Starboard Carve – Freeride Windsurf Board
Easy planting, automatic jibe and total control
The Starboard Carve 2025 is designed to offer a smooth, fast and intuitive windsurfing experience. Each size has been designed to suit different skill levels and water conditions, ensuring immediate planing, automatic jibe and absolute control .
The larger sizes offer an extremely easy and fluid glide, while the intermediate sizes combine the agility of a small board with the stability of a large one. The more compact versions, on the other hand, offer a sporty feel with greater speed and control in strong winds.
