The Gulliver boards look pretty good. Anyone know the prices?
Yup, seems like a nice coherent design... except for the sizing!
Why increasing so much the length with volume? this means that for my weight I would be forced to ride a 8'1"... much too long for this design to work, you lose all the benefits of the parallel rails, and if as they say, this design allows you to have your rear foot on the kickpad at all times, this means that you have a huge swing weight far away up front slowing you down...
$2500RRP... Comes with cover, carbon fins and grip.
Not sure who you were talking to .. $1900 without a bag. That price from ringing retailer Australianwaterman.com yesterday (07) 55203824
I contacted the distributor who gave me that price. He put me onto the local retailer, and he quoted $1900 also with bag and fins. Not a bad deal, compared to other top brands.

as a kiter (and SUSer), i've tried many surfboards and so far my favorite is the Vanguard. I normally use something like a 5'7" standard surfboard to a 6' kite-specific surfboard, but when i got on a 5'2" Vanguard, it was fast, turned on a dime, and supported my size/weight easily. I think the aesthetics of the board have some crying foul, but I don't care about that. I'd use a garbage can top if it surfed well. My Simmons-shaped SUP boards can slide when turning, but it's all a matter of foot placement. If I'm riding it correctly, it can snap a turn. If this is a fad to some, so be it. I just enjoy the options and hope we start seeing more of these Tomo-inspired SUPs here in the states.
I am with u on this one
I don't wont to sup on a surf board, give me something different. I even think thay could use the same shape for all round boards
