Built to last, Rhino is the most durable and hardwearing technology designed for schools and clubs.
The entire board is wrapped in a think, touch thermoplastic polymer ABS skin, offering an ultra-strong impact resistance and durable shell.
Full EVA pad covers the whole nose area creating soft touch and impact resistance. The softness makes it comfortable and safe to fall down when learning to paddle and surf.
The full rail is wrapped with a 0.7mm thick rail band to further protect the rails against impact.
Fiber glass wraps the core to help increase the breakage strength and overall stiffness. Additional glass reinforcements in the standing area protect against heel dents.
The fin boxes are molded with extra strong Akulon Eco, made from upcycled fishing nets.
An extra layer of 160g glass is laminated on the bottom for added durability and impact resistance.
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.
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.
