The Waterline’s shape hand hull design is focused on achieving maximum speed and stability with no splash or sound.
At 75% speed, this hull is faster than our race boards, so in essence, for most riders, it’s the quickest ride ever.
The narrowed nose gradually widens into a more parallel mid-section to maximise stability where you stand.
• Velcro loop to attach your paddle.
• Easier to carry, the board simply hangs effortlessly on the shoulder, freeing up your hand to multi-task, hold your coffee, or phone.
• When not in use, the bungee sits flat on the board so it doesn’t drag in the water.
(can be purchased after-market for Lite Tech)
From the mid-section, the tail is kept wide to maintain stability when stepping back to turn and holds enough buoyancy to carry gears.
A defined rail edge helps restrict water wrapping onto the deck and sheers water off the nose.
Inspired from years of success in Windsurfing
• The cutaway at the tail increases the speed by reducing drag from the narrow wetted surface area.
• Allows you to increase speed as the water feels a narrower planing surface yet maintains stability from the full tail outline.
• Acts as a stabiliser, when conditions get choppy, the deck’s outline catches and stops the board from rolling.
Lowers the paddlers centre of gravity for increased stability and control.
• Positioned just in front of the feet making it easy and fast to access any gears.
• Recessing compartment improves aerodynamics for a faster glide, limits water flushing in and makes it more secure to stow gears.
The deck is precisely angled to let water flow efficiently out of the tail within just a couple strokes of paddling.
• Soft EVA deck pad with crocodile texture provides a comfortable grip when paddling.
• Die-cut standing marks indicate the ideal standing position to optimise the smoothest glide.
Is used on the tail of the board for traction when stepping back to turn or when accessing gears.
on nose and tail of the board
• 4 x bungee inserts help secure gear and supplies on the nose.
• With 2 extra bungee inserts on the tail, perfect for carrying gear for long distance paddlers.
Single centre fin positioned far back to the tail for straight line tracking.

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.
The Waterline has an average carbon footprint of 120 kg per board.
