Starboard Gen R 14 x 25 Lite Tech

Our design brief was to create a race board that is fast, user friendly, has a lower thickness for technical racing, small bumps, and surf.This range fits right in between the Sprint and the All Star, with the Sprint being our fastest flat-water model and the All Star beingour all-conditions race SUP and most winning board ever.After seven rounds of prototypes and numerous tests with multiple riders, we reached a design that has impressive acceleration,balanced glide, little splash from the bow, and solid stability when turning.

KEY ASPECTS

Faster Acceleration The low nose rocker and narrow nose outline helps increase the acceleration and overall efficiency on flat.This acceleration is essential for tech racing, beach starts and explosive sprints after buoy turns

Balanced Trim refined rocker, outline, and even volume placement creates a balanced glide

Solid Turning and Stability From The Tail the wider tail outline combined with the flat deck makes it very comfortable to moveand be stable during the turn.Our new Gen-R is a key model for surf racing and all round paddling. The slightly recessed deck has been optimized to have great stability while easy-to-use when beach starting and getting back on the board. Lower rail height and reduced nose thickness is a much requested feature (especially from our lighter riders) for technical races, buoy turning and easy handling in choppy conditions.

We think the Gen-R is a great fit between the flat water Sprint model and open ocean/all round All Star model. Additionally, youth riders will love this board for its speed and ease of use.
