What Starboard has to say:

All-round - Freeride Wing

Lightweight, playful and super versatile, the all-new Starboard Viva Wing is the ultimate quiver killer built for anywhere, anyway and anyone. From waves to lakes, freestyle to freefly, and even boosting big air - the Viva will DO IT ALL.

Features:

• BALANCED MEDIUM ASPECT - The VIVA’s straight central leading edge and fuller wingtips deliver power, acceleration and lift, while the rounder outline and straighter trailing edge ensure smooth glide, agility, and a wide wind range — perfect for waves, jumps, downwind, and all-around freeride.
• GRADIENT LOAD CANOPY - The canopy sports lightweight Aeroflex 55 up front, Code-Tec 85 in the midsection, and 1x row of durable Ultra-X at the trailing edge — lighter cloth where loads are low, tougher fabric where stress is high — for efficient power transfer, less distortion, and smooth, forward-driving feel.
• LIGHT & AGILE - A super slim strut and light, narrow Ultra-X wingtips, combined with lighter, stiffer canopy materials, reduce swing weight and drag, making the VIVA feel exceptionally light, responsive, and playful in hand.
• MEDIUM DIHEDRAL - A medium 12.5° dihedral strikes the ideal balance between the maneuverability of a steeper dihedral and the efficient power delivery and stability of a flatter dihedral, providing smooth control, stability, and all-round performance, particularly excelling when flagged out.
• UPWARD-SWEPT WINGTIPS - Upward-swept wingtips help to add stability, neutrality, glide and make the wing very forgiving whether you're flagged out or fully powered.
• DEEP PROFILE, MEDIUM CHORD - The deeper profile delivers strong low-end power, while the medium chord balances agility and stability — short enough for a direct, responsive feel, yet long enough for glide and control — making the wing feel balanced and lively across all wind conditions.
• FLUTTER-FREE FLIGHT - Four stiff fibreglass battens are strategically positioned on the trailing edge, which paired with the perfectly tensioned rear Ultra-X section of the canopy make for an incredibly silent and flutter-free ride regardless of the wind strength.
• MINIMAL WINDOWS - Minimal PU windows have been carefully placed in the middle Code-Tec 85 section of the canopy, with centre windows designed to provide a downwind view and front windows for a forward view, to help riders avoid collisions without sacrificing on the performance of the canopy.
• COOL GREY LEADING EDGE - A cool grey leading edge keeps PSI stable in the sun, reflecting heat to prevent overinflation and extend the wing’s lifespan. *A black leading edge goes from 10-13 PSI in the sun, while cool grey only goes from 10-10.5 PSI.
• ERGO FLAG HANDLE - An ergonomically low-mounted flag-out handle with a wide, soft touch grip and stiff webbing base provides effortless, direct and comfortable freefly control.
• DUAL PUSH-TURN VALVES - User-friendly max flow push-turn valves offer easy inflation and deflation, while seperated strut and leading edge inflation points let you fine-tune pressures separately for maximum performance and customisation in changing conditions and disciplines.
