Starboard All Star Race SUP 2023

ALL STAR – ONE BOARD, ALL CONDITIONS

BE AN ALL-STAR AT EVERY RACE

Ultra-stable, unmatched speed. High performance race shapes, designed by world champion athletes.

What is new for 2023?

EVA Race Deflector – 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. (deflector is not installed on the board but is shipped in accessory box).

Refined Nose Volume – gives you more pop in choppy conditions, restricts the nose from getting caught downwind and reduces water entering into the standing area.

Narrower Nose Outline – slices through the water with a cleaner entry, increasing acceleration and glide.

EVA Trim Position – 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 thee 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.

Slightly narrow tail – increases acceleration and glide, helps lift the nose over swell upwind, is more reactive to turn direction downwind and easier to sink for buoy turns.

Higher side rails – ensure you have more control in choppier conditions, greater secondary stability and restricts water entering the inside when leaning on the rail downwind.

Fin Tips – A longer centre fin like the Flash+ will provide greater stability and tracking in flat, while a smaller fin like the Flash will deliver more downwind manoeuvrability.

Centre Drainage – we moved the drainage from the rails to centre 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 centre 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.

Carbon drain covers – recessed and flush into the board for best efficiency.

What ALL STAR is right for me?

From entry level riders, to elite racers; the All Star is thee world’s most winning, versatile and user-friendly race design. 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.

Available in the light and strong Carbon Sandwich technology and best value Wood Carbon technology. 

What is the difference in the construction?

Starboard not only make a range of board shapes, but the board design can also come in different constructions, depending on the performance, durability and weight you seek from the board.
