PADDLES THAT WIN

The Lima paddle is the standard in high-performance paddling. It is built for paddlers who demand speed, precision, and a responsive feel. The blade shape ensures a direct catch and clean exit, delivering top performance with every stroke.

The Lima paddle is the trusted choice of SUP world champions. Over the years Lima remains as the most winning paddle.

GREAT FOR TECHNICAL RACING AND SPRINTS

The Lima paddle’s shape and angle provide exceptional power and grip, making it perfect for technical racing and sprints.

WORLD CHAMPIONS' CHOICE

Starboard Dream Team riders race with production paddles, the same paddle as you.

› Connor Baxter (71 kg) chooses Lima XL, F35 for Tech & Sprint / Lima L for distance.
› Michael Booth (78 kg) chooses Lima XL, F35 on the shaft for all conditions.
› Esperanza Barreras (61 kg) chooses Lima M as her preferred setup.
› Fiona Wylde (64 kg) chooses Lima M with F45 shat for all conditions.
› Clément Colmas (68 kg) chooses Lima M, F30.

TWIN RIBS SHAPE

The ribs create blade strength and ability to cut through the water faster and reduces 15% of core volume of the blade.

THE CONCAVE

The concave on the power face is guiding the water throughout the blade controlling the wobbling and increasing the water flow speed. All your power is transferred in a straight forward motion as you don’t need to worry about paddle alignment in the water.

10° BLADE ANGLE

The Lima features a 10° angle at the blade neck, for an efficient power phase catch.

NARROW AND FLAT PROFILE

A unique narrow and flat profile allows you to pull the blade very close to the rail of the board, giving it a nice line.

STIFF AND STRONG

The combination of UD and 3K carbon enhances the blade’s strength and stiffness. This results in a more durable and responsive performance during intense paddling sessions.

NEW REFINED SHAFT

The new Carbon and Carbon Pro shafts have been refined for the perfect balance of weight and strength. Both feature a new anti-slip unidirectional texture, providing a secure grip when wet.

Carbon Pro shaft pairs with Prepreg blades.
Carbon shaft pairs with Carbon and Tiki Tech blades.

ERGONOMIC HANDLE

The handle is designed to provide a powerful grip, making it ideal for any type of racing, whether long-distance or sprint. The flat top and wide grip create powerful leverage for the whole paddle and the blade. You can steer the paddle at slight angles and remain at full power.

26mm round shafts now feature a new M-size handle.

ANTI-TWIST INNER & SMOOTH CLAMP

Easy and reliable alignment. The wide clamp for a quick and effortless release and reduced water infiltration.
Available on 2 pcs paddles.

Paddle Care note: Do not pull the inner shaft out further than the “maximum” point indicated on the shart. Watch video >

PADDLE SOCK

Made of stretchable polyester, the sock replaces paper waste and protects your paddle from dust, scratches, and UV damage.
