Starboard GEN-R 14’0″ x 25″

$35,000.00

The Gen-R is a key model for surf racing and paddle racing in general. Its slightly recessed deck has been optimized to provide excellent stability while remaining easy to use for beach starts and remounting the board. The lower rail height and reduced nose thickness are highly requested features, especially among our lighter riders, for technical racing, buoy turns, and easy handling in choppy conditions.

We believe the Gen-R fits perfectly between the Sprint model for flatwater and the All Star model for open ocean. Younger riders will also love this board for its speed and ease of use!

FASTER ACCELERATION

The low nose rocker and narrow nose outline help increase acceleration and overall flatwater efficiency. This acceleration is essential for technical racing, beach starts, and explosive sprints after buoy turns. The combination of a low nose rocker and narrow nose outline allows the board to move quickly through the water with less friction and drag, making the rapid acceleration and maneuvering needed to gain an advantage in competition and around buoy turns easier.

SOLID TURNS AND TAIL STABILITY

The wider tail outline, combined with the flat deck, makes it very comfortable to move around on the board while maintaining stability during turns.

NEW CUTTING NOSE

The narrow outline at the tip of the nose is designed to cut efficiently through both flatwater and ocean chop. The nose’s lower rocker shares its DNA with the Sprint, extending the waterline for faster acceleration and sustained glide. Although the low nose rocker helps the board engage bumps early, the rider should move back to trim the board when navigating through bumps.

NEW OPTIMIZED NOSE VOLUME

The nose volume is designed to handle moderate chop and perform in technical, surf, and flatwater racing. Overall, it is thinner than the All Star, with a thickness of approximately 4 cm.

NEW SEMI-RECESSED DECK

The deck is designed with a slightly lower standing position for greater stability. At the same time, the sides are low, making beach starts and remounting the board easier.

NEW ROUNDED RAILS

Smooth, rounded rails run along the entire length of the board. This keeps the board balanced in choppy conditions and predictable in surf and downwind conditions. The rounded rails are wide for greater stability and balance.

NEW FLAT BOTTOM

The ideal bottom shape for a wide range of conditions, the flat bottom delivers speed in everything from surf to sprints. It provides predictable control in both flat and choppy water.

NEW WIDE TAIL

Features a wide tail with a direct release, allowing the board to release water more easily and make sharper, faster turns. This design enables greater maneuverability and control on waves.

NEW SINGLE DRAINAGE HOLE

The single central drainage hole allows water on the semi-recessed deck to drain completely. Although very little water collects on the deck while paddling, the central drainage hole channels excess water out of the cockpit. The recessed carbon drain minimizes drag for a clean release.

NEW MULTIPLE HANDLE POSITIONS

The Gen-R specializes in technical and beach racing. Its handles are adjustable via a screw-in system, allowing riders to customize their position.

NEW 10″ FIN BOX

The Gen-R is our first racing model featuring a 10-inch fin box, allowing riders to fine-tune their setup to suit their preferences. We equipped the Gen-R with a larger fin box for greater adjustability. Short races benefit from positioning the fin farther forward for quick turns, while longer races may benefit from moving it farther back in the box. The setup varies for downwind conditions, as some riders may prefer more or less tracking when surfing chop.

NEW SLIMMER PROFILE AND LIGHTWEIGHT CONSTRUCTION

The Gen-R’s key design criteria focus on its lightweight construction and slimmer profile to improve acceleration, ease of beach starts, surf performance, and buoy turns, while providing optimal control in crosswinds and side chop. These features make it a highly anticipated model among competitors!

NEW BUNGEE TIE-DOWN

Keeps your gear and luggage secure and dry. Available in 14’0″ × 27″ and 14’0″ × 29″.

NEW PREPREG CARBON FIN

The new range of fins made from 3K biaxial pre-preg carbon promises outstanding performance in terms of speed and stiffness. The fin’s trailing edge is sharpened to 0.4 mm, improving hydrodynamics and reducing water resistance, potentially increasing speed and efficiency.

NEW BOARD SOCK

A protective cover designed to shield the board from dust, scratches, and UV damage. Made from stretch polyester, it adapts to different board shapes. It helps keep the board in optimal condition and features a secure drawstring closure.
