Just picked up my new 2015 8ft x 28" Starboard Pro and am pretty stoked on how it presents so far.

Initial Observations

Love the new brighter graphics, the orange is a nice contrast down at the business end of the board!

New Fin System - The FCS 2 Fin box system has really stepped up this year, the fins fit much flusher and feel very sturdy when anchored home, apparently the take another type of FCS Fin system as well that is a load and snap fixing. (where you don’t need to use the grub screws at all)

New ergonomic carry handle, which fits into the fingers snugly

Weight seems about the same as last year, pretty light

I note the literage has slightly increased on the 2015 from 96 l the previous year to 105 l this year, they say this does not alter the performance and was needed with the modifications that where made to the shape.

I will post a review after our boat trip tomorrow.
