Another incredible test for the Stype. German Surf mag gave this board 11/10 for speed!
The German Surf Reviews are widely regarded as the most influential on the planet so this is a great result for Starboard and a fantastic option for Riders chasing a Fast light to medium wind all rounder.
here is part of the review:
"The "S" stands for sporty, stiffy and super demanding.
The Surf tester rated the board as a "race machine for lightwind conditions", which testifies homage and respect in the same moment.
Fired with big sails the S-type board works great and feels super sporty already in light winds - and the feeling does not deceive.
With the big 48 cm long Drake Freeride fin, the board flies in front of the rest of the field -"
