DESCRIPTION

AN EXPLORER’S FAVORITE TRANSPORTATION

The overall balanced glide experience and premium features are what have made Starboard’s Touring paddle boards become the world’s highest-rated by magazines and customers’ favorite worldwide. The wider nose and squarer tail make the Touring board more stable, especially for harsh conditions like side chop and moderate wind.

Experience the Starboard difference even before entering the water, these lightweight paddle boards feature the trademark Starboard shoulder carry strap which allows you to effortlessly carry it to the water, with both hands-free!

The Edge release technology reduces drag by creating a laminar flow behind the board while the Welding technology makes the board stronger and last longer.
