2023 Starboard 12’6″ x 30″ x 6″ Generation Deluxe Single Chamber

Welding Technology




Heated and bonded for life. Glue is never forever. Mechanical bond = Strength and Durability. Starboard’s new welding technique turns two into one – using heat to bond two separate pieces of PVC into a single solid unit. Heat-welded PVC creates a mechanical bond that’s stronger, lasts longer – and is better for the environment.

Since the beginning inflatable boards have been glued together at the seam, so the boards only last as long as the glue. Over the last few years Starboard have worked with welding machine manufacturers to develop better machinery for seam welding. Then they helped train their selected OEM assembler to utilize this unique technology in Starboard’s exclusive production lines, resulting in a long lasting mechanical bond.

Parabolic Rails

The Parabolic Rail Reinforcement is a second layer of PVC positioned over the rails through the center of the board, which drastically improves board stiffness, providing a more responsive ride and enabling you to push your limits.

Starboard Re-Cover Bag

Light, strong, inflatable SUP bag

• Made wider and shorter, so its easy and fast to pack, whilst preserving the shape of the Side Walls.
• Due to the EVA Side walls, the All Star must be folded instead of rolling.
• Bag is made from recycled plastic bottles. Approx. 30 bottles used to make 1 bag.
• The ultra-light Re-cover bag is designed to minimise weight yet maximise comfort and strength, resulting in the very best backpack carrying experience.
• Utilizing “Rip Stop” technology to further strengthen the solid 450D materials, we have an amazingly strong and light combo.
• Thanks to our partner “Waste2Wear” for making this breakthrough possible with upcycled plastic bottles, showcasing futuristic thinking.
• New spacious inside pockets for accessories.
• The Re-Cover bags have a RPET 450D outer fabric layer made from upcycled plastic bottles, in partnership with Waste2Wear. About 30-150 bottles are used to make each bag
• Square shape bag to accomodate new standing tray and efficient roll up/fold up
• Twin roller wheels for easy transport
• Padded cover
• Ergonomically shaped hiking straps and back support, which can be packed away in the strap free system
• Inside and outside compressions straps
• Reinforced diamond PVC for increased durability around the base
• Name tag window
• Strong, non corrosive zipper
• 34 x 20 x 12 inches

Starboard Tiki Pump

Fast, easy and comfortable

• The hose is attached to the pump’s body, so no flapping around when pumping the board up. And so is the pressure gauge, for an easy read of the pressure in the board.
• 10% more efficient thanks to the redesigned handle, base, piston and outside tube for the air outlet.
• By placing the airflow cylinder outside of the chamber, there is space for a more efficient flow inside the pump.
• Double and single action pumping modes and wider removable foot base that increases stability when pumping.
• Inflate your board with faster and easier continuous pumping, both in down and up actions. With the flip of a switch at about 7PSI, the double action pump can convert to single action for easy inflation up to 18PSI
• Redesign allows effortless inflation due to the increased diameter of the intake and exhaust valves
• Precise angled handle and palm grip for comfortable and easier pumping. The handles are wide and shaped perfectly to fit the palm, then rotated into the best angle for a sustained pumping action
• The ergonomically designed extra wide detachable foot pad creates a stable, comfortable platform for sustained effort in getting your board up to 18PSI, in the shortest amount of time, yet packs down efficiently with the detachable base
• The base and the handles are produced with upcycled fishing nets taken out of the Indian ocean.

Other Starboard Features

2-in-1 Shoulder Carry Strap & Paddle Holder

• Velcro loop to attach your paddle.
• Easier to carry as the board simply hangs effortlessly on the shoulder and free up your hand to multi-task, hold your coffee, or phone.
• When not in use, the bungee sits flat on the board so it doesn’t drag in the water.

Experience the Starboard difference even before entering the water, these lightweight paddle boards feature the trademark Starboard shoulder carry strap which allows you to effortlessly carry it to the water, with both hands-free!

FCS Insert: FCS mount on the nose to attach accessories from GoPro, a phone holder, compass or GPS, it is your perfect exploring companion. STAR Mount supplied with every board to attach accessories.
