The Blue Carbon construction is the result of years learning how to produce the lightest and strongest constructions in both SUP & Windsurf, and refining that to come up with a new technology that delivers performance at the best value we have ever introduced in the market.
Top grade 150g Biaxial Carbon wraps the entire board, joining with an overlap on the deck and bottom to create at stringer, increasing the total breakage strength. The 45-degree woven fibre brings an ultra-crisp and responsive flex and creates the skeleton structure to strengthen the entire board.
2 skins of durable fibre glass form a sandwich around the biaxial Carbon, protecting the carbon by dampening and absorbing the impact.
PROTECTS AGAINST TOTAL BREAKAGE
The combination of twin T-stringers deck and bottom work together to increase the overall total breakage strength. The T-stringers are positioned close to the rail acting similar to an i-beam to endure heavy drops and strong wipe outs.
SUSTAINABLY SOURCED PINE
A standing area of 0.6mm Australian Pine is added for extra deck impact resistance and rigidity.
In the standing area, nose and tail increase impact resistance.
Shear resistant, fused and moulded individually to fit each and every Starboard board providing high strength at the lightest weight. Our moulded core technology produces zero EPS wastage.
Paint pigment is infused into the resin during lamination, resulting in a lighter weight board, eliminates paint chipping and reduces the release of harmful paint toxins.
In the standing area, nose and tail increase impact resistance.
Shear resistant, fused and moulded individually to fit each and every Starboard board providing high strength at the lightest weight. Our moulded core technology produces zero EPS wastage.
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.
Buy a board and we pick up 1.1 kg of beach/ ocean plastic trash – equivalent to the amount of plastic trash entering the ocean, per person, per year. Starboard balances this amount for our customers.
