Introducing the 7th generation Evos. The evolutionary compact wave boards in Starboard’s line-up. Since their introduction in 2003, the Evos have become the most popular waveboards in the world by a mile, and they remain the only production boards in the world to have won a PWA World Title. Many have followed, yet the Evos continue to set the benchmark in their ability to maximize wave riding performance in the widest variety of wind and wave conditions. Suitable for all riders from pros to progressing wave sailors, the Evos make the most of every ride with their ability to maintain speed on the wave face, to flow through tight turns and to protect big aerials off the lip.
The new WoodCarbon construction.
The new Evos are available in Dur-X Wood and WoodCarbon. The Dur-X Wood version continues with the same technology as 2008, a construction that has been refined since 2000 to provide the industry’s leading warranty figures and the most reliable lightweight boards to date. Double sandwich core, oversized reinforcement and a full 0.6mm wood skin for maximum rigidity, strength and dynamic shape integrity.
The WoodCarbon Evos are built using an ultralight, flat weave carbon skin with a 0.6mm wood layer that runs along the spine of the deck. Through optimal mechanical efficiency, the flat-weave carbon offers more tensile strength and stiffness than traditional woven carbon fibres at a lower specific weight, while the wood spine on the deck adds rigidity, strength and dynamic shape integrity. The bottom of the WoodCarbon Evos features a single sandwich PVC construction with double PVC stringers for additional compressive strength and resistance to bucking.
New Shapes.
The Evo 66, 70, 75 and 80 are all new shapes that build on the same formula with a refined design to take waveboarding performance another level. The Evo 66 is longer than its predecessor with a more aggressive nose shape and new rail shapes brought over from the 2008 Acid 74 to add more aggression to its style portfolio ridden compact and short or turn with more drive and a more drawn-out style. The Evo 70, 75 and 80 feature a thinned out-deck for a lower centre of gravity that brings more control and a more accurate response. The nose design has been sharpened up for more aggressive style and the new Evo 70 in particular has a refined tail outline that provides more drive. The Evo 90 and Evo 100 shapes remain unchanged, with the Evo 100 continuing to provide the market’s unique choice in the heavy weight segment.
Other features
The back footstrap on the Evos uses four screws instead of the conventional; screws for ultimate strength and a mechanically twist-free function. All Evos feature integrated heel bumpers. For all-round maximum waveriding performance and for riders of all styles and all sizes, the choice is clear and simple: the Evo is the one. It’s the formula that drives the Evo’s popularity and its number one status.
