Starboard Pro Surf SUP 2026

> Bottom shape - Single concave provides lift and speed, feeding through to a double midsection and slight vee at the tail to manoeuvre and rock from rail to rail.

> Deck shape - the deck remains fairly flat to provide comfort and stability in choppy conditions, conserving energy for longer sessions. It transitions to a slight dome as the rails thin out.

> Rail shape - a sharp rail edge from the tail to just in front of the fins helps create a firm edge for control and responsive frip through turns. Forward of the fins, the rails soften and roll to aid in transitioning between manoeuvres and maintaining speed.

> Rocker curve - the moderate nose rocker prevents catching on steep drops and turns. A flattened midsection boosts speed, while a clean tail kick curve allows for snappy turns and easy rotation, blending speed with manoeuvrability.

> Squash tail - delivers excellent drive, holding well in larger waves while allowing quick directional changes. 

> 5 Fin option - Offers a choice between 4+1 and 2+1 configurations, allowing riders to adjust their fin placement for different wave conditions.

What size to go for ?

> 9'0" x 30" / 144L - Remains a favourite for heavier riders up to 120 kg. The new outline is faster generating speed and easier to rotate through turns as it has reduced swing weight. A great option if you want max stability with pro surfing performance.

> 8'7" x 29.5" / 130L - The 8’7″ retains the same dimensions, yet feels more stable and less corky from the flatter deck. The fine rails and sharp squash tail hold well in the bigger surf, allowing you to feel more in control to push harder on your bottom turns! Slightly flatter tail rocker and pulled in nose translates into a faster down the line speed.

> 8'2" x 29" / 118L - The 8’2″ replaces the previous 8’0″, extending the length to catch waves that bit earlier and to hold its line in steeper drops. The 8’2″ at 118 L will be highly popular for riders up to 95kg. The new fin position gives you the needed bite and manoeuvrability, coupled with drive through turns!

> 7'10" x 28" / 104L - The new 7’10” is slightly thinner yet longer than the previous 7’7″, making the float feel less corky despite the reduced volume. The added length and narrower nose aids late entry in hollower waves, giving you more speed to confidently make critical sections. Squash tail feels smooth and secure when you drive off the bottom and hit the lip!

> 7'5" x 26.75" / 92L - Feeling like a surfboard, the 7’5″ was a hit among testers for its ability to float riders up to 80kg, yet turn heads in performance! The narrow nose wants to whip through turns and allows you to sit deep in the pocket of waves. The higher nose rocker feels more forgiving, while the thin rails nose and tail feel ultra-responsive to foot pressure.

> 7'4" x 25" / 85L - Developed in close collaboration with Camille Dubrana, the 85L Pro is designed for riders up to 80–85 kg who demand peak performance in SUP surfing. Pro rider tested and refined across Bali and Thailand, this board features ultra-thin rails that deliver superior hold in powerful surf while maintaining impressive speed and fluidity to link turns seamlessly in smaller conditions. Whether carving up head-high waves or making the most of everyday swell, the 85L Pro delivers elite-level responsiveness and flow.

> 7'2" x 23.5" / 74L - This board, requested by Zane Schweitzer and Benoit Carpentier, takes performance to new heights. Featuring dimensions of 2″ longer and half an inch narrower than the World Championship-winning 7’0”x24” Pro model, it excels in steep drops and barrel riding. The narrower outline ensures faster speeds, while the pulled-in rounded pin tail with super thin rails provides effortless bottom turns and solid control in challenging surf.

> 7'0" x 24" / 75L - The new 7’0″ shape feels amazing, really reactive and definitely more high performance”-Benoit Carpentier. Between rail shape, outline and fin position, the 70″ delivers more control in bigger surf and carries it flow to link manoeuvres. Leonard Nika loved the feeling of the new model, giving confidence to improve and progress his surfing to the next level!

What construction to go for?

LIMITED SERIES
TIMELESS LOOK, SOLID PERFORMANCE

• Twin T-stringers made from glass fibre are positioned on the deck and bottom of the board close to the rail, providing a massive increase in the overall strength against total breakage in surf.

• An additional wide layer of 200g glass wraps the rails for higher strength against paddle impact and further reinforces the overall strength against buckling.

• The deck features reinforced biaxial glass and Australian pine, to resist heel dents and impact from the standing area.

• The nose and tail are wrapped in multiple layers of glass fiber for further strength on these impact zones.

Acute Carbon
LIGHTWEIGHT, STRONG, AND EXTRA RESPONSIVE

› Premium Craftsmanship: Handbuilt using a meticulous premium process.

› High-Strength Core: Features a 25kg EPS core for enhanced break strength and a lively flex.
