Windsurfing Boards

The Fanatic Viper is widely recognised as the most successful beginner windsurfing board of all time - the board of choice for over 200 windsurfing schools worldwide. Every detail has been refined to make learning to windsurf as fast and easy as possible, and to perfectly enhance your progression throughout the stages of the sport. The overall width provides excellent stability for uphauling, while the length and parallel rails keep it tracking well in a straight line when at lower speeds. As you work your way to stronger wind, various footstrap options will help you harness more speed, while the retractable daggerboard and classic pintail will provide you with pure planing pleasure and carving gybes.

The performance of the Gecko is best measured by the size of smile it puts on your face. The Gecko is designed with just two objectives in mind – make freeriding easy and make it fun.

The new 2021 Starboard Foil X 125 size slots in between the 105 and 145, becoming Starboard's R&D team’s instant favourite. All three sizes have new cutaways running down the rails to reduce tail volume to allow the rider to sink the tail and pop up onto the foil. An adjusted nose rockerline make the boards more forgiving when touching down mid-jibe by helping you bounce straight back up. The new mini carrry-handle on the bottom makes it easier to carry board and sail together. New centred footstrap positions unlock freestyle and jumping abilities.

What are the recommended foils for the FOIL X?

The Foil X are compact foil boards designed to foil with smaller, lighter sails. On the foil side, riders can choose between lifty, maneuverable foils like the Starboard Foil SuperCruiser or the faster, high performance foils like the GT-R Plus. The SuperCruiser offers early take-off, awesome maneuverability and floating foil jibes. The GT-R offers higher top speeds and faster acceleration.

THE FOIL X 125 

Dimensions: 190x67cm, 125 liters

Four new shapes made the cut this year: the 63, 72, 77 and 83. 63: added concave increases confort on this high wind model. Strap positions have been moved back to reduce wetted-surface area to give a board that is more free and always in control.72: the straps are also placed further back. The flat section of the bottom has been reduced on the sides and refined cutaways help the board to fly freer and reach higher top speeds. 77: a more prononced vee at 90cm frees up the board and trims the board more over the fin, improving acceleration and top speed. 83: larger cutaways and a smoother rockerline helps the board fly over chop more easily and reduce wetted-surface area for higher speeds in medium to light winds and choppy waters.

The Starboard Wingboard is a special board. It is a state of the art learning tool for Wingboarding. The 10'4 length provides the glide and ability to stay upwind. The thick rails, concave bottom and overall volume make it super stable. Footstrap inserts are placed perfectly for the first Wing classes, helping to find the right foot positioning.

This board is designed and tested for Wingboarding, and is at the same time a fun and stable 10’4” x 32” 220L GO paddle board. As a Windsurfing board it’s easy to learn on and you will enjoy an amazing glide in lighter winds.

CENTER TUTTLE BOX

• This board is fitted with a centre Tuttle box (Drake Shallow), in the middle of the board.
• This centre fin helps prevent drifting downwind when windsurfing and wing-boarding. It gives you the traction you need to glide forwards when powered.

The Fanatic Falcons are designed for total control at every situation you’re facing on a race course. This winning lineup goes into the 2021 season with a new addition, the 107 – a smaller version of our successful Falcon 115 – ideal for lighter riders.

JP was one of the first leading windsurf brands to introduce specialised boards for foiling. Now we offer a line of three dedicated foil boards in two different technologies. Popular since their introduction, the shapes are perfect for all levels of foil windsurfers from first timers to performance oriented foil riders. The 120, 135 and 150 remain unchanged and represent a balanced mix of fast, performance-oriented boards which are easily accessible with user-friendly all-round appeal.

JP’s unique foil all-rounder ! Apparently the market has been waiting eagerly for this concept as the sales started brilliantly. These very compact shapes have little to no limitations regarding the range of use and suit the whole windsurf foil community because fun is their main target. Everybody will be able to enjoy foiling as easily as possible – in every aspect of this new discipline. Slightly longer that comparable designs on the market, they offer more ease and accessibility. And now, novelties upgrade this line: Specially adapted to wing foiling, the boards now feature an elongated pad and additional footstrap plugs further forward. The brand-new, small model, the 105, suits lighter riders and everybody who wants a more playful and nimble toy. The board to enjoy foil fun – easy!

