What we say
What the brand says
“The SPORTSTER family is also growing:
The proven SPORTSTER concept has received two new additions for 2015.
We added the 11’4″x29″ for the lighter riders and the SPORTSTER TOURING 12’0″x32″ for the bigger riders or the relaxed cruises.
STABLE AND FAST
The SPORTSTERs can be either no-compromise full-on race boards for the bigger guys or relaxed touring shapes for the lighter paddleboarders.
SPORTSTER
A user-friendly race board, designed as the perfect vehicle for distance paddling.
For most amateur racers they will be faster than full-on race boards as they are more stable and easier to handle than race boards. Furthermore for the big guys they will work better than the RACEs due to the added stability of the wider shape. They work great in anything from really flat water to rough conditions. They feel at home on lakes, rivers and the ocean and are fantastic for core work out and fitness paddling.
Based on race board designs they come with a low displacement piercing nose which cuts through the water like a knife. As the scoop rocker line is based on the RACE concept it provides for the maximum waterline. The thin hull ensures a low standing position, which allows you to transfer all the paddling power into a forward momentum. The rounded rails are forgiving, and do not get affected by sideways chop or wind.
This proven shape concept has received two new additions for 2015: We added the SPORTSTER 11’4″x29″ for the lighter riders and the SPORTSTER TOURING 12’0″x32” for the bigger riders or the relaxed cruises.
SPORTSTER Ð OPEN OCEAN
The SPORTSTER Open Oceans primary goal is to be able to take advantage of the open ocean swells. It must be easy to catch a swell while maintaining speed to stay upon them, navigating them as long as possible and connect easily to the next swell. The SPORTSTER Open Ocean has a lot more overall curve compared to its flat water sibling.

New for 2015 are the 4-plug bungee cords for attaching necessities for a comfortable cruise and the lightweight RTM (Resin Transfer Molded) US-box fins.
They also come with a EVA covered standing area, a leash plug, an air valve, a mastfoot insert to attach a windsurfing rig and FCS nose plug for GoPro camera.
