| | | | Goya Surf 2009 Focus: Make one board that can get anybody windsurfing withing minutes and allow the rider to improve with the same board, learning to jibe, trim upwind or race downwind. Result: a balance board for begginers that can also be turned into the most used board in the quiver of the most advanced rider (also a great sup board). Francisco Goya: "Friends always ask me to show them how to windsurf, my daughter kept on asking me for a board we could go ride together and Im sure my son will follow in the next months, and I kept wanting a board that could do all that and also give me an accelerating ride any day, anywhere, no matter how light the winds got, and even using it as a full Stand-Up surfboard(It is the same volume distribution that is giving enough support for a beginner windsurfer enough for a beginner Stand up rider) The answer was a medium size with a balanced length and width that will allow anybody to get the feeling of windsurfing within minutes and still offer endless room to keep experiencing your progression in the sport for years to come."Volume 192L, Length 280cm, Width 85cm, Weight 13.5kg, Sail All sizes

| Fanatic Viper Freeride - Daggerboard - FOR YOUR FIRST STEPS AND EVERYTHING AFTER! Short and wide is not the answer! We listened to the experts when we were designing our Viper range of Beginner/Family boards - the vast network of windsurfing school organisations. This network provides us with great feedback to design boards that will both attract and keep beginners in our sport. These schools have immense experience with all types of beginners and their input directly influenced our Viper range - modern design concepts combined with proven experience. Long, stretched outlines and a finely-tuned CAD stretched power rocker line guarantee a long waterline. This is essential for maximal sub-planing performance and paves the way to first time planing experience. The perfect and equally balanced volume distribution makes Windsurfing fun and easy - from the very first step on the board. A daggerboard system vastly increases the sub planing performance by offering additional stability. This is the proven guarantee to staying upwind/coming back to the beach, critical for beginners and light wind cruising. Advanced windsurfers can also enjoy the Vipers as light wind Freeride boards, with plenty of footstrap positions to choose from and an optional tuning kit to further boost performance.

| Starboard Go and Go Sport It's been more than 10 years since the GO board was first introduced. These original wide-style, full EVA deck, all-round fun designs marked the beginning of the modern windsurfing era by bringing comfortable, accessible windsurfing to everyone, everywhere, anytime. With the new GO Sport models, these accessible and high performance shapes are now also available without full EVA decks, making them lighter and more responsive for the freeride windsurfer. Why go wide? With extra width, the GO boards simply give you more stability and early planing. With extra width also comes more power and early planing ability: as you progress, the GO boards give you some of the highest performance levels you can get from a windsurf board. With their full EVA deck, they provide exceptional comfort and the carry handles make them easy to transport. These are the secrets behind the GO board's success and its number one status as the World's most popular board over the last ten years: they are easy and comfortable, people can learn on them and yet they will grow with its rider as he or she progresses to the highest levels. The GO 144 starts to become more pure freeride orientated, yet it remains wide and stable enough for windsurfers that are already getting better. From this size and down, there are no more beginner footstrap options, only intermediate and advanced options.
The GO 133, the GO 122 down to the GO 111, are more performance orientated freeride machines. They are fast and fun, with a wide wind range, early planing performance and class leading stability. Multiple insert options remain, which allows progressing windsurfers to tune the board for maximum planing ease, or for more advanced windsurfers to tune the board for maximum power and performance.

| Starboard Go 155 and 175 The largest GO board, the GO 175, is a dedicated GO design that provides the most stability and it is the easiest to learn on. With its short length, its wide outline and when fitted with the supplied Shallow fin, it becomes a good platform for learning and progressing. It is also the GO size that has most racing like performance when fitted with the larger racing fin (also supplied), making it the most powerful and earliest planing GO model for more advanced windsurfers. With extra volume, it is also the perfect family board: kids can play on it, jump on board, learn, experienced adults can blast up and down with full power. The GO 175 has footstrap positions that will cater for the total beginner, progressing sailors and advanced windsurfers. The GO 155 is based on the same concept as the GO 175, but it is one size smaller making it the better choice for those who want a more fun freeriding board without that much compromise on stability and ease. Like the GO 175, the GO 155 has footstrap options to cater for the total beginner, progressing sailors and advanced windsurfers.

Starboard Rio The Rio is all about windsurfing for everyone, everywhere and everytime. Its unique design makes it great for first-timers, great for some lightwind fun and for all-round windsurfing. Whether you are an advanced rider or a beginner, whether you're looking for a simple light wind board or an all-wind board, the Rio is the easy choice. It glides effortlessly - the Rio's extended length and slender rockerline lets it glide on a long waterline, giving it more longitudinal stability and glide in light winds.
It gets planing easily and quickly - with its wide tail design, the board transitions quickly and smoothly into planing mode as the wind picks up.
It's easy to learn on - with its relatively wide shape, the Rio is extremely stable, making it easy for beginners to learn the basics and progress from there. The 57cm long daggerboard makes the board track upwind.
It's easy to progress on - the special contour deck design with footstraps close to the board's centerline makes it extremely easy and comfortable to step into the footstraps as you progress and start to sail with more power in the sail.
It offers high performance for advanced riders - the longer, narrower shape combined with the inboard heel-recesses and a soft daggerboard allows the board to power upwind off the leeward rail. Rio Small: Volume 175L, Length 269cm, Width 76.0cm, Tail 56.2cm, Weight 14.1kg, Sail size 2.0-9.50m

| F2 Discovery DiscoveryFun or no fun - the first few months will show if newcomers find joy in windsurfing. Hence, we have turned the Discovery into a plug & play board: Ascend - Have fun. But the Discovery is not an inflatable island. The board slides and jibes so that everyone inevitably puts on the "I am happy" smile. Retractable daggerboard for high breakover stability and groove constancy on all courses
Harmonic volume allocation for an easier up-hauling
Cut outs for a sportive driving feel and a free, dynamic sliding position
Mono concave in the deck - it automatically positions the one getting in the middle of the board. The ergonomic rear enables a foot position within. This prevents the board from toppling over to luv when planing
Freeride-oriented outline: It provides the Discovery with a stable water position in displacement drive and guarantees a fast learning success
A smooth EVA deck protects against grazes and bruises
