STARBOARD 2023 Wedge - Starlite

The new edge

ARE YOU READY TO SURF LIKE A PRO, YET HAVE THE EASE AND COMFORT FROM A WIDER BOARD?

The Wedge line upgrades the previous range of Wide Point boards. These boards have a pro performance and feel without compromising stability or volume. All boards are 32’’ wide to provide float and stability for heavier riders to rip. This is a versatile range for big to small conditions, best suited for beginner and intermediate riders.

The new 8’0″ x 32″ at 123 Liter is nimble, agile and compact. Stability meets maneuverability in the shortest Wedge design.

The Wedge won 2022 Best Performance Wide Body Board awarded by SUPBoarder Magazine.

NARROW NOSE OUTLINE
The narrow nose outline helps you generate speed, limits the nose from catching through turns and fits in tighter pockets in the wave.

LOW NOSE ROCKER
Helps get into waves easily and early.

THIN RAIL PROFILE
Thinner rails on the 8’7” and 9’2” gives the Wedge its pro level performance with faster surfing speeds, better grip, and turning capabilities. The thinner rails are inspired by the much loved Longboard range for the ultra-responsive and reactive feel.

MONO CONCAVE
Generates lift, drive and speed as it channels the water from nose to tail, through to double concave for sensitive rail to rail turning from the midpoint, through to vee tail for reactive pivot turning on the tail.

ROUNDED PIN TAIL
The Wedge has a new rounded pin tail to maximize the turning ability in these wider models. The pin tail makes it easier to engage and sink the tail for faster bottom turns and top turns with more drive. Rounded tail also gives the board a better drive out of the turns.

FIN SET UP
Thruster fin set up provides comfortable straight line tracking on flat and gives drive and control in surf.

8’7″ & 8’0″ features both thruster and quad. Quad fin set up uses 4 side fins and gives fast acceleration and instant down the line speed as it does not have a drag from the larger centre fin.

CONSTRUCION - STARLITE:

THE STRONGEST RAIL EVER TESTED

• Ultra-durable, scratch and impact resistant woven 200g twill azure rail protection.
• The combination of twin T-stringers deck and bottom to protect against total breakage. The T-stringers are positioned close to the rail working like an i-beam to endure heavy drops and strong wipeouts.
• Starlite now features a full deck of 0.6mm Australian pine wood which is sandwiched between 2 glass outer skins, increasing the overall total breakage strength and reducing the weight due to lower resin absorption.

SIZES // PRICED FROM:

• 8’0 x 32'' 123L // $2,799

This board suited for lighter riders or those wanting added maneuverability and performance. The 8’0″ fits in the pocket and critical section of the wave.

• 8’7 x 32'' 143L // $2,799

Shorter, stable and sensitive. The thinner rails make the board respond and feel like a narrower board, sharing a similar characteristic to the much loved Airborn and Longboard ranges. The 8’7” really is the stable high-performance shortboard for those that want to rip yet have enough to make sessions longer.

• 9'2 x 32'' 160L // $2,799

A favorite in the testing and development, it turned heads with its control and responsiveness. The 9’2” is so much more responsive to turn as the thinner rails requires less foot pressure to initiate turns. Ultra reactive and sensitive.

• 10'2 x 32'' 183L // $2,899

Fast, reactive and controlled; the stable surfing all-rounder. A great option for those wanting the glide for cruising, solid stability from the width and improved surfing performance with the new shape upgrades.

Note: Fins Tri Set Included.
