Hi BennoMtB
We have two inflatables a C4 waterman 10'6" and a Uli 12'6"
We do mainly flat water crusing and small wave surfing and some wake surfing.
The Uli is far more usefull way better glide catches small waves easily and just feels better to use. We are waiting for the new boards to come out as we want another Uli to stop the fights as to who gets the Uli.
We dont have a Uli paddle but a waterman three piece paddle which we only use if transport space is at a premium a one piece carbon paddle is far better to use
Hope this helps

Thanks Oldsup! Will you get another 12'6" ULI or a different model?

Anybody got any detail on the "wiki" rail? When I go looking for it on uliboards.com I keep getting flicked back to the OZ Uli site that doesn't have any detail/pics of it (presumably because I have an OZ IP address).

Hi Guys

Our apologies as we need to be more active on seabreeze. We do monitor it from time to time.

The 'wiki' rail has only recently been released in the U.S. and we won't see it on Oz until early next year. We haven't seen one in the flesh ourselves but are awaiting a couple of demo's which should arrive around Sept/Oct. By all reports including from well renowned surfers the 'wiki' rail makes the board perform as well as any hardboard. The improvement in glide and stability is unparalleled. Essentially, it reduces drag, turbulence and suction inherent in other inflatables.

We've only recently built the Oz website meaning anyone from Oz and Asia Pacific automatically gets re-directed to our site.

We currently have only one 12'6" left in stock as well as one 14". They are both single skins - the new versions will only be offered in double skins. We have a lot of 11' Steamrollers in stock. Furthermore we currently have a 20% discount offer which translates to $300 plus saving on all boards. Also 10% on accessories.

For the record the U.S. are offering the "wiki" as an option whereas we are intending to make it standard on all boards offered in Aus (current stock aside) without increasing current RRP.

For those of you in Vic we are based in Vic and have a factory in Tullamarine and are often around Port Phillip Bay. Stay tuned as we are also on the cusp of starting an all inflatable SUP school.

Thanks for expressing interest in our product and for your kind posts.

Cheers
Fab
