Construction - Carbon Sandwich
Each Kode underside is laminated in full T700 unidirectional flat-woven carbon for optimized flex, while the deck is 60% carbon, alternating between unidirectional and bi-axial carbon. Advanced composite sandwich layers utilise only high grade PVC foam, enhancing performance, strength and durability. The result is the lightest construction delivering a structurally strong board offering a precise, controlled and responsive ride. Comfortable, direct and efficient.

Key Features:

• Versatility, built in - All Kodes come equipped with Powerbox centre and lightweight Starbox side thruster fin boxes except the 85 liters with a US box due to the slim tail. Faster assembly, more accurate fin setup and tuning…the Starbox is compatible with US
  
• Side fin boxes moved 3.5cm forward - The new Kode revised the side finbox position 3.5 cm further forward in order to make it more agile and aggressive when it comes to wave use
  
• Have it all your way - Thruster for reactive turns and wave action. Single fin for early planing and fun, fast freeride. All Carbon Sandwich Kode are supplied with both thruster and single fin set options. Wood Sandwich Kode 85, 95 & 105 supplied with thruster fins. Larger Wood Sandwich Kode 115, 125, 135 and 145 are supplied with single fin.
  
• Play harder. For longer - Premium Jim Drake footstraps manufactured from certified natural Yulex-foam, the smoothest fabric for a comfortable ride. Under your feet are 10mm thick footpads with diamond grooving pattern to provide positive grip and maximum comfort over extended sessions while being resistant to wear-and-tear.
  
• Smart colour set up:
  • Wave: adjust your mast base and footstraps around the white marks
    
  • Freeride: adjust your mast base and footstraps around the dark red marks
    

Faster, smoother, snappier Kodes
85, 95 and 105 accelerate quicker with increased area behind the fin. This lift is balanced with more nose area, creating a super smooth ride in choppy waters. Manoeuvrability is enhanced by the added curve around the front footstraps. The new Kode hip outline makes bottom turns and jibes notably more engaging and flowing.

115, 125, 135 & 145: the best large wave boards Starboard have ever made.

The 115, 125, 135 & 145 Kode feature larger centre line volumes with thin, responsive rails, which allow you to enjoy tricky conditions. Ride more waves with ease. Or switch out the wave riding thrusters for the single fin and enjoy a high speed freeride blast.

If you enjoy a larger size Freeride board, the Kode 145 promises you a new level of satisfaction. Tuned with a single fin, you feel an incredibly “free” board underfoot. The KODE will see you smiling through your first autopilot gybe, thanks to the curved outline and easy, confidence inspiring rounded rails.

The shorter length increases your sense of agility, and with responsive thruster setup, you’ll gybe like never before and chasing small waves to ride. Jump on board with 6 to 8.5 meter sails and ask yourself how a board can make such a difference in sensation.
