Product overview

THE ACE OF DOWNWIND FOILING

THE LEGACY

The infamous ACE race board from Starboard was an industry-first design that reimagined the downwind raceboard design. First produced as a 12’6” SUP Race board and debuting at the Battle of the Paddle in 2009, the ACE (originally named “The NEW”) was available in many iterations and sizes from 12’6” – 14’0” models between 2009 – 2021. In 2025 the ACE has been reborn in a brand new size range, for the latest downwind innovation: Downwind SUP Foiling.

EFFORTLESS TAKEOFF

The nose vee and volumous nose rails result in a easy, stable and fast accelerating board, with fast and smooth foil liftoff.

SUPERIOR TRACKING

The signature pin tail and boxy rails give you easy handling, tracking and stability.

VERSATILE PERFORMANCE

The Ace is now avaiable in a longer and narrower range giving you faster acceleration and an easier downwind experience while still being user friendly for crossover foil sports.

Description

ACE FOIL vs ACE FOIL LIGHTNING

Both the Ace Foil and Ace Lightning models share the same shape but differ in size scaling. The Ace Lightning is longer and narrower, reducing drag and extending the waterline for faster glide and earlier takeoff—ideal for flat-water and downwind SUP foiling or racing. In contrast, the Ace Foil is slightly shorter and wider, offering a more agile and playful flight with greater maneuverability in both downwind conditions and waves. Its compact design helps limit catching during turns while extra width ensures stability. In short, the Ace Lightning is optimized for speed, while the Ace Foil excels in agility and control.

Key Features

ACE OUTLINE & FLAT DECK

A teardrop shape paired with a flat deck delivers even volume distribution for even float, user friendly handling and stability.

LONGER & NARROWER PROFILES

Extended length and reduced width boost acceleration onto foil with minimal drag

ROUNDER UNDER-NOSE

Rounder and fuller rails under-nose give additional stability while ensuring smoother takeoff and improved control in ocean conditions.

OPTIMIZED 14” FOIL BOX

The 14″ foil box are lightweight while offering versatile foil positioning for various foil brands.

SIGNATURE PIN TAIL

Ensures excellent tracking by drawing water together for a smooth, efficient takeoff and touchdown. The pin tail also gives the board smooth liftoff and minimal drag when paddling.

BOXY RAILS & PARALLEL MIDSECTION

Boxy rails reduce overall width without sacrificing stability, while a parallel midsection provides predictable, straight-line tracking.

REFINED ROCKER LINE

Fine-tuned for speed and rapid recovery, the rocker line gives you fast accelertion, early takeoff and smooth landings.

Constructions

NEW CARBON D2

ULTRA-LIGHTWEIGHT PERFORMANCE

Carbon D2 is the lightest performance construction in the range, reducing board weight for faster acceleration, earlier lift onto foil and efficient flight.

Unlike XTEC constructions that use expanding epoxy resin, Carbon D2 uses a traditional epoxy lamination to minimize weight while maintaining structural strength.

On the Take Off, an additional PVC standing area is integrated to improve impact resistance during freestyle jumping and wave riding.

  • Semi-Custom Traditional epoxy lamination for reduced weight
  • Additional Carbon standing reinforcements for stiffness and responsiveness
  • PVC standing area reinforcement (Take Off) for impact resistance during jumps
  • Carbon Load Frame rail band for increased stiffness and breaking strength
  • Foil box Carbon reinforcement for high-load durability
  • PVC Omega stringer to prevent buckling in front of the foil box
