Tech & Features

THE CORE

Flex Carbon is built from a stringer-less traditional Polyurethane foam (PU) core. Starboard has played around with a variety of different densities of foam depending on the desired weight, flex and compressional stability. By having a traditional PU foam core, we have been able to match the flex components of a traditional build by removing the stringer and perfecting the use of different fiber patterns.

CONSTRUCTION

In order to find the key to achieving a flex pattern that is equal and in some instances better than that seen in a normal PU Board, our development team underwent a rigorous testing process to find the perfect combination of fiber orientations, carbon strengths and outer/inner densities. With the introduction of this unique technology comes the launch of three progressive shapes: Black Magic, Flying V and Anaconda.

Starboard Surf 2016 | ALL ROUNDER MATT MOIR

When thinking of shaping a performance longboard there was only one choice when it came to Pro surfers to team up with.
2 x World Longboard Champion Matthew Moir epitomizes fast, progressive long boarding. Matt brings you his signature model that keeps him competing at the highest level!

Overview:
This is our super high performance longboard built to perform in waves from 1ft to 6ft and offers fast down-the-line surfing, as well as the ability to turn the board very loosely and powerfully off the top of waves.
Not only is it solid off the top, but it is also incredibly stable when walking and riding on the nose. It may be called a “performance” board, however, it is incredibly versatile, catering for every long boarder’s specific needs.

Board Specs:
Features include a large double concave, running into heaps of tail kick in the diamond tail.

Ideal Wave Size:
Designed to be ridden in ankle to over-head surf by beginner to intermediate riders, suitable for all levels.

Key Features:

1. High performance shape
2. Extended tail kick for added looseness
3. Double concave for increased speed
4. Full nose to allow for maximum nose riding in critical sections of a wave.
5. Carbon construction utilising Active Stringer
6. From as light as 5.3 kg

Fins:

• Features a Thruster set up
• FCS II fin boxes with conversion kit – Surf 10inch Centre box
• Comes without fins

Tech & Features

The patent pending internal ACTIVE system creates performance through flex.
The flexibility of the board is adjusted by using different fiber orientations, carbon strengths and outer/inner foam core densities. These elements fine tune the board’s ability to flex and return.
The ACTIVE system features a laminated STARFLEX carbon corecell stringer. The stringer is suspended through the center of the board between two high memory polypropylene layers. This acts like a dynamic spring allowing the shell laminate to flex freely but preventing hyperflexion under extreme load.

Starboard Surf 2016 | ALL ROUNDER

Overview:
The All Rounder longboard is a “cross-over” and blend between the performance longboard and the more traditional longboard. It is an all around board meant for smaller waves, yet still capable of handling larger surf. Perfectly stable for walking and extremely loose off the rail.

Board Specs:
It features a double concave with a full nose to assist in stability, with a full outline running into a rounded pintail.This shape has a slightly flatter curve than the performance long board, to increase the ease in catching waves.

Ideal Wave Size:
Designed to be ridden in ankle to over-head surf for beginner to intermediate riders, suitable for all levels.

Key Features:

1. Traditional all around design
2. Flatter bottom curve for planning on smaller waves
3. Increased volume and surface area for maximum walking
4. Carbon construction utilising Active Stringer
5. From as light as 5.5kg

Fins:

• Features a Thruster set up
• FCS II fin boxes with conversion kit – Surf 10inch Centre box
• Comes without fins
