Must apologise pics to come:

Took delivery of my new 10'0 Laguna Bay sup bout 2 wks ago and am absolutely stoked with it. The thing that impresses me most (apart from it being cheaper than the generic off the shelf imports) is the service that I got from Tully and the crew at noosa surf works.
A couple of months ago my partner and I went up to noosa and tully agreed to meet us at the rivermouth with a range of about 6 boards and we tried them all. I settled on a 10.6 (even though tully said I could go a bit smaller) that was all but finished in the factory and paid my bucks. After about a month I kinda felt that Yeah Yeah tully had been right and I rang him for a 10.0. I just simply told him I wanted 10ft and he knew how I surfed and what I wanted from the board as I had surfed with him a month or so earlier so there was no further discussion about dimensions or anything - I just left it to the experts. WOW - didn't think I would ever go as low as 10.0 but I have never had so much fun on such a forgiving board. Its a shortboard - its a mal - its a sup - man its whatever you want it to be !!! Amazing board - Amazing service - It really makes a difference to be dealing with the man whos making your fun for you. And the other big thing I have learnt out of this is that generic dimensions really mean squat - the board is for YOU - not the average person - don't ever sell yourself short and consider yourself the average supper.

LOL - Mine is pretty simple yellow with a bit of an orange tint bleed through the middle - looks like a nice clean longboard as do most of the latest sups I have seen out of the laguna factory of late. The other reason I think that some of the out of this world laguna bay colours of old have toned is that I would imagine all those resin tints and stuff cost big bucks and time and hell, most of us are gunna cover half the board in rubber hey. Have actually seen a couple of Lagunas on the goldy of late and they are plain white and look really nice - I know it's nice to personalise it a bit but at the end of the day its what it does and not how it looks hey.

Think they are around $1800 gripped/carry handle/colour/

Be worth giving Tully a call at Noosa Surf Works and see what they can do. Mate they are worth every single cent. And no b/s we have ordered an 11 fter so my wife can take the dog paddling and it'll be a great allrounder for teaching friends and family to sup as well.

Good to see everyone loving the Laguna's. They definitely make some sick boards

Looks like a winner to me ...exactly what I have been after for a while now.Hard to find a 10' pop out for some reason.What is the turnaround time?

As far as time goes, I'm pretty sure it is about a month but don't quote me on that. Give Tully a call and he'll tell you everything you need to know.

GZZZZZZZZZZ (sound of sale of the century buzzer) LOGMAN..............yes(answer)..........ding.......... 5 points , lets play the fame game

Maybe i'm wrong ,and I don't know the range of Laguna bay boards on offer, but they don't seem to be going down the blown up shortboard track but going for the hi-po longboard style .

Took delivery of my laguna bay 8"6 two weeks ago, it is simply too good, I have ridden it in 2ft slop, 3ft off shore, and last week rode 4-5 ft queenslciff. The board paddles in well, And rides like a short board. Good to hear another positive story about LB, good service is hard to find!
