Starboard Lima Carbon Paddle 2pc 29mm Medium [2024]
The Starboard Lime is the favourite for SUP Touring, Racing and Cruising with efficient power transfer for the best speed both recreationally and in top-level competition.
**New for 2024** - all Lima carbon paddles now feature the stiffening ribs on the blade as the prepreg models have had for last two years, allowing a thinner blade profile for the most efficient paddle stroke.
The Lima's direct catch and ability to redirect automatically is what makes Starboard's world champion race team choose the Lima. Their champions boast that the Lima propels the board faster through the water, setting the new standard in high-performance paddling.
New Lima CNC Core Twin Ribs Shape
- Reduce 15% of core volume
- The ribs create blade strength and ability to cut through the water faster
- NEW 2024 Carbon and Tiki Tech blades are now also featured twin ribs shape
The Concave
- The concave on the power face is guiding the water throughout the blade controlling the wobbling and increasing the water flow speed.
- The edge defining the concave starts round-shaped at the tip of the blade to separate the water smoothly. It then becomes sharper to dictate the water its path and stabilize the blade.
- All your power is transferred in a straight forward motion as you don’t need to worry about paddle alignment in the water anymore.
10° Blade Angle
- The Lima features a 10° angle at the blade neck, for an efficient power phase catch. Combine this with a unique narrow and flat profile allowing you to pull the blade very close to the rail of the board, giving it a really nice line.
Super Handle
- The new Super Handle changes the way we paddle
- The flat top and wide grip create new powerful leverage of the whole paddle and the blade
- One can steer the paddle on slight angles and remain with full power
- Especially good for side winds and keeping the board on the course you may set.
The Trash Picker - Comes with every paddle
Use the trash picker as a helpful tool to pick up plastic and other trash while paddling. It’s made from recycled plastic and comes with every paddle. Store the trash in a bag or pocket it until you reach the shore.
