Boards with Naish's GT construction are lighter and more durable than those with GS technology. Though they share the same EPS core and full fiberglass coating, the wooden coating is thinner on the GT but it covers both the deck and bottom of the board, granting it more resistance while diminishing weight.
A molded EPS core, covered by fine Fiberglass layers at the bottom, a Sandwich wooden layer over both the deck and bottom and a fiber finish are the main features of Naish´s GT construction.
Boards with Starboard Wood technology are the first ones to incorporate molded wood since 1994.
Thanks to its exclusive technology which combines fiberglass with epoxy resin, they are light and strong.
1. Biaxial laminated australian pine.
2. EPS 15 Kg/m3
3. Fiber reinforced edges.
4. Tridimensional fiber.
5. Wooden laminated edges and deck.
6. UV Protection
7. Stance area reforzada con fibra de vidrio.
Boards with Brushed Carbon technology by Starboard are light and resistant, thanks to its ultralight EPS core.
The surface finish on both sides of the board are made of fiberglass and carbon fiber, highly resistant materials.
Ideal for mid to advanded level riders.
1. EPS 15 gr/m2.
2. Fiber.
3. PVC.
4. Starflex Carbon.
5. Stance area with extra fiber reinforcement.
6. Startouch finish on deck for extra grip.
Stand Up Paddle inflatable boards make use of a manufacturing process called drop-stitch. This technology, which went thorugh a major breakthrough in the last years, consists of linking several plastic layers with internal threads which allow for a hollow and highly resistant structure that can withstand high inflation pressure. Many different brands are using this technology, each one adding their own personal touch or improvements.
AST boards are light and resistant due to their EPS core and total fiberglass coating.
They have a wooden layer, for even more resistance in the stance area.
Roto-molding or rotational molding is a process for manufacturing plastic products by introducing a liquid or dust polymer inside a mould which turns between two perpendicular axes and makes the plastic adhere to its surface, creating hollow pieces. It is used in boat production due to its extreme rigidity and sturdiness.
