The Starboard Generation 12'6 x 28 Lite Tech is a do-it-all hardboard combining touring, racing and surfing on a single platform. 249 L, 28 lb (12.7 kg), parallel outline, squared tail and thruster setup with 5.5" side fins. Rail/nose reinforcements and unidirectional stringer bands for maximum stiffness.
The Starboard Generation 12'6 x 28 Lite Tech is a hardboard designed as a 3-in-1: surf, race and touring on the same platform. Thinner than traditional touring SUPs — lighter and easier to carry. Front bungee for gear, near-parallel outline for predictable glide, fast-accelerating nose and a tapered tail for responsive turns.

How we recommend it at El Niño Mallorca
If you're torn between a touring and a race board, this is the answer. For 70-90 kg riders who want a single hardboard that does everything well — long paddles around the bay of Can Pastilla (Playa de Palma) or Alcúdia, the odd local race and small surf — the Generation 12'6 is our most balanced pick.
Tip: email us at info@elninomallorca.com or pop into our shop in Port de Can Pastilla (Playa de Palma) or Alcúdia and we will help you with size, construction and intended use.
