Be great to get a review of this board. I see it is fairly narrow at 25". Could be something to consider in the future!
Nice flat rocker line for the nosey stuff......probably too narrow for the larger size enthusiasts.......didn't notice the volume?
'One' of the best longboard style SUP riders!
Can't wait for the action vids Jonesy.
Yes 'one" of the best..... because Tully knows you are the best
PS yes vids to come

It's 110-110lts.... I'm 84kgs and it was spot on. Didn't find it to narrow but 26" could be something for the bigger paddler..

how thick is it? edit: just saw it is 3 3/8....looked thicker in the vid?
and what fin is that?
It actually turned out really good weight ,8.8 kg in fact.

Before it sounds like I think I know too much, it might be time to give shaping a go? I have a shed full of old mals, loggers and a comp longboard. All are superb shapes that I know work. Take the best of the best and see what I can come up with?
With a bit of assistance from a local shaper and glasser, it would at least be rideable. Even have a cool decal ready to go. Gotta start somewhere?
Another project for the list! Might as well start the research phase!

thats pretty bloody good, especially for PU (thumbs up)
can you tell me the fin you have on it in the vid?
Recon Mission No 1: already found some blanks and a shaping machine.
Hopefully haven't bitten off more than I can chew!!!
So, I saw this thread last year and thought, "Yep, that's what I'm doing next".
Tully has shaped some great boards for friends and family, so I was confident in getting a quality product.
Just getting in to a bit of nose riding and struggling a bit on narrow low volume boards, I thought it was time to fun it up in time for winter......
My bro bought it up on Saturday, and even though the conditions were atrocious I took it out anyway. Nil by waves but the stability and glide were spot on.
Sunday morning was a bit better with no wind, but a huge full tide and some steep peaky shore breaks. Not really ideal long board territory but managed the steep drops surprisingly well. The big single controlled the rate of descent and the quite sharp rails back on the tail steered me out of the sh1t with ease.
I will report back after big bad debbie buggers off, and the ocean doesn't look quite as angry. Really looking forward to this beauty on a clean wave....

bugger me...!!! that's brilliant mate, awesome looking board.
That is one of the nicest looking boards I've seen,
erm carry on the shoulder job?
On the noggin or......
Beauty... classic "stringer" pins and color...nicely done!
I'm liking that fin as well.
Cheers STC. Tully deserves all the cred. Glad I went with the jade green though, looks mint. That fin is a perfect choice. Stoked.

How do we get a go Tully?
Your crystal ball is on point. Read the minds of so many people out in SUPland.

Have had half a dozen sessions on this sweet beast, so time to report back. This morning was the first time since I've had her, that it was perfect conditions for me on this board.
I finally got all the way to the nose and couldn't stop doing it for about 3 hours. Fantastic fun.
I had trouble with the wax at first, even though i did a proper tropical base coat and warm top coat, if I went even slightly up on one rail I would slide off. With the wax. Only in the standing area though, where my feet were warming it up in 2 spots.
I was toying with the idea of hexa traction, but kept talking myself out of it. Wanted to keep this board pure. Since the water temp has dropped off it's been heaps better. I love the feel of it. Really connected with the wave.
As with all my boards I have beaten the crap out of the rails and not a mark. I put one slight knee compression dent in the deck falling on it heavily, but where I put my feet is still flat as. Finding it better standing slightly rear of centre, to get the quite flat nose up off the water, and turn easier on to the wave.
Surfing from the tail after walking back off the nose is surprising. The sharp rails near the tail make it quite easy to turn for a bigger board, and I'm finding plenty of time to then get back to centre to paddle out again.
Punches through waves nicely with a gentle shove, and I love that typical big glass board shudder. Feels alive.
And no, I don't miss the handle. Quite nice not to have to walk over it.
I hope this board lasts me years.
