Starboard All Star SUP 2027 continues its legacy as one of the most successful and versatile race paddleboards ever created. Designed to excel across flatwater, technical race courses, ocean conditions, downwind runs, and beach racing, the All Star delivers the perfect balance of speed, stability, and control for paddlers ranging from ambitious amateurs to world-class athletes.
Refined through years of championship-winning development, the latest All Star introduces a new Hybrid Dugout Design that combines the stability advantages of a recessed standing area with the freedom and control of a flat tail deck. The result is a race board that feels faster, more forgiving, and more adaptable across a wider range of water conditions.
A thinner overall profile reduces wind resistance and board weight, while the redesigned tail improves water drainage and stability during buoy turns, downwind surfing, and technical racing. Rounded nose rails increase forgiveness in side chop and crosswinds, making the board easier to manage when conditions become challenging.
With 14 gold medals won across the last three ICF World Championships, the All Star has proven itself as one of the most dominant all-water race boards ever produced. Whether you’re training, competing, or pushing your personal bests, the 2027 All Star is built to perform at the highest level.
