SUPBoarder Mag presents one of the most highly anticipated SUP surf reviews of the year, featuring Beau as he compares Starboard SUP’s Wedge, Spice, and Pro shapes. This comprehensive review dives into the details of each board’s performance on the waves, ideal rider suitability, and recommended wave types for optimal surfing experiences.
Wedge:
If you’re a beginner looking to enhance your skills, the Wedge emerges as the clear winner in stability and forgiveness. With its wide 32″ width and compact design featuring innovative dropped rails, this board offers a smooth progression for riders of all levels. While the paddling speed may be slightly slower, the on-wave experience is truly remarkable.
Spice:
Dubbed as the ultimate quiver killer, the Spice is a versatile board capable of handling various conditions. Its cleverly blended stability, thanks to the wider nose platform, combined with performance-enhancing features like thinner rails and a narrower tail outline, make it an outstanding choice. To personalize your experience, exploring different fin configurations is highly recommended.
Pro:
For those seeking the epitome of high-performance surf SUPs, Starboard’s Pro shape stands out as the pinnacle choice. Designed for advanced riders who crave the thrill of faster and steeper waves, this technical board allows surfers to unleash their maximum potential and truly excel. A must-have for those aiming to take their surfing to the next level.
Throughout the video, Beau extensively tests the mentioned board sizes. However, the insights gained from this review can be effectively applied to Starboard’s entire range of surf SUPs. Whether you’re a beginner or an advanced surfer, SUPBoarder Mag’s review provides invaluable information to guide your board selection and elevate your surfing experience.
