TOURING – FAST, SMOOTH AND STABLE PIONEERING EVERYWHERE

Inspired by the award-winning race designs, the Touring range gives you the extra glide to paddle distances with comfort, stability and the option to carry gear along the journey.

The flat side planes increase your stability like a catamaran and the straight middle rocker promotes the extra glide. A special secure bag storage just in front of the standing makes it more accessible and lowers the centre of gravity, giving you more control and stability to carry gear.

Any water that may come onto the standing area on choppy days, is flushed out through the tail with a new recessed drainage channel. Similarly to the Sprint, the narrower and squarer nose slices through the water, giving you the smoothest and most efficient glide with minimal splash.

Enjoy the trademark shoulder carry straps option, various mount options and the front/ aft bungee tie downs on your next adventure. Whether its weekend trips on lakes, short commutes, or longer adventures, the all new Touring range gives you solid stability to paddle fast and explore.

Suited for all skill levels, the Touring range is available in 3 technologies and features 4 sizes, with a new narrower 14’0” x 28” for those wanting the fastest and most efficient glide. Our hot tip is the 14’0” x 28” is pretty much as fast as our largest Allstar and a favourite amongst our testers.

What size TOURING is right for me?

12’6” X 29” – Balances speed and stability offering faster glide and efficiency than the 12’6” x 31” and is suited for riders up to 100kg.

12’6” x 31” – The 31” is the most stable and widest design for riders up to 110kg. The 12’6” length offer more manoeuvrability than the 14’0” and is ideal for those that have limited storage space.

14’0” x 28” – This new size offers the fastest and most efficient touring experience. The 28” width has the highest top speed, ideal for riders up to 110kg that need stability and ability to carry gear at speed. The 28” is a good option as a cross over Touring and Racing model.

14’0” x 30” – Ideal for riders up to 120kg, the 14’0” length will give you fast glide to paddle longer distances with the solid stability from the 30” width.

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.

The TOURING comes in the Lite Tech and Starlite.
