Hi all

I just bought a brand new starboard allstar 14 × 25. Season 2015 from a deal with a online store.

Board have 2 strange things :

1. Center handle is too far forward
2. Board flex a lot when I jump back and forward

Board don't look any kind of damaged, is brand new.

I'm a bit concerned about such flex....

Any experience about flex?

Thanks

Paco

IMO the flex is normal on these boards.. Try not to jump forward and back.. Try to get both feet on the center line and shuffle forward and back on the centerline..

How heavy are you because being near or over the upper end of the recommended weight limit will increase the amount of board flex..
