The exciting 2025 KODE. The future wave of bump & jump boards. True wave performance with freeride speed. Impossible. Until today. Challenge the KODE. Experience next level performance.
Efficient flat mid-rocker into a very smooth curve under the standing area acts like an accelerator pedal and lets you ride into cruise control. Thin rails provide bite. Without grab. Double concave under the nose area boosts planing, smoothing your ride in aggressive conditions. Vee concave mid section feeds a pronounced tail vee, empowering the KODE with more wave board turning ability than a crossover board. The 2025 KODE sensation. Different from any other KODE range ever developed. Combines more wave riding and blasting ability than any predecessors.
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. We’ll 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.
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.
All 2025 KODE 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… Our Starbox is compatible with US
Premium Jim Drake footstraps manufactured from certified natural Yulex-foam, the smoothest fabric for a comfortable ride. Under your feet,10mm thick footpads with diamond grooving pattern provide positive grip, maximising comfort over extended sessions while being resistant to wear-and-tear.
Each KODE underside is laminated with 2 layers of Glass with different angles for optimized flex, while the deck is 60% UD 80g carbon to have a responsive deck.
Developed by Jean Louis Colmas in 1984, Wood Technology became Starboard’s trademark construction in 1995- and made Starboard the world’s number one Windsurfing brand 7 years later. Wood Technology remains a proven favourite for riders preferring more comfort and control, combined with that unique crisp “wood” feel. Full Wood Sandwich lamination of 0.6mm Australian Pinewood over PVC foam ensures impact resistance and comfort with optimum strength to weight ratio. Durability is further enhanced with UV protection film, complimenting the natural wood grain with a blue shine effect. A classy re-edition of a classic Starboard Original.

KODE 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.
