12 Starboard Evo 71 Wood

When the Evo was introduced in 2003, it changed the way waves could be ridden. The shorter length boards and wide noses made wave sailing much easier in ideal and less-than-ideal conditions. In 2012, the Starboard Evos are able to be ridden as a single fin or twin-fin setup adding to this board's versatility. If you want to rip apart waves with slashing turns as well as new school freestyle moves then the Evo is a clear choice.

Wood Technology: Developed by Jean Louis Colmas in 1984, Wood Technology became Starboard's trademark construction since 1995. Starboard's production Wood boards set the standard in lightweight sandwich technology then, weighing in at a kilo under the competition, yet with higher impact resistance. A sheet of 0.6 mm Australian plantation pine wood forms the full outer shell of the board. Wood's unique properties are its natural rigidity, superior resistance to compression and higher energy absorption compared to carbon.

Advantages: lighter weight, rigid flex. More impact resistant than Carbon.
