Phantom Race 380
The Phantom Race 380 is Starboard's uncompromised raceboard measuring 380cm by 70cm. Its design brief was simple: to become the new benchmark for the Raceboard Class. Designed, developed and tested by Remi Vila, Julien Quentel and Per Andersson, the Phantom Race 380 takes advantage of the latest Raceboard Class rules with its 70cm extra-wide width powered by an 85cm daggerboard.
Three key developments give this board its cutting edge:
- The wider width gets the board planing earlier, even with the daggerboard out, and enables the board to reach deeper downwind angles.
- The extra-long 85cm daggerboard provides more drive and power, enabling the board to rail up earlier.
- The extra-long mast track features a 75cm adjustment range that extends further forward, allowing the rider to maximize the waterline, maximize the power of larger rigs and close the gap between the sail and the deck more effectively.
The Phantom Race 380 comes with eight Ultralight footstraps with complete reaching and upwind insert positions. The mast track pedal can be activated with the daggerboard head.
Phantom Race 320
The new Phantom Race 320 is the board that links progressive lightwind windsurfing to lightwind racing performance. Measuring 320cm by 71cm and powered by a 70cm daggerboard, the Phantom Race 320 is also a board designed to fit inside the Raceboard Class Hybrid category.
This makes it the ideal board for all-wind weekend windsurfing: whether freeriding, racing in planing or non-planing conditions, the Phantom Race 320 offers you a fast gliding sensation from just 2 or 3 knots of wind.
In stronger winds, the Phantom Race 320 planes up to give a fast, free ride with the feel of a much smaller board. With its 70cm daggerboard down, the board drives upwind and reveals its power and racing potential.
It's the perfect board for windsurfers looking for a board that will be fast and fun in any wind, any time.
Summary:
- High-performance daggerboard boards
- Adjustable mast track
- Powerful 70cm daggerboard on the Phantom Race 320
- 85cm daggerboard on the Phantom Race 380
The most suitable sail types are powerful lightwind sails
Compared to the Serenity, the Phantom Race 380 is a more all-round racing machine with its daggerboard and adjustable mast track. The Phantom Race 380 can therefore maximize performance upwind, downwind and adapt to varying wind conditions, but on the other hand it will require a more advanced technique from the rider. The Serenity is a simple board that requires no adjustment, designed only for non-planing conditions.
