It is amazing how quickly this sport is evolving.
If you looked at boards, particularly race boards, a year ago with ones today you would think it is a different sport.

The logo on his t-shirt looks like Kind of consistent with the Whopper and Junior names and ...
The Starboard range look great but as far as I know only RPS are selling Starboard and they only have a very limited range. Anybody know of somewhere in Melbourne we can see/try the other boards in the range?
very interesting that jnr whopper at 9' 33'' Should get a few more into the sub 10' range at that width!!! Anyone in Oz tried this board yet?
Unfortunately RPS is the only Auswind/Starboard outlet in melb,and they really are not into the DEMO thing.Limited range, and it would seem limited interest,equal limited sales, nobody wins
Great video DJU
Isn't it great how we can get info thru Youtube from the other side of the world!

Good news for Kiwis with Jeremy from Supsnz travelling around giving demos of Starboard boards and offering some good board/bag/paddle deals. Got myself a whopper sport tech. As they say not a fast paddler but a loose frisky little beast on a wave. Yet to give it the "really big wave" test
Looking at the photo Wardog from Surfingsports posted, the small board is actually 7'11 x 29.5" - nice finish and that width sounds a bit more reasonable!
