StarBoard Wedge 2022

Wedge Paddle Board The all-new Wedge line upgrades the previous range of Wide Point boards. These boards offer pro-level performance and feel without compromising stability or volume. All boards are 32’’ wide to provide float and stability, making them ideal for heavier riders. This versatile range performs in big to small conditions and is best suited for beginner and intermediate riders. Are You Ready to Surf Like a Pro, Yet Have the Ease and Comfort of a Wider Board? SUP Boarder Magazine Says: "We were blown away by the performance capabilities of the Wedge. The board feels a lot smaller and compact than the specifications make it out to be, thanks to the pulled-in tail, consistent rocker line, bottom contours, and thinner rail profile. The Wedge could well be a SUP surfing quiver killer for beginner to intermediate SUP surfers." SUP International Magazine Says: "This 9’2” Wedge demonstrates the best hiding of volume we’ve yet experienced, both on sight and on the water. The easy take-off gives way to a smooth, rail-engaged bottom turn happily free from the clatter and excess speed that trouble some wider surf shapes. The tail response is light, and the Wedge responds like a board 20 liters smaller. If high wave count, time on the wave, and fool-proof stability are what you’re looking for, the Wedge is it." Features Narrow Nose Outline The narrow nose outline helps you generate speed, reduces the chance of nose-catching through turns, and fits better into tighter wave pockets. Low Nose Rocker Helps enter waves easily and early. Thin Rail Profile Thinner rails on the 8’7” and 9’2” provide pro-level performance with faster surfing speeds, better grip, and enhanced turning abilities. These thinner rails are inspired by the Longboard range for an ultra-responsive and reactive feel. Mono Concave Generates lift, drive, and speed as it channels water from nose to tail, transitioning to double concave for sensitive rail-to-rail turning and ending with a vee tail for reactive pivot turns. Rounded Pin Tail The new rounded pin tail maximizes turning ability in these wider models, making it easier to engage and sink the tail for faster turns with more drive. Fin Setup The thruster fin setup provides straight-line tracking on flat water and adds drive and control in surf. The 8'7" model supports both thruster and quad setups, where the quad setup offers fast acceleration and down-the-line speed. New Self-Ventilating Valve A self-ventilating air valve is available on the board. This valve should not be touched or removed to avoid potential damage. Construction: Limited Series Timeless Look, Solid Performance Twin T-stringers made from glass fiber are positioned on the deck and bottom for increased strength against breakage in surf. Additional 200g glass wraps around the rails to reinforce against paddle impact and prevent buckling. The deck includes reinforced biaxial glass and Australian pine for resistance against dents and impact. Multiple layers of glass fiber wrap around the nose and tail for added strength.
