We have board widths for all rider weights and skill levels. 24.5″ and wider are suited for heavier riders, while 23″ and below are for higher skilled and lighter riders.
2023 Design has a narrower nose and tail outline to give you faster acceleration, higher top speed and greater efficiency. Our driest and most efficient center drainage system increases drainage speed by 50%, while reducing weight by 50%. Higher rails increase secondary stability and control in chop, while preventing water entering in downwind.
*14’0″ x 28″ is a carryover shape from 2022
Slices through the water with a cleaner entry, increasing acceleration and glide.
(Except 14’0″ x 28″)
Gives you more pop in choppy conditions, restricts the nose from getting caught downwind and reduces water entering into the standing area.
(Except 14’0″ x 28″)
Ensure you have more control in choppier conditions, greater secondary stability and restricts water entering the inside when leaning on the rail downwind.
(Except 14’0″ x 28″)
At the tail increase overall glide, and is more maneuverable to change direction and steer the board downwind.
(Except 14’0″ x 28″)
Delivers fast acceleration and top speed.
Provide stability, acting like stabilisers similar to a trimaran.
Optimizes the outline to provide more pop from the increased side volume, stability is further improved, and rolling reduced.
Increases acceleration and glide, helps lift the nose over swell upwind, is more reactive to turn direction downwind and easier to sink for bouy turns.
Helps deflect water entering into the standing, keeping water weight off the board. Also helps as a protection layer when tying the board onto roof racks.
*The deflector will not be installed on the boards but shipped in the accessory box.
Downwind: When paddling downwind, there is a sweet spot between the blue and white pad to trim the board to continue catching bumps
Upwind: In bigger chop, it is recommended to stand a bit further back to help the nose lift over bumps. In smaller chop, it is advised to stand further forwards to help reach as far forwards with the paddle to help pull the board over bumps and have greater control tracking.
The 3k pre-impregnated carbon biax is an ultra-lightweight weave and creates super stiff performance throughout the fin. The trailing edge features a super sharp 0.4mm for clean hydrodynamics. The new range of fins adds speed and performance like never before.
*Flash replaces Natural Winner
*Flash+ replaces Race Ultra
A longer center fin like the Flash+ will provide greater stability and tracking in flat, while a smaller fin like the Flash will deliver more downwind maneuverability.
Customise the handle placement for beach starts.
We moved the drainage from the rails to center of the board resulting in:
• Less water weight on the rails, reducing the water causing imbalances in lateral stability.
• Faster drainage, we recorded up to 50% faster drainage time (drained in 18 strokes with center vs 39 strokes with rails).
• 50% reduction in weight change from 4 to 2 drainage holes
• The standing area is much drier overall as less water enters when leaning on the rail to rail turn.
(Except 14’0″ x 28″)
Recessed into the board for maximum efficiency, secured with improved sealant glue and additional clear tape around the edge.
(Except 14’0″ x 28″)
• Lightest and strongest race board construction is up to 500g lighter.
• Super light-weight biaxial carbon is laminated over the standing area and full bottom.
• While the stronger 150g Biaxial carbon wraps the nose and rail and the best strength ratio and efficient flex.
• High-density PVC is used in the standing area and full bottom maximizing strength and long-term durability.
FULL CARBON WRAP, WOOD REINFORCED STANDING, VALUE OFFERING
• Offers a full carbon construction that combines strength and weight at a truly competitive value.
• Biaxial Carbon wraps the full deck and rail giving you excellent competitive weight and strength properties.
• 2 x carbon stringer on the deck provides additional impact and stiffness.
• Extra glass reinforcements wrap the sharp edges and inside rails of the cockpit for extra rigidity and strength.

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.
The All Star has an average carbon footprint of 119 kg per board.
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.
The All Star has an average plastic content of 10.4 kg per board.
