The Overdrive HDT is NSP’s latest addition to the longboard range, by Tully St.John of Laguna Bay longboards.
Bottom: Single concave to round V
Ideal waves: 1-6ft
Level: Intermediate to advanced
Overdrive HDT Design:
The extra width in the nose, entry concave spiralling into a V through the rounded pin tail and performance rocker, complimented by low boxy rails creates a board that flows, releases and is easy to turn.
The NSP Overdrive HDT is your performance longboard that works in a wide range of conditions, for a wide range of skill levels and styles.
Shapewise, this is the ultimate allrounder, designed as a competitive longboard with a focus on usability and performance. A perfect choice from a first longboard to a first place at a comp. Riders looking for a poly version can have a look at the PU version or look into the CSE version, which is the high-performance version in the Overdrive line-up.
About Tully
Tully’s shapes have been honed on the long-running walls of Noosa’s Surf Reserve and its many surrounding beach breaks – the ride and flow of this longboard shape is unmistakable Tully:
“Try to think of a two-board longboard quiver, with the Sleep Walker being the other part for smaller, longer walled waves while the Overdrive also excels in beach breaks and more powerful conditions”

Overdrive HDT construction diagram
NSP’s High Definition Technology (HDT) construction redefines the boundaries of surfboard manufacturing. It is now possible to have a board that is incredibly tough, lightweight and high-performance at an affordable price.
Created specifically for the Shapers Union range, HDT pairs high-performance designs with precision moulding technology, ensuring accurate reproduction and dynamic flex characteristics. HDT uses a model-specific, fully fused and water-resistant SecureCell EPS Core, military-grade fibreglass and foaming epoxy resin. Moulded in NSP’s high-tech vacuum moulds, this reduces waste and environmental impact of a traditionally produced surfboard by 30%.
HDT also creates an exceptionally durable shell that offers unmatched strength and lightweight performance, with 50% higher breakage strength at a lower weight than similar boards built in PU.
Implemented at the request of some of the world’s best board builders in the Shapers Union, NSP HDT construction provides consistent performance and durability session after session, elevating the surfing experience with premium materials and innovative technology.
