The popular TESTival goes into the next round in 2025. On Saturday 21 June 2025, Key2Fun and Starboard are inviting all water sports enthusiasts to the Listersee in Drolshagen. Interested parties will have the opportunity to extensively test current models from the Starboard range - from inflatable SUPs to hardboards. Experienced paddlers can also try out the latest Wing & Foil material. The venue can be reached by navigation at the address "Kalberschnacke 6 in 57489 Drolshagen". This is where Maik Wieloch runs his Key2Fun sup centre.

Exclusive discount campaign for participants

As a special highlight, all participants will benefit from an exclusive discount promotion. Starboard is offering a 10% discount on pre-orders as part of the TESTival. This pre-order promotion applies to the entire Starboard range, which can be viewed in the manufacturer's brand world. Interested parties should be quick, however, as the discounted prices are only valid for a limited period and while stocks last.
