Starboard Spice Limited Series - 2024

The Starboard Spice is an all-new wave range that gives you incredible rail carving, impressive speed through sections and instant drive out of turns. The design brief of the Starboard Spice focused on offering more performance and progression than the Wedge while being more user-friendly and forgiving than the Pro. The all-wave performance of the Spice allows it to handle a range of conditions, from small beach breaks to overhead point breaks. From light to heavy, enthusiasts to pros, the Spice range offers a size for all.

This is the sort of board that is worth choosing carefully, because the right shape can make paddling feel easy and rewarding, while the wrong one can feel hard work from day one.

Where it sits in the range

This sits in the more surf-oriented part of the Starboard range. Compared with a touring or all-round board, it gives you more manoeuvrability and a looser feel on a wave face, but you give away some straight-line glide and flat-water ease.

• The Starboard Spice is an all-new wave range that gives you incredible rail carving, impressive speed through sections and instant drive out of turns. The design brief of the Starboard Spice focused on...
• The small gaps between the pads give you multiple corners to wedge your feet against, providing the rider additional grip and more control to drive the board harder through turns. The diamond grooving is...
• The angle of the bevel helps you toll the rail effortlessly, making the board very responsive to pump on the wave face and sink through carving turns.
• Creates a break in the rail line, maintaining stability forwards, while narrowing behind the wing to offer much more manoeuvrability.
• The honeycomb pad structure makes this design truly stand out. Not only does it look unique and bene ts from a reduction in weight from a full pad, we believe it offers one of the best grips we have ever used.

Spice Limited Series - 2024 makes the most sense for paddlers whose priorities match its shape and intended use. If you want help getting the right size or deciding between this and another Starboard model, our honest advice is to compare the options before buying rather than guessing.

That depends on the exact shape. Some Starboard boards are confidence-building first purchases, while others are more specialised and reward a bit more experience. If you are unsure, ask us and we will tell you plainly whether this is the right fit or whether another model would make the learning curve easier.

Yes. If you are choosing between sizes, shapes or constructions, our Woodmill SUP Test Centre is one of the best ways to get the decision right first time. It is particularly helpful with Starboard boards because the differences between models are very noticeable on the water.
