Starboard Whopper Lite Tech - 2025

The Whopper is ideal for first-time paddlers learning to catch waves and versatile enough for heavier riders to shred. Redesigned with thinner rails at the nose and tail, it features a Spice-inspired wing tail for sharper, more responsive turns, along with a new rocker line for faster down-the-line speed. The added nose kick helps with easy recovery while learning to surf.

Starboard's best-selling range has been completely reimagined, combining the best features of both the Spice and Whopper models.

Super Stable, High-Volume Range

Designed for maximum float and fun for all riders! With widths ranging from 33 to 36 inches, these boards offer outstanding stability. The wider, flat deck enhances balance, helping you conserve energy and focus on catching more waves.

The Starboard Whopper Lite Tech - Features:

• NARROWER NOSE OUTLINE: Allows you to paddle faster and straighter, minimising paddle contact on the nose. Both the narrower and thinner nose rails reduce catching during turns.
• 5 FIN SETUP: All three sizes features a 5-fin setup, providing the flexibility to customise your riding style with options for both 4+1 and 2+1 fin options.
• BOARD SOCK INCLUDED: Reduces paper waste and protects your board from dust, scratches, and UV damage. Made of stretchable polyester, it fits various board shapes and has a secure drawstring closure.
