TOURING INFLATABLE
An Explorer’s Favourite Transportation
The overall balanced glide experience and premium features are what have made Starboard’s Touring paddle boards become the world’s highest-rated by magazines and customers’ favourite worldwide.
The wider nose and squarer tail make the Touring inflatable paddle board more stable, especially for harsh conditions like side chop and moderate wind. Experience the Starboard difference even before entering the water, these lightweight paddleboards feature the trademark Starboard shoulder carry strap which allows you to effortlessly carry it to the water, with both hands-free!
The Rail Edge Technology effectively releases water at the tail and reduces drag by creating a laminar flow behind the board. The Welded Rail Technology mechanically joins the deck and hull, making it a stronger and longer-lasting longer iSUP.
LET’S GO EXPLORING.
WELDED RAIL TECHNOLOGY
-
Every Starboard inflatable paddle board features welded rails.
-
The Welded Rail Technology creates a complete airtight, mechanically bonded seam without the risk of glue weakening over time. This makes Starboard inflatable paddle boards stronger and longer lasting.
THE OUTLINE SHAPE
The boards have straight outline and relative narrow midsection, so you can keep the paddle closet to the board. This makes you feel more comfortable and stable while you also track better and glide faster.
VOLUMINOUS NOSE AND SQUARER TAIL
It helps you pop through chop, carry some gear and increase the boards stability, while the squared tail creates a platform to make fun step back turns.
TOURING S
- If you want a faster sensation, the new Touring S has a slenderer design at 28” width, this is great if you are light or have a good balance.
TOURING L
- If you want a more stable and solid feel, carry more gear or are a heavier rider, the new Touring L is your choice
NEW MULTIPLE CARRY HANDLES
- For the heavy duty explorers to make the transport of the boards easier, especially if they are fully loaded.
- On all 14’0″ Deluxe boards, we have added new handles on the rails, next to the cargo area, as well as on the nose.
- On the 11’6″ and 12’6″ Deluxe boards, there is a new handle on the nose.
- All our Touring boards, including the Zen range are equipped with the tail handle and the center carry handle.
2IN1 SHOULDER CARRY STRAP & PADDLE HOLDER
- Velcro loops to attach your paddle.
- Easier to carry as the board simply hangs effortlessly on the shoulder and frees up your hand to multi-task, hold your coffee, or phone.
- When not in use, the strap sits flat on the board so it doesn’t drag in the water.
- The Zen construction only comes with 2 D-rings. The strap needs to be purchased separately aftermarket.
RAIL EDGE TECHNOLOGY
Creates a sharp edge for the water to release smoothly for optimal glide and speed.
MAGNETIC BOTTLE HOLDER
- Patented revolutionary system that magnetically attaches your bottle to your board.
- Only available with Deluxe Double Chamber
- *Click on the picture to watch the video
BUNGEE TIE DOWN

TIKHINE ART OPTION
ART YOU CAN RIDE

RE-COVER BAG

- Hiking strap is ergonomically curved to ensure good stability on the shoulders.
FREE LIGHTWEIGHT LEASH

- Soft cushioning means it will flatten when stood on.
- Easy to attach to the leash ring without needing any excess rope loop.
DELUXE CONSTRUCTION
STIFFER, LIGHTER, MORE RESPONSIVE
- The Fusion Woven dropstitch makes the Deluxe boards extra strong and stiff.
- The Heat Welded rails create a complete airtight, mechanically bonded seam without the risk of glue weakening over time. Making the board stronger and last longer.
- Galvanized 2000D rails increase strength and stiffness.
- The Double Chamber (optional) brings the inflatable boards one step closer to a hard board feeling. The Double Chamber stiffens the board significantly, thanks to the double side walls around the second chamber. This chamber also offers extra safety flotation for any emergencies.

