Starboard Wedge Deluxe DC 2023/4
2023 8.7 WEDGE available now!
SURF – A PADDLEBOARD DEDICATED TO SURF
Surfing real waves on an inflatable board is now more fun with better performance too!
The entire range has been thinned to 4” thick to make them even more manoeuvrable and faster down the line. Parabolic rail reinforcements significantly increase the stiffness of the boards, essential for improving the board’s responsiveness on bottom and top turns.
The all-new 8’7” x 32” is based off the shape of the composite Wedge in that same size.
Starboard provides extra speed on those bottom turns and still holds the down-the-line speed due to the edge release technology and smaller centre fin, which also increases the response of the board in turns. The double chamber has been repositioned closer to the tail to bring the stiffness right underneath the stance area. The design of the nose rocker also keeps your board from pearling during steep drops and radical manoeuvres.
What size is right for me?
8’7” x 32” Wedge – Based on the composite Wedge board of the same size, the width provides all the stability necessary, and the shorter length makes the board more manoeuvrable.
This year with Starboard Inflatables, the package comes with the 3 piece Starboard Enduro Carbon (UD) paddle.
Another bonus with buying a Starboard paddleboard is that they have a great environmental background and incentive as a Certified B Corporation. When purchasing a board with Starboard, they will plant 3 Mangrove trees (they draw down 3 x 336.5 kg CO2, more than 1 ton, over 25 years and this is more than 10X the board’s total carbon emissions) and they will pick up 1.1kg of ocean plastics!
New for 2023 -
Included on the Deluxe boards is the new Drop Fin Box. The new molding of the fin box creates 50% less drag on the board and 10% reduction in weight.
What does Deluxe Double Chamber mean?
Starboard offer a variety of constructions to their boards. The Deluxe range is their most advanced method with added stiffness to the board to compete along with hard paddleboards. The Double chamber element is the ultimate stiff board, with the added chamber, this board has the extra safety precaution of being able to float whilst deflated.

from 87 reviewsPrompt. delivery, worked as expected, one Blade sail repaired🙂
I ordered easily and the voucher arrived promptly. Also an email from the business was really nice.
Great equipment, decent price and very prompt delivery.
I have used this board on flat water in calm and very windy conditions. I really like this board it handles really well, is a pleasure to paddle and seems quite quick. one of the reasons for choosing this board was it is designed for lighter weight paddlers, it really does fit the bill in that respect. All in all a brilliant board. In addition the service I received from Poole Harbour Watersports was excellent.
Really prompt service, great choice of products, excellent.
Unfortunately I ordered the wrong size and had to return for an exchange, couldn’t speak highly enough of the service I received being kept updated along the way and the new coat being dispatched as soon as it was back in stock. Thank you
Cheapest you will find them and perfectly good!
