The friendly fun board that makes any paddler feel pro

The perfect introductory/ beginner paddle board for first time paddlers who want to paddle fast and stay dry. A progressive, versatile shape sporting a big bottom concave and boxy rails for unmatched stability, speed and glide potential.

The GO board range accommodates all rider weights and abilities with sizes that range from the longer & faster 12’0” to the more maneuverable 10’2” length size option. The bigger sizes offer the most stability from the wider outline, while the shorter narrower boards are suited for lighter riders offering greater tracking and maneuverability. It’s one of the best stand up paddleboarding experiences you can have on flat water or in light wind & choppy conditions.

ALL ABOUT EASY PADDLING

The GO is all about making it easy for you to get into paddle boarding. You can paddle fast, while feeling comfortable and staying dry, securing your ultimate first time SUP experience.

STABILITY AND SPEED BALANCE

The looks of a classic surf shape with performance and stability DNA from our award-winning race boards.

WIDE TAIL AND NOSE

Provides an entirely smooth and balanced trim for efficient paddling over distance. You can step back for a snap turn or count on the nose area for added stability in chop.

DEEP CENTER CHANNEL

Creates a flatter middle rocker for the most efficient and long-lasting glide. Similar to our award-winning All Star race boards.

BOTTOM SIDE PLANE

Creating a stable platform for unmatched balance. It’s really the catamaran concept with volume further out from the middle enhancing stability.

Larger sizes are perfect for yoga and fitness.

2-IN-1 SHOULDER CARRY STRAP & PADDLE HOLDER

• Velcro loop to attach your paddle.

• Easier to carry as the board simply hangs effortlessly on the shoulder and free up your hand to multi-task, hold your coffee, or phone.

• When not in use, the bungee sits flat on the board so it doesn’t drag in the water.

• Comes with Lite Tech Sun and Lite Tech Wave. Can be purchased after market for Rhino.

THE BOXY RAILS

Increase the stability of the board and limits water flowing onto the deck, keeping feet and gear dry, essential in cooler climates.

FLAT STANDING AREA

For extra comfort when paddling and doing yoga.

BUNGEE TIE DOWN

On the nose for storing your gear.

FAR BACK FIN BOX POSITION

Improves tracking and reduces the amount of times you have to switch the paddle from side to side when paddling. The further back the fin sits in the box, the more directional stable the board will become.

FCS INSERT

On the nose to attach accessories like a GoPro, phone holder, compass or GPS

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 GO has an average carbon footprint of 130.6 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 GO has an average plastic content of 11.8 kg per board.
