite through the turns.

SLIGHT HIP TAIL

Act as a pivot point to drive through turns.

THIN RAILS TOWARDS THE TAIL

• Easier to engage the rail on the wave with less foot pressure.

• As the Hyper Nut has such a wide tail it is essential for rail thickness to be responsive in turns.

FLAT STANDING AREA

Adds stability and makes for easy rail-to-rail transitions.

FLAT ROCKER

Produces speed, helps get into waves easily and adds stability.

CHANNEL BOTTOM SHAPE

• Pro rocker down the center of the board for tight pocket turning.

• Creates a flat spot in front of the fins for extra acceleration.

FIN ANGLES

The front fins have more angle helping you to engage earlier and have more grip on the wave, while the rear fins are straighter giving you more drive and speed

FIN SET UP

• 3.7 rear side fins make it much easier to slide the tail for more radical turns with less effort.

• Quad fin set up uses 4 side fins and gives fast acceleration and instant down the line speed as it does not have a drag from a centre fin.

STARLITE

THE STRONGEST RAIL EVER TESTED

• Ultra-durable, scratch and impact resistant woven 200g twill azure rail protection.

• The combination of twin T-stringers deck and bottom to protect against total breakage. The T-stringers are positioned close to the rail working like an i-beam to endure heavy drops and strong wipeouts.

• Starlite now features a full deck of 0.6mm Australian pine wood which is sandwiched between 2 glass outer skins, increasing the overall total breakage strength and reducing the weight due to lower resin absorption.

LIMITED SERIES

TIMELESS LOOK, SOLID PERFORMANCE

Twin T-stringers made from glass fibre are positioned on the deck and bottom of the board close to the rail, providing a massive increase in the overall strength against total breakage in surf.
An additional wide layer of 200g glass wraps the rails for higher strength against paddle impact and further reinforces the overall strength against buckling.
The deck features reinforced biaxial glass and Australian pine, to resist heel dents and impact from the standing area.
The nose and tail are wrapped in multiple layers of glass fiber for further strength on these impact zones.

Available Sizes

8’0″ x 31.5″ / 135 L

Length: 8’0” / 244 cm.
