Starboard SUP - Element 9'8" x 30" - Stand Up Paddle Boards

"Upgraded to turn tighter and harder than it did before."It took a lot of development and testing to create a shape that improved the last Element. It maintains that great glide and balance, being good for a flat water cruise or maintaining speed through fatter sections of waves. With finer rails and thinner volume, along with the modified outline and tail, the performance characteristics on a wave are greatly improved.
