The Starboard Inflatable 12’6″ x 30″ Touring Deluxe SUP Windsurfer, or WindSUP, is the ultimate transportable all round windsurfing inflatable paddle board. The fastest SUP Windsurfer model. It’s narrower with a parallel outline for the best glide and precision.

Based on the extremely popular 12’6″ Touring Deluxe, this board can now be windsurfed. Suited for riders up to 240 lbs, the 12’6″ Touring in the Deluxe Single Chamber (DSC) woven fusion and welded construction combines a balance of speed, stability and manoeuvrability. The narrow nose helps to shed water and makes you feel that ultimate glide sensation. The straighter midsection improves board stability, a more efficient paddle stroke and glide, and with the wider tail, you can step back more easily to perform a steady and balanced turn.

This Starboard inflatable windsurfing SUP comes with a mast attachment point, checkout the optional sails, rigs and associated accessories available here.

Two YEAR warranty.

Starboard 12’6″ x 30″ x 6″ Touring Deluxe SUP Windsurfer – paddle boarding and windsuping in one

Name: Starboard Inflatable 12'6" x 30" Touring Deluxe SUP Windsurfer
Brand: Starboard
SKU: 1012220601001
Availability: InStock

Starboard SUP Windsurfer Inflatables are compact, light and strong. You can go paddle boarding, learn windsurfing and get planing with foot straps. They are great to teach kids to windsurf and they roll up into a bag when you’re done.

The Starboard WindSUP Inflatables feature their 3D Rail Edge technology, a proprietary 3D elastomer compound that follows the contours of the board and creates a release edge that allows the boards to fully plane yet fold and roll up. Thanks to this 3D Rail Edge, you can accelerate and enjoy the most exciting planing sensation possible on an inflatable board.

Continued is Starboard’s removable center fin box system. The center fin aids stability and upwind windsurfing when installed for windsurfing. Then simply remove the fin and fin box for increased paddling and advanced windsurfing performance, drag reduction and higher efficiency.

The foot strap inserts with placement options will foster advanced windsurfing learning & progression. Four easy to install foot straps are included.

For 2019, Starboard injected 25 years of board building innovation into their inflatable board program. Their main focus was to build their boards stiffer, lighter, more stable, safer and way more durable. One feature, one of many unique to Starboard, is their Welding Technology. The welding technology carries over as a proven technology with industry leading quality and durability.

What’s new?

Updated board graphics

Fusion Woven Drop Stitch – Deluxe Single Chamber (DSC)

In development for 5 years, Starboard’s new Woven Drop Stitch technology process starts with a glue free PVC lamination on the top and bottom of the board. Inside the board they have their new weave on the top and base. This weave provides a structure for the polyester yarns – which gives the board its shape. The weave has less give than the traditional knitting method. Knitted fibres have soft and stretchy properties, whereas this new weaving is superior in stiffness, reflex and rigidity. Think dress shirt vs a polo shirt.

But it’s not just about adding on – they’ve also taken away, cutting weight by 3.3 lbs on average. The yarn threads are reduced per square inch for better reflex. Less plastic and a lighter paddle board. Less weight, faster acceleration, easier to carry. With Starboard’s new Woven Technology their paddle boards are not only lighter, but stronger and stiffer. Better in every way.

Extra stiff, strong and light. Feel it!

Woven fabrics reduce stretch, hold more tension and create a stiffer board.
The woven fabrics use less material than conventional drop stitch, creating a lighter board.
Fusion lamination of top and bottom layers is done in a glueless process, increasing stiffness and creating a solid board, while reducing weight.
What does it mean for you? A stiffer and lighter, durable board, with a reflex sensation you can feel.
Galvanized 2000 D rails increase the strength of the board, together with the 3K compression bands.

Heat welded rail – Bonded for life

Welding technology turns 2 pieces of material into a single solid unit, resulting in an extra-strong mechanical bond.
A mechanical bond is stronger, lasts longer and is better for the environment.
Welding creates a complete airtight seam without the risk of glue weakening over time.

Cleanest Technology

The deck and bottom lamination process is free of glue and solvent using stricter rules in plasticizer. Packaging of the board is free of plastic.

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.

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.
