Starboard Nomad XTEC Carbon 2027

The Nomad is a hybrid light-wind foil board designed to deliver efficient glide and early lift onto the foil. Its elongated and narrow mid-length outline allows you to gain speed effortlessly, while the narrow, pulled-in nose and tail enhance agility and reduce touchdowns during turns. Larger sizes are ideal for Wing, SUP Foil, and Parawing, while smaller boards also perform well for Prone and Foil Assist setups.

Starboard Nomad Features:

• Multi-discipline foiling: Larger sizes suit Wing Foiling, SUP Foiling, and Parawing, while smaller boards are ideal for Prone Foiling and Foil Assist setups.
• Agile surf performance: Narrow, sharp nose and tail reduce touchdowns during turns and deliver a lively, surf-oriented riding feel.
• Mid-length lightwind glide: The longer, narrower mid-length outline builds speed efficiently, helping riders lift onto foil earlier in lighter winds.
• Forward foil position: The foil box is positioned slightly forward to balance the longer mid-length outline, creating stable flight trim and a natural paddling stance.
• Concave deck: Lowers the rider’s center of gravity for increased stability and control on foil, while volume distribution toward the nose prevents the board from bogging when driving through the front foot.
• Pin Tail: Provides a clean water release and works with the narrow outline to maintain glide while allowing sharper, more radical turns once flying.
• Narrow nose: Slices efficiently through the water to improve glide, reduce drag during acceleration, and maintain speed.
• Fuller tail volume: Additional tail volume improves trim balance and stability when building speed onto foil.
• Displacement bottom shape: Displacement-style nose bottom design for smooth low-speed glide, transitioning into a planing tail with hard edges for quick release and smooth touchdowns.
• Refined mid-length rocker: Optimized rocker line to generate consistent low-speed glide, facilitating progressive acceleration and efficient takeoff.
