New concave and cupped blade shape integrating the very latest from Starboard’s World Champion Lima paddles.
Slim profile, high stiffness and lower weight. The large tip area allows for max forward motion even if the blade is not totally submerged. Never before has our entry-level paddle been this close to a top-notch performance paddle.
KEY FEATURES
THE CONCAVE & CUPPED BLADE
-
The concave on the power face is guiding the water throughout the blade controlling the wobbling and increasing the water flow speed.
-
The edge defining the concave starts round-shaped at the tip of the blade to separate the water smoothly. It then becomes sharper to dictate the water its path and stabilize the blade.
-
All your power is transferred in a straight forward motion as you don’t need to worry about paddle alignment in the water anymore.
SLIM PROFILE
-
Slim profile allowing you to pull the blade very close to the rail of the board, giving it a really nice line.
LARGE TIP AREA

Allows for max forward motion even if the blade is not totally submerged.
