post Hull pics 

Please post yer Hull pics - where one can compare different planshapes, bottoms, fins -- kindly note dimensions, and geo region, and construction type ( epoxy, pu/pe, etc). Fins too.

yep i know we've had a few hull threads of late -- but would like to have a thread with mostly pics of different manufacturers' styles of hulls.

would be greatly appreciated.

Slds,

Re: [9N78W] post Hull pics 

I'm throwing this one in although most folks have seen this Liddle before. 7'2" 17" X 23" (up 7" from middle)X 15" X 3". I use a 9" Liddle flex around 12.5 inches up from the tail (measured from the back of the fin at the box). I ride in San Diego and the board needs a wave with little base to really turn on. I've only got it to 5th gear once or twice.

Unfortunately, you can't glean much info about a hull from a photo. You need to see one in person and run your hands over them, drag a straight edge along the bottom, etc. The differences between a Liddle and say a Paul Gross are really too subtle to see.

Re: [LeeV] post Hull pics 

yea i've heard that - about having to see and feel - but i have seen some difference in planshape, some fin placement and size i think. i wish i could see one in person - but i don't think there's one within 1000 mi of me. I surf mostly point tho.

Still appreciate the pics. that's what i'm looking for. Thanks LeeV.

good to see all in one place

I like Lee's pic

I gonna sidewipe my brother Sharkcountry by posting his pride and joys. "in search of the perfect eight-oh" you might debate whether they actually classify as "hulls" but he's starting to think he's a the second coming of Mr. Liddle.
Hull on the mind I guess.

Personally I don't like the designs but to each his own I guess.

Here's a few Liddles, dimensions are nose @ 12"; wide point (+ is towards nose from center); tail @ 12" and thickness.

#1959 7'5" 17"x22"(+1)x14"; 3" thick
#2955 7'6" 17.5"x22.75"(+3)x14.5; 3"
#4079 7'0" 17x21.5(+2)x15; 3 1/8"
I surf all of these at 2nd Point Malibu, and other Point Breaks between SB and Baja.
Hope this helps.

OK here I'll try to post again.
