So It's finally time for me to start this build thread to share with you guys my 2015 competition set up.
I will add photos and updates as I go, the hull is meant to turn up monday.
First off thankyou to my sponsors over the last few months I have gained new support and people who have been with me since day one have stepped up too.
My sponsors for this season are:

So the Set up is as follows:
Overall Energy Flatwater Fibreglass hull, first one made in the world.
TPE 1105cc

MSD ignition
155mm Magnum Pump
Titan Lightweight pole (which will be seriously shortened)
I made an ally pole bracket myself as shown in the photos.

That's all for now, subscribe for updates, this is a unique build and it's gonna sick.

I was curious how the feet stay in when attempting flips. Found some info on Overall's website: http://overallbyfredo.com/ovhull/freeride-fiberglass.html

Love seeing new things

It's the first one so when it's built I will be sharing lots of footage, its an adjustable foothold set up, adjustable in size and positition, I received the hull last night so I had to do the classic over the head shot! It's a fibreglass resin infused vac bag hull coming in at 70 pounds

 

[blehjosh]

Small shot of the footholds I will show more once it's turfed

 

[blehjosh]

Any tips on installing the pump shoe? Will mock it up tomorrow with the pump

 

[Jet_jase]

Can't wait to see this boy in action this year. Good luck josh!

 

[blehjosh]

Cant wait to c your build, get a cold fusion pump alignment tool make it so easy

 

[blehjosh]

haha I wish i Had room in my budget for an alignment tool
summer is starting to show its face here so today I got the hull out on the patio to mock up the pump and the shoe and it all looks perfect all of the inserts and fixings on this hull are very high quality

 

[Jet_jase]

LOOK at the fooooooking size of that pump tunnel

 

[restosud]

Josh save yourself a future of problems and buy the alignment tool.

Agreed, The Overall is a sick surf hull and is super strong to.

it'll be worth the effort they're my favourite surf hull but this may change that
also it fits in my Ford mondeo without the front seat down proves how short it is haha
