Green on the nose...

[Shorehamsurfer]

Hi there,

I'm new to the forum but have been a fan and owner of Starboard boards in both SUP and Windsurfing for the past few years most recently with a quad 76 and a 11'2" SUP which i love.

Today following a recent week in Dahab at Neilson where I tested one i received my new Kode 112, on the whole it looks great but there seems to be some Greening to the wood on the nose, I didnt notice anything like this on the ones in dahab and have never seen any on other boards,

Do you think the board may be faulty or are some of them prone to some greening? its quite a large area by the logo and seems to be in a clear triangle shape.

Hopefully these links will work to let you see what i mean... though its quite hard to get on film...






The shop i got it from says they can be like this from time to time but i wanted a second opinion as they could be a bit biased

Any thoughts much appreciated... its a bit disapointing as the board wasnt cheap,
