Has anyone got any feedback on the Gulliver paddle boards?
I would like to hear if you have good and bad comments.
I am looking at their "All Star" and "Cruiser" models.
These boards are cheap at the moment on ebay but best to check for any feedback before $ get sent.
I am 100kg's , competent surfer looking to get into paddle boarding.
Cheers.
nah mate!!!!! better off buying a good known brand 2nd hand board 
imo 
search on bro and good luck 
and watch out this sup thing turns you into a frothing grommet all over again 
ha ha ha ha ha !!!!!!
i've got one of the "sand reef" boards that look like they come out of the same factory just different name on the board 9'8" swallow tail bamboo bottom & top, great looking board, surfs really well and built very well, the only thing you may find is that they are a little heavier than other boards, if i was looking for another board i would buy one at that price.
"2010 Gulliver paddle boards Quality or not." .. Probably 'or not'
But if it gets you on the water go for it..

hey mate im no expert but if your looking for a cheap board i would try one of the atx sups, i've heard some good things about them, and the price isn't bad either
gulliver, sup atx, sand reef etc they are all a price point board. IE built to fit in under a price range and still make money ;)
Personly I think the "shape" isnt there nore the quality of construction. With the price that some shops are doing on known brands last years models including paddles I wouldnt by "cheap chinese"

The naish fin boxes snap out before the fin breaks, quality yellow colour, with great stickers. Starboards dont walk to the nose they dent. They are all cheap with more expensive graffics . Maybe a better shape , but still made by Kan Tong who also works part time in the noodle factory on the weekends , in whatever asian country . Seems to me the more paint , the more they are hiding, the truth is in repairing them!
I remember there was a heap of negative banter when Chinese epoxy boards first hit the shelves. That negative talk was mainly fueled by traditional shapers and the sponsored surfers riding their polyester boards who had a inherit need to spread such crap. Truth is anyone who knows anything about boards knows that computer shaping machines can copy any board. All the leading companies and new upstarts copy each other. And there is always many different shapes under each label for different conditions and different level riders.
When are sellers going to stop using this site to promote themselves and dish other products
I don't even know this product. Its obviously new to the market. putting **** on it or comparing it to leading brands doesn't help a kook to make a decision. I know one thing. these same debates arnt happening in short-board circles. If you want advise take it from a person who has bought the product and used it not from these idiots guessing or pushing their own agendas.
some of us have seen these boards in the flesh and .....wait....even riden them.....
shocked 
As Rollo, I have also had some local custom boards. I have had the few repairs done professionaly by a guy with a vg reputaion. They just dont stand up to the knocks like a tuflite etc...
it really depends on the glass job and the guy doing the work i guess it helps if you no what your doing and are a proper tradsman
fgi in sydney its more expensive than everyone else but better quality around 9 bucks a meter compared to say shapers which i can get for around 6 but it really depends what the guy want some i have 3 or 4 layers on the deck but with my own i have 2 layers only as i like em super light yet they are still bullet proof no dents on deck or anything after 12months solid surfing
it's worth mentioning there is a big difference between a board made in some no name factory in China vs boards out of Cobra in Thailand. Cobra have been doing OEM epoxy watercraft for many years with a great record of success. Windsurfers which endure much higher forces than any SUP have been coming out of here for many years.
true true. but are they really twice as strong like the price tag suggests. Id had a few surftechs yep they are strong but not worth 2-$300 more no way. Keep in mind Surftech-Cobra was once a no name factory and they also copped their fair share of criticism, actually its still copping a bit from high performance shapers. Isn't their construction vacuum glassed sandwich coolite construction. that construction has been around since the 80s guys....ask the clubbie shapers. Surftech is all about duplication. Mass production...Its simple business its a Macdonalds guys.
Didn't I already say that! Thanks for your amazing insight champ
. i reckon he gets the drift
