Touring Inflatable

An Explorer’s Favourite Transportation

The overall balanced glide experience and premium features are what have made Starboard’s Touring paddle boards become the world’s highest-rated by magazines and customers’ favourite worldwide.

The wider nose and squarer tail make the Touring inflatable paddle board more stable, especially for harsh conditions like side chop and moderate wind.

The Rail Edge Technology effectively releases water at the tail and reduces drag by creating a laminar flow behind the board. The Welded Rail Technology mechanically joins the deck and hull, making it a stronger and longer-lasting longer iSUP.

THE OUTLINE SHAPE

The boards have straight outline and relative narrow midsection, so you can keep the paddle closet to the board. This makes you feel more comfortable and stable while you also track better and glide faster.

ROLL TECHNOLOGY

• Pack the inflatable board together with the pump and paddle into a 33% smaller bag.

• The Roll bag features both roller wheels and hiking straps for travel convenience.

• The Roll Technology is now available only with Deluxe Lite boards.

VOLUMINOUS NOSE AND SQUARER TAIL

It helps you pop through chop, carry some gear and increase the boards stability, while the squared tail creates a platform to make fun step back turns.

MULTIPLE CARRY HANDLES

• For the heavy duty explorers to make the transport of the boards easier, especially if they are fully loaded.

• All our Touring boards are equipped with the tail handle and the center carry handle.

• There is an extra handle on the nose on all boards except Wave and Blue Wave

• On all 14’0″ Deluxe boards, have handles on the rails, next to the cargo area, as well as on the nose.

CHOOSE YOUR SIZE

German SUP Mag

TESTED 12’6“ x 30“ DDC

“The Starboard Touring Deluxe 12’6” epitomises what a real touring iSUP should do. The Deluxe Touring board can carry lots of weight and is shaped for easy paddling and good speed. And having Starboard’s Double Chamber technology in it too, makes the board the safest inflatable board the market has ever seen… good job Starboard!”

10 X Climate Positive

For every board Starboard plants 3 mangrove trees with Worldview International Foundation.

Each tree absorbs 673kg of CO2 during its first 25 years.

50% of absorption goes towards offsetting this board & 50% is secured as carbon credits to fund livelihood projects in Myanmar.

The average emission from a Starboard board is 100 kg CO2.

By planting 3 trees per board we offset this 10 x over.

Plastic Offset Program

1.4 kg of trash is collected per board by starboard pop crews at beaches in Thailand & Myanmar.

Globally, an individual is responsible for 1.4 kg of plastic reaching the ocean every year.

Starboard balances this amount for our customers.
