Why Starboard works so well in the UK
Confidence in messy water: UK sessions aren’t always glassy. Starboard’s stability-focused shapes and refined rails help you stay upright and keep moving in chop and boat wake.
Construction choices that actually matter: from durable entry-level builds to premium carbon options, you can pick the right balance of weight, stiffness and budget.
A complete ecosystem: boards, paddles, fins and bags are designed to complement each other, so your setup feels dialled rather than “thrown together”.

Starboard FAQs
Which Starboard board is best for beginners?
If you’re new, prioritise stability and an easy shape over “speed”. Tell us your height/weight and where you’ll paddle (river, harbour, sea), and we’ll point you to a sensible first board size and construction.
Inflatable vs hard board: what should I choose?
Inflatables are brilliant for storage, transport and family use. Hard boards give maximum performance and feel (especially for surf and racing). If you’re unsure, tell us your use-case and storage situation and we’ll help you choose.
Do I need to upgrade my fin?
A fin upgrade can be one of the biggest “quick wins” for tracking and overall feel. If you tell us the board model and what you want to improve (tracking, stability, speed), we’ll recommend the right style of fin.
What paddle should I pair with my Starboard board?
It depends on your paddling style and goals. Generally: a more “race” shape suits speed and distance, while a more forgiving all-round blade suits casual cruising and mixed conditions. Share your board and typical sessions and we’ll match a paddle properly.
