      “PERFORMANCE SHAPES FOR SERIOUS RIDERS SEEKING WORLD-CLASS WAVES”

       

      Shorter lengths, more stability, faster speed and more control – we introduce the 2021 PRO range!

      All new sizes scaled up from the 6’8″ Pro model designed and tested by our 2 ISA World Champion surfers Benoit Carpentier and Zane Schweitzer. The short outline helps to fin in tighter pockets of the wave and is more maneuverable without the nose catching through turns.

      NEW

      8’0” x 29” / 121 L

      The 8’0” packs a surprising amount of volume for its size, making it a very viable option for riders that might normally be intimidated by going so short. The slightly domed deck holds the float and stability, thinning out at the rails to allow for responsive foot pressure when turning without making the board feel corky.

      NEW 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 outside of 2 glass skins, increasing the overall total breakage strength and reducing the weight due to lower resin absorption.
