Try Hayden shapes as well. Think his psychedelic germ model has a hull. Can get em from star in perth.
I learnt something today
www.surfscience.com/topics/surfboard-anatomy/bottom-contour/displacement-hulls
I don't want to be a know it all tosser, but I think the term 'displacement hull' is a **** name. It seems in surfboards they call a vee bottom displacement hull. But plenty of ski boats and run abouts etc are vee bottom and they are planing hull. I think any short surfboard in the world that you can stand on while it is not moving is actually a planing hull. I mean that, the forward movement creates lift.
Actually, maybe the term 'displacement hull' isn't too inaccurate. I just read that website and it says if the surfboard goes too fast it would submarine. That's right I guess. When I think displacement hull I think of tankers at freo. And they have a speed limit they physically can not go faster than. Maybe I'm wrong.
Yeah that's what I meant leg rooter. 
Those racing SUP board would be displacement hulls. But then again, I don't want to sound like a know it all. My opinion is based on nothing. No uni degree. No papers or other things. Just a bloke.
yep the type of board im looking for are the ones vouch surfboards shapes (over east)or the v bowl ryan lovelace shape
Yeah that's what I meant too. I thought displacement hulls had their length in feet, then square rooted, then times by some number like 1.6 or something, and that's their top speed in knots. That's why it sounded to me that a surfboard couldn't be one. Good to hear a bloke who knows what he's talking about chime in, thought I was going out on a limb claiming it didn't sound right.
Who cares though, the surfing looks great.
I always thought displacement hulls in surfboards meant bowls not concaves...where a bowl in the nose will form a high rail...thus the high/low railer...producing a rail that is soft almost spongy to ride...where the concave will plane early...and produce a more defined edge to turn on and a board that will feel more precise through its turn...they both plane though so I guess the name does not really suit....I based my free range egg design on this theory and they are a very fast little board....I have run the concave into the bowl which has produced a very interesting board to ride...its great taking old stuff and blending it with modern ideas....I think we will see a lot more of this as surf design starts to go a little like fashion....the basic short board has gone about as far as it can go...(and to be honest bores the crap out of me.)
..so designs will come into, and go out of fashion
This one is from rake, on it's way to three stories surf shop in WA, if that's what your after might be worth a look, nice looking board..
Nice boards RG..
^^^^
Can anyone explain why quads seem to go so much faster than a standard thruster. With a extra fin common sense would have me thinking the extra fin would create more drag and slow the board down. But I know that's not the case as I have a quad in my quiver. In my opinion the quad is the board of choice for super hollow fast beach breaks.
