The true twin-tip and medium flex of the Darkstar offers immense POP, torsional responsiveness, and freestyle mastery for the rider looking for the premium freestyle shred.
Once again winning numerous board tests in 2008, the Darkstar is back and a freestyle power to be reckoned with. Hyper Progressive Sidecut and centered stance offer precise response and easy maneuverability while the Hybritaper Tip and Tail reduce swing weight and has the stability to power through any landing.

Sure riders of any level will get on with the darkstar, medium flex, progressive sidecut… all the makings of a fairly easy board to ride.

What are you looking for in your board?
The Starimaster isn’t too dissimilar to the cambered DH or the 2010 Darkstar so what was it that you didn’t like about the Stairmaster?

the darkstar is medium flex so if you are looking for a softer board you might want to look into a forum manual or a k2 www rocker will also give you the more playful feel; your looking for.
