ROBERTS SURFBOARDS : STARCHIP

SURFBOARDS > STAR CHIP

STAR CHIP

DESCRIPTION

Fast like a rocket, the Star Chip is a high performance all around betweener for your everyday waves up to rippable surf a couple feet overhead. A moderate rocker is used for catching waves with ease while still allowing it to be free and responsive in the pocket. It has a single to double concave bottom with four channels running out the tail. Working with the bottom contours, the channels add even more lift and water flow to create the Star Chip’s mach speeds. The Star Chip’s unique multi-angular swallow tail helps exhaust water off the channels and provides pivot points for release and precise turning. The Star Chip is designed to be ridden as a thruster or as a Twonzer. Use your favorite thruster fins for high speed performance. To take it to the next level and beyond, use a set of Roberts Twonzer fins for another dimension of acceleration and handling.
