8'6"......
132L.....
Thinned out rails.......
Pulled in tail ........
Starlight carbon inegra $1799!!

You guys are speakin my language!!!

I will go grab a demo as soon as my old man f***ed up back rights itself

Think it's just the rails that are carbon inegra ... interested in the volume and shape of the new 8' hypernut.

Yeah saw the new starboards in the flesh the other day and must say the new starlite construction looked amazing. Boards look very similar to last years carbons and they have the sexy carbon rails on. Weights seemed very good and I think the handle is different, not bad for $1,800

Hi Mickmc . The only changes to the 2017 hypernut range , is the 8'6 has been redesigned and a 9' version introduced. Plus the new construction,with inegra rails . Plus cosmetic changes ., the all look awesome , with a price reduction across the starboard range can't go wrong with starboard 2017

Any changes to the pro range?

Yeah the Pro,s are totally reworked. Bit more beef around the middle and the noses are super thin and dawn in, think Hokua. Also they have a pin tail that screws off to make it a squash tail, No I am not joking !!!!! The Pro,s are also available in the starlight construction which makes them attractive at $1,800.

Cool! Any changes in volume?

Might be coming in late but I have had HN (8 foot X 31.5) since Nov last year and I love it. Easy to paddle and catches whatever I go for. I think carbon version really works and tough as nails. No idea about sunover speed but if it's better then the HN it must be insane. Using winter gear at the moment so extra weight and it still floats me at 100 kegs plus gear.
I have no inclination to buy another board and i try and get out every day. My focus this year is to get my back foot back more and really crank up the turns off the lip.

Thanks Stand Up Paddle, the 2017 8'6" x 31.5" Starboard Hyper Nut Carbon board rocks!! Fun demo times today.
