Starboard Sprint 14 ft Wood Carbon - 2022

The Starboard Sprint 14 foot Wood Carbon has been heavily revised and improved for 2022 to ensure that it remains one of the fast paddleboards in the world. In the hands of elite paddlers like world champion Michael Booth, the Starboard Sprint has proved just how versatile it really is. While we are thrilled to see the return of popular widths like the 25” inch return to the Sprint line up in Wood Carbon as it puts a high end, easily accessible performance in the hands of those weighing from 55 – 105kg overall.

The largest difference in the Starboard Sprint is its new box nose that slices through the water with even greater ease while ensuring these boards remains remarkably stable in a variety of conditions. While the overall outline of the Sprint has been narrowed, reducing the wetted surface area and therefore drag, enabling you to accelerate faster and maintain a high top speed with great ease. Combined with the shallower bottom single concave, the lift is increased and so its top speed. The tail of the Sprint has also been raised helping the paddler to lift the nose sooner; perfect for buoy turns and when catching downwind bumps.

The Starboard Sprint Wood Carbon is Starboard’s best value construction while delivering winning race shapes at a competitive weight. The Wood Carbon construction uses an Australian Pine layer for reinforcement across the full length of the standing area. While Unidirectional Carbon is also used to provide greater durability and stiffness. The rails of all Wood Carbon constructions are also treated to UD carbon to increase longitudinal strength and stiffening.

The Starboard Sprint 2022 Features:

• NEW OUTLINE: Despite the outline width being wider than the comparable 2021 model, it is faster overall due to the sharp slicing nose.
• NEW WIDE MIDSECTION: The wider midsection through to the tail gives stability and helps control the nose tracking during sprint starts and turbulent waters.
• NEW THIN SLICING NOSE: Optimised for speed in flatwater, Less drag, better efficiency, Tall profile also allows for great performance in small bumps.
• NEW CURVED RAILS: The rails are angled inwards, with a low apex for buoyancy and float, while the top of the rail is angled inwards to prevent water resistance. The inward rail results in the waterline of the board feeling a narrower surface, reducing friction for a faster longer lasting glide
• NEW ROUND HULL DESIGN: Starboard's fastest and most efficient hull design ever with a unique round rail low apex design creates a fast and smooth ride with minimal resistance.
• NEW SELF-VENTILATING VALVE: A self-ventilating air valve is available on the board. This valve is self-ventilating so, it should not be touched or removed – otherwise, you are at risk of damaging the valve system.

The 2022 Starboard Sprint Wood Carbon comes in 2 different sizes:
