Starboard Airplane (2025)

Starboard Airplane Inflatable Windsurf Board

An inflatable windsurfing board that will actually plane, jibe, and go fast! The Starboard Airplane features stiff double chamber technology, invented by Starboard. Enhanced control with reduced thickness and ergonomic rail shape ensure comfortable full-on planing and performance.
Welded Woven drop stitch Technology; the next level of inflatable windsurf performance.
Double-layer, low-extension woven drop-stitch Fusion Welded technology adds stiffness, improves durability with a higher resistance to puncture, improves shape stability over time and reduces weight. New improved efficiency and reduced drag ensure easier planing. Enclosing the Airplane’s rear fin box permanently in the board streamlines the bottom shape, which improves early planing and top-end speed. The box is glued in place and no longer removable, which also makes the board easier to set up.

Starboard’s Rail Edge invention created the planing inflatable windsurfing board segment.
A proprietary 3D elastomer compound Rail Edge runs along the rails of the board, creating a defined edge that allows for a clean water release and higher speed, yet can fold and roll up. We’ve improved the Rail Edge to enhance grip while carve jibing.
