The new range of Starboard paddle surf boards 2008 is about to hit the UK and boy have these guy’s been working hard to enhance their range for the coming year…..

The first is the Starboard Cruser at 12′6″ x 30″, then there is Starboard Mr Easy 12′ x 32″, after that you start getting into the performance side of the range with the Starboard Ultimate Blend at 11′2″ x 30, then last of all and some may say the best is The Extremists, now this is where thing start getting interesting

Starboard paddle surf boards 2008

Here is what Starboard have to say about The Extremists

9′8″x30″ and 9′0″x30″, for the hardcore and people that want to get the most out of riding waves.
The fish-tail style shorter boards are the most exciting and progressive shapes in the range.
They are still stable paddlers due to their 30″ width but they demand a slightly higher skill level to be able to get the full potential out of them.
They feel more like surfing a shortboard in comparison. With instant acceleration, their shorter shapes allow you to pump down the line with powerful, driven cutbacks and rapid response.
Gliding into tiny waves with ultimate ease, they comfortably handle the speed of taking the drop on larger waves.

The full range of Starboard Paddle Boards will be available from Airhead Board Sports in the New Year for sale and demo…. from what I have seen so far on the new equipment 2008 is going to rock.

Happy New Year…. and have a great stand up 2008….. more from the Airhead next year.
