“The choice for waves of consequence.”

Will handle serious sized surf. The outline curves of the 9’8” Pro are drawn out to create a “semi” gun style board. Generous nose rocker allows for the latest of drops and the refined low apex rails will handle the speed of powerful waves. It has a beautiful top turn where you can feed it at high speed and push hard. It carves a full arc with an incredibly smooth edge. Stomp back on the tail and the board comes around effortlessly. A Pro series board with better glide into waves and a 9’8” that whips around remarkably quickly. Optimal for wave faces overhead and up.

“Continuous single concave turning into a slight tail V.”

Our Brushed Carbon wave boards are up to 3kg lighter than our AST technology. The board construction ultra-light, flat-weave biaxial carbon and medium density high quality PVC sandwich foam wrapped around a light density EPS core. The first board construction in the world to utilize an ultra-light carbon fiber that is flat-weaved for total mechanical efficiency.

Starboard proudly introduces the strongest wood construction to date. The full 0.6mm Australian pine deck at a density of 510kg/m³ is combined with three-dimensional 400g glass mat wetted out with an expanding epoxy resin system. The volume created during expansion within the skin turns the lay-up into a stiff, durable, yet light sandwich construction.

AST technology features a light-weight EPS core and uses layers of three-dimensional 400g glass mat wetted out with an expanding epoxy resin system that creates volume within the skin as it cures under pressure. This creates a thick, stiff, durable, yet light-weight sandwiched laminate. A half-deck wood layer improves rigidity and deck impact resistance.