Learn How to Choose a Paddle Board
| First, try to narrow your search down to a category based upon your priorities for paddling. |
| How do you plan on using the SUP? |
| Recreational, Fitness/Distance, Fitness/Yoga, Fishing |
| Who will be using the SUP? |
| Single User, Multiple users, Youth/"leave at the lake" Use? |
| Where will the board be used? |
| Lake, River, "taking it traveling"? |
| Where will the board be stored? |
| Indoor Rack, Outdoor Rack, "I have no room to store a board?" |
| Stand Up Paddle Board (SUP) Categories |
| All Around / Recreational / Planing Boards All-Around boards offer a traditional planing bow, rounded and are generally 10'-12' in length and 30"-36" in width. These boards are great for beginners, but also great for any paddler who is not looking for paddling long distances or racing environments. Planing boards offer stability for yoga or fishing. |
| Touring / Race / Distance / Displacement Boards Touring boards have a displacement bow, pointed to displace water as you paddle. Displacement boards are generally 12'-14' in length and generally narrower than a planing board. The displacement bow is more efficient and requires less effort to paddle longer distances. There are also hybrid displacement boards which are wider and thicker that provide more stability in a displacement hull. |
| Hard Boards versus Inflatable Boards |
| Plastic (rotomolded) Boards These boards have a durable exterior, least expensive but very heavy. These boards are great for when multiple users will be using the board and likely to be dragged or dropped. These boards do not have a center core, and over time may bow in the center or become water-logged. |
| Hard Boards - Most common boards There are various Hard Board construction so weights may vary also. Construction may include Fiberglass/Epoxy, Graphite and Carbon. These boards are great for individual users who will be able to control the usage of the board. |
| Inflatable Boards There are various Inflatable Board constructions, but weights do not vary as much. These are very popular boards. They are quite durable, great for families and guests, traveling and storage is not really a factor. These boards generally come with a storage bag and pump. |

| FUSION WOVEN DROPSTITCH EXTRA LIGHT, STRONG, & STIFF • The new woven dropstitch makes the DELUXE a solid winner at lightweight. • Top and bottom layers are fused in a single, glue-less process. • Woven fabric weights less because it uses less material than conventional dropstitches. • And because it stretches less, it holds more tension and keeps the shape of the board. • What does it mean for you? A stiffer and lighter board with a better reflex sensation. • Not available on River board. River models feature Linear double layer technology. Bombproof double layer skin merged with extra stiff Linear drop stitch, built for a rocky ride. |  | LINEAR DROPSTITCH MORE RESPONSIVE, STIFFER, & LIGHTER. FEEL IT! Linear alignment of space yarns, oriented only in warp direction ( the direction of the board’s length), maximizing the stiffness and response. Linear dropstich also secures the board’s shape better over time compared to standard knitted dropstitch. Linear dropstich with single layer coating is the lightest offering in our collection. What does it mean for you? An ultra light board with the best stiffness that single layer technology can offer, you can feel the acceleration. |  | |||
| WELDED RAIL TECHNOLOGY BONDED FOR LIFE • Welded Rail Technology turns 2 pieces of material into a single solid unit, resulting in an extra-strong mechanical bond. • A mechanical bond is stronger, lasts longer and is better for the environment. • Welded Rail Technology creates a complete airtight seam without the risk of glue weakening over time. |  | |||||
| 2000D GALVANIZED STRINGER Galvanized 2000 D rails increase the strength of the board, together with the 3K compression bands. (3K bands only available with Double Chamber option) |  | |||||
| OPTIONAL DOUBLE CHAMBER TECHNOLOGY SAFER AND STIFFER. FEEL IT! DOUBLE I-BEAM STRINGER – ULTRA STIFF The innovative chamber doubles the sidewalls and acts like rollable I-beams. Starting just behind the standing area and continuing towards the front, the chamber is placed in the most critical area for flex and reduces deflection by 1.8 cm. The feeling of paddling with the stiff double I-beam stringer is getting very similar to a hard board, propelling inflatable technology one step closer to a “hard board” feeling. A must have for riders over 85 kg. EXTRA FLOATATION – ULTRA STIFF The chamber offers up to 42 liters of safety floatation, with 14 liters even in the smallest boards and require only 10 PSI. Starboard pioneered Double Chamber Construction in the 2013 Ocean Rescue board. Future coast guard regulations will possibly request this safety arrangement for inflatable board use in open waters. | | |||||