Starboard’s Foil Freerides have become our best-selling boards. What makes them so popular? Their design formula is simple:  fly at maximum reaching speeds with minimum fuss – foil jibe with speed while staying in total control. What more do you really need? Available in two sizes: 125 and 150 liters.

The 2021 Starboard Kode is avaible in Two new sizes, two fin sets right out of the box: the new 2021  Kodes are our fastest  freewave boards in single-fin mode and our best onshore wave boards yet in tri-fin mode. Supercharge your ride across the widest range of conditions.

Dimensions: 220x95cm. 196 liters

The 2021 Fanatic Bee is the ultimate watersports-weapon. Fanatic packed four different dimensions of pure fun into one board: SUP Surfing, SUP Foiling, Wing Foiling and Windsurf Foiling – you decide on the setup you ride. Foiling has brought a new dimension into watersports and adds multiple options of having fun in marginal conditions. Problem is – you can’t do everything. Or can you? The Fanatic Bee combines three foiling disciplines and adds regular SUP surfing as a bonus. If you’re into SUP surfing and think about adding foiling to your repertoire, the 2021 Bee is made for you! If it’s shallow you plug fins in, if you find long rolling swell you mount your foil and start to fly. If the wind picks up, you either use a wing or a windsurfing sail as your engine for endless flight time. The options are vast and the feedback from our testers is brilliant – throughout all disciplines!

The new Severne Nano takes the compact waveboard concept to the next level.
Experiments with rocker, bottom contours, surface area distribution, and fin placement have delivered significant improvements in stability and all-around sailability. On top of that, acceleration and tight radius turning have also been enhanced with the addition of multiple channels in the tail. Aesthetics are aggressive. Performance is electrifying. Versatility is massive.
Inspired by Tomo’s new-school surfboards, the Nano is a fresh wavesailing sensation.
Its parallel rails mean the width is narrower than on a traditional board, which makes it feel like you’re sailing a smaller board. The efficiency of the parallel rails means you’re up and planing as if you were riding a bigger board.
Initially conceived as a small wave, onshore biased design, the Nano proved to be so much more:
INCREDIBLY VERSATILE
Fast enough for onshore, stable enough for high speed, down-the-line wall rides. And then with the option of Thruster drive and power or Quad manoeuvrability.

The original Gravity Control System was introduced by Starboard as a revolutionary concept and has helped propel our iSonics and Formula boards to multiple world titles.
The 2020 Starboard Carve boards adopts the same system, making your sail more vertical for better control, improving jibing performance by providing more rail pressure, providing more grip, more power and more control while carving. The center of gravity is lowered so you feel locked in, stable and ready to accelerate with every gust.
The secret to a whole new level of freeride performance: a 15 cm extended flat section in the rockerline. This gives a longer, more efficient planing surface that helps get you planing, keep planing and accelerate more with every gust.

The 101’s length was reduced at both the nose and tail. The extended flat section on this board was fine-tuned to be slightly shorter along the sides of the board, giving the 101 a particularly slippery and fast feeling in stronger winds.

CARVE 111, 122
Again the overall lengths are reduced both in the nose and tail. Further 111 and 122 outline refinements reduces overall overall width by 1cm and widens the tail area by 1cm. Result: improved jibing reaction, boosted control and enhanced acceleration in the upper wind-range.

CARVE E 133
A total of 8cm was reduced off the new 133 E’s nose and tail. The new outline that is narrower overall by 1cm and 1cm wider in the tail area improves jibing reaction, boosts control and improves acceleration in the upper wind-range

CARVE E 144
The 144E’s length was reduced both in the nose and tail by a total of 9cm. The outline was further refined adding 1cm width in the tail area to boost control and improve acceleration in the upper wind-range.

Since it's dawn the JP Australia Magic Ride line featured a magic combination of ease, stability and good performance. The second generation featured more life and agility. Now, the all-new 3rd generation is here! The shape adjustments make it significantly easier to control at speed and through the chop.
Consequently, these boards ride smoother and gybe more easily and willingly into and through turns. On the water the boards surprise you with a sporty and energetic character which is incredibly easy to handle. The improved magic of these boards pushes the performance and fun factor to the next level.
