Starboard Spice
One Board. All Conditions. Pure Fun.
The Starboard Spice is built to be the board that unlocks fast progression and maximum enjoyment. Designed for riders who want a SUP surf board that turns sharply, accelerates quickly, and handles a wide variety of waves, the Spice delivers a lively, fast and intuitive ride.
From carving rail-to-rail lines to generating instant speed down the face, every design element works together to create a board that feels playful, responsive and confidence-boosting.
Why Riders Love It
The Spice feels reactive underfoot without being unstable. It accelerates quickly, pivots effortlessly and rewards good technique — yet remains forgiving for progressing riders. With sizes spanning from small, performance builds to larger entry-friendly volumes, there’s a model for every skill level.
Key Design Features
Unique Bevelled Rail
A three-stage bevel design transforms handling, offering:
-
Faster acceleration from reduced planing area
-
Effortless rail-to-rail roll and pumping response
-
Thinner, more sensitive rail engagement requiring less foot pressure
Even subtle weight shifts result in smooth directional changes — ideal for carving and progressing turns.
Balanced Nose Outline
A refined nose outline provides stability and keeps momentum through flat spots. The tapered rail profile reduces swing weight, making turns smoother, faster and more controlled.
Parallel Midsection
The straight midsection helps maintain down-the-line speed and glide while the thicker volume here improves float and paddling stability — especially useful in choppy conditions.
Slight Domed Deck
Strategically shaped volume maintains comfort underfoot while keeping rails thin for responsive surfing.
Wing Tail
The wing tail breaks the rail line behind the stance, giving extra stability forward while narrowing the release point for precise turning. This creates a highly manoeuvrable but confidence-building tail feel.
Round Pin Tail
The round pin provides grip, forgiveness and hold — especially in bigger or steeper surf.
Fin Setup & Performance
The Spice range includes a 5-fin option, offering both 4+1 and 2+1 setups so riders can tune the feel based on conditions or preference. Updated fin angles increase looseness and agility up front while maintaining drive from the tail.
All models include:
Acute Carbon construction models are supplied with ultra-light Prepreg Carbon fins for enhanced drive and grip.
Limited Series models come with Armacore fins.
Size Range For Every Rider
With models ranging from compact high-performance sizes (6’9” / 73L) up to a new large-volume 10’3” / 174L, the Spice accommodates riders from lightweight surfers through to heavier paddlers or beginners wanting a fun, performance-ready board straight away.
Included
All models include a stretch fabric board sock for travel protection and sustainability.
