🏆 Benoit Carpentier wins 2022 APP Championship on the 7’0″ PRO

🏆 2 year of winning the best performance surf shape awarded by SUPBoarder Magazine, the PRO is now upgraded to the next level.

The completely new design gives more speed to set up and complete maneuvers, more hold through bottom turns in bigger surf and greater response.

New rocker is more forgiving on steeper drops, flatter deck feels less corky and new fin positions refine the control and drive through turns.

Thinner nose profile reduces swing weight for more radical snaps, thinner tail gives more bite and response through turns.

PERFORMANCE SHAPES FOR SERIOUS RIDERS SEEKING WORLD-CLASS WAVES.

“Super stoked about the new Pro range, I feel like we finally found the perfect high-performance shape, no more hesitation going for a big bottom turn, everything seems possible. That’s the result of many years of research and I’m loving it!” ~ Benoit Carpentier, Multiple Times SUP Surf World Champion

THINNER RAIL PROFILE

Reduces swing weight from nose, increasing pivot speed through turns.

LONGER NARROWER NOSE OUTLINE

Extends the rail line, making it easier to paddle into waves and holding on steeper drops.

BOTTOM SHAPE

Single concave provides lift and speed, feeding through to a double midsection and slight vee at the tail to manoeuvre and rock from rail to rail.

FLATTER TAIL ROCKER

Rocker provides faster speed down the line and into turns.

RAILS

Are kept fine with a more pinched and rolled tuck edge, giving bite, control and speed through maneuvers

THINNER RAILS

At the tail gives more bite and control.

FLATTER DECK SHAPE

Offers more comfort and feels less corky.

SQUASH TAIL

Give the most versatile performance in all wave types, particularly holding in bigger surf.

5 FIN OPTION

The 5 fin option allows for quad, thruster and twin fin with small centre nubster. You can choose your preferred fin set up based on riding style and wave conditions.

SUPPLY WITH FINS

All models are supplied with a thruster set up with 4.7 front 120/140 center on bigger sizes. The angles of the fins are updated, with more spray in the front fins for greater manoeuvrability with less angle in the rear for greater drive through turns.

Blue Carbon Sandwich comes with Prepreg Carbon fins.
Limited Series comes with Armacore fins.

PREPREG CARBON SURF FIN

Designed as a step-up model for surfing big waves. The narrower nose outline optimises speed so you can race down the wave face and escape white water in critical sections. The pin tail angles are straighter for increased speed and drive. Thin rails and slight vee at the tail help you harness the speed for controlled bottom turns.

Available constructions:

9’0″ x 30″ / 144 L

Length: 9’0” / 274 cm

Width: 30” / 76 cm

Remains a favourite for heavier riders up to 120 kg. The new outline is faster generating speed and easier to rotate through turns as it has reduced swing weight. A great option if you want max stability with pro surfing performance.

Available constructions:

• Blue Carbon Sandwich

• Limited Series

8’7″ x 29.5″ / 130 L

Length: 8’7″ / 262 cm

Width: 29.5″ / 75 cm

The 8’7″ retains the same dimensions, yet feels more stable and less corky from the flatter deck. The fine rails and sharp squash tail hold well in the bigger surf, allowing you to feel more in control to push harder on your bottom turns! Slightly flatter tail rocker and pulled in nose translates into a faster down the line speed.

Available construction:

• Blue Carbon Sandwich

8’2″ x 29″ / 118L

Length: 8’2” / 249 cm

Width: 29” / 74 cm

The 8’2″ replaces the previous 8’0″, extending the length to catch waves that bit earlier and to hold its line in steeper drops. The 8’2″ at 118 L will be highly popular for riders up to 95kg. The new fin position gives you the needed bite and manoeuvrability, coupled with drive through turns!

Available constructions:

7’10″ x 28″ / 104L

Length: 7’10” / 239 cm

Width: 28” / 71 cm

The new 7’10” is slightly thinner yet longer than the previous 7’7″, making the float feel less corky despite the reduced volume. The added length and narrower nose aids late entry in hollower waves, giving you more speed to confidently make critical sections.

Available constructions:

• Blue Carbon Sandwich

• Limited Series

7’5″ x 26.75″ / 92L

Length: 7’5″ / 226 cm

Width: 26.75″ / 68 cm

Feeling like a surfboard, the 7’5″ was a hit among testers for its ability to float riders up to 80kg, yet turn heads in performance! The narrow nose wants to whip through turns and allows you to sit deep in the pocket of waves. The higher nose rocker feels more forgiving, while the thin rails nose and tail feel ultra-responsive to foot pressure.

The new 7’0″ shape feels amazing, really reactive and definitely more high performance”-Benoit Carpentier.

Board weight tolerance:

Blue Carbon Sandwich +/- 5% , Blue Carbon +/- 5% , Limited Series +/- 6%

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.

The Pro has an average carbon footprint of 114.9 kg per board.

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.

The Pro has an average plastic content of 6.5 kg per board.
