World Champion & European Champion: Starboard's Formula boards simply dominated the past season and the current season by taking the top places in all major events, including all top eleven places at the Worlds last year, then the Midwinters and the European Championships this year. With these top eleven places at the Formula Worlds 2006 followed by the European Title, Starboard's Formula 160 became the most successful racing board in Windsurfing history.
Three key points make Starboard's lead unassailable: R&D, R&D and R&D. Simply put, Starboard invests more in racing shape development than any other team: Tiesda You, Jim Drake, Remi Vila, Svein Rasmussen, Per Andersson, Antoine Albeau, Kevin Pritchard and Julien Quentel plus the ability to make more protoypes faster creates a unique and unequalled development synergy.
For 2008, this R&D advantage becomes more critical than ever: ISAF have frozen Formula designs for 2 years to boost the stability of the class and promote it as a strong Olympic contender in 2012.

We have pushed the on water testing of the new Warp to the max and integrated all the development necessary to make this new weapon a truly unique board.
At 158 liters the board has been slimmed down quite a bit compared to its predecessor, but performance on the plane has increased considerably. It pop out of the water in the slightest of breeze, and tracks really well upwind due to the very sharp rails all the way to the last quarter where it concludes with a chamfer for control on down wind legs.

The new FX V Formula board takes it to the maximum with almost every windrange. The outstanding performance and dominance of our racing machine lies in the extremely wide tail. The FX V has a tail width of an impressive 83 cm measured 30 cm from the tail. This makes it unbeatable especially going upwind. The adjustable cut outs provide the exact trim needed for perfect control in all wind strengths.
