Sustainability

Last year you remember that Starboard joined SustainableSurf’s Ecoboard project, well now to help them continue their development of eco-friendly boards Florian Jung (Starboard / Gun Sails / Maui Ultra Fins) has joined the team with the goal of producing boards with minimal impact on natural resources, while offering maximum performance on the water.

– Svein Rasmussen: “We are stoked to see Florian Jung joining the “Tiki tribe”. We are busy designing, building and testing more environmental friendly products. Florian is already engaged in environmental work and we see him as a strong partner in all aspects. Looking forward to build boards in the future with less than 100 kg/CO2 carbon footprint and planting lots of mangroves to make up for the remaining parts.”

– Florian Jung (Starboard / Gun Sails / Maui Ultra Fins): “I am really happy to be part of the Starboard team and help to produce boards out of renewable, recycled or biodegradable materials that will set new standards in terms of performance and innovative board design. It feels great to make a step in the right direction by protecting the planet and the ocean that are the foundation for our sport. Finally we have a choice to ride on sustainable products that will have positive effects even beyond the windsurf world.”
