What we say
Watch compared video
The New Gen R is easier to use than the last model. The lower, flatter deck works very well in open waters, waves and bumps, but it is still just as fast as the All Star on flatter waters. Advanced paddlers will love it, and lower level riders will find it fun and easier to use than the All Star in a wide range of conditions. Starboard have made great changes to this new board.
