Starboard Touring
Starboard touring paddleboards are ideal for paddlers looking for efficient glide for fitness or distance paddling but also enjoy predictable stability in a wide range of lake conditions. These board designs are longer with sharper bow profiles and a flat rocker line all for extra glide and enhanced tracking. The lower standing area and added volume also contribute to more stability in a narrower design.
If you’re an adventure seeker and spending a day or two on a paddle board exploring the wild, then these feature-packed touring paddle boards are made for you.
BOARD CONSTRUCTIONS
Composite board:
Lite Tech
Light, Strong, Affordable
• Extra rigidity with the introduction of unidirectional stringer bands and solid with added rail/ nose reinforcements.
• Australian pine on the standing area for extra impact resistance and rigidity in the most critical area.
• Comes with shoulder carry strap inserts. Starboard shoulder carry strap can be purchased aftermarket.
• All inserts have added high-density foam reinforcements.
STARLITE
The Strongest Rail Ever tested
• Ultra-durable, scratch and impact resistant woven 200g twill azure rail protection.
• The combination of twin T-stringers deck and bottom to protect against total breakage. The T-stringers are positioned close to the rail working like an i-beam to endure heavy drops and strong wipeouts.
• Starlite now features a full deck of 0.6mm Australian pine wood which is sandwiched between 2 glass outer skins, increasing the overall total breakage strength and reducing the weight due to lower resin absorption.
Inflatable board:
ZEN
Best Value, Welded, And Lightest
- Roll technology (optional) allows you to pack the board 30% smaller than the regular Starboard inflatables.
- With only the best core essentials. Built with single layer Linear dropstitch making it even lighter and stiffer than before. This Linear knitted dropstitch was developed by Starboard with its supplier for Starboard use ONLY.
- The Heat Welded rails create a complete airtight, mechanically bonded seam without the risk of glue weakening over time. Making the board stronger and last longer.
- Galvanized 2000D rails increase strength and stiffness.
DELUX
Stiffer, Lighter, More Responsive
- The Fusion Woven dropstitch makes the Deluxe boards extra strong and stiff.
- The Heat Welded rails create a complete airtight, mechanically bonded seam without the risk of glue weakening over time. Making the board stronger and last longer.
- Galvanized 2000D rails increase strength and stiffness.
- The Double Chamber (optional) brings the inflatable boards one step closer to a hard board feeling. The Double Chamber stiffens the board significantly, thanks to the double side walls around the second chamber. This chamber also offers extra safety flotation for any emergencies.
TOURING S
If you want a faster sensation, the new Touring S has a slenderer design at 28” width, this is great if you are light or have a good balance.
TOURING L
If you want a more stable and solid feel, carry more gear or are a heavier rider, the new Touring L is your choice
