BOARD REVIEWS
SUPBoarder Magazine
Tested GO board and SAYS 10/10 !
“The Starboard GO finished in the Starshot Sun graphics is an absolutely stunning looking board. But it doesn’t end there… the whole Starboard GO range of boards are packed with R&D from Starboard Race and Touring boards, offering an excellent stable platform for flatwater SUP cruising, fitness and yoga. It’s the easiest mid-length board we’ve ever paddled with great straight-line glide and performance.”
Peter Murphy
Tested the Waterline
“It accelerates the water out of its path at an ever-increasing rate, giving the rider an effortless experience. You never feel that drag, because it is simply not pushing water. No bow wave, no splash, hardly a ripple, but you’re moving across the water’s surface quickly on a stable platform. It’s all about paddling distances effortlessly and comfortably which are the hallmarks of performance touring board, that this truly is.”
