STARBOARD SUPS INFLATABLE PADDLEBOARD TECHNOLOGIES EXPLAINED

November 12, 2019

“What makes a Starboard SUP Inflatable Paddleboard different? We make our boards with industry-leading inflatable technologies to give you the strongest, most durable and stiffest iSUP’s on the market.

Durability ~ Welding Technology Glue is never forever. Starboard’s new inflatable welding technology uses a special heat welding technique to mechanically bond two separate pieces of PVC into a single solid unit. Heat-welded PVC creates a mechanical bond that’s stronger, lasts longer and is better for the environment.

Stiffness ~ Woven Technology The new woven dropstitch technology is used on the top and the bottom of the board. The process starts with a glue-free PVC lamination. The new weave provides a structure for the polyester yarns – which gives the board its shape. The weave has less give than the traditional knitting method. Knitted fibres have soft and stretchy properties, whereas this new weaving is superior in stiffness, reflex and rigidity.”
