G6

The Harley Ingleby G6 is a high-performance longboard designed by 2x World Longboard Champion Harley Ingleby for surfers who want a board built specifically for the days when their everyday longboard is overmatched. Six channels through the bottom and a faster, drivier rocker turn it into an acceleration machine in chest-high and bigger surf.

WHO

The G6 is for the longboarder who already has a daily-driver and wants a second board built for the bigger, cleaner days.

  • The experienced longboarder who wants more drive, hold, and acceleration than a traditional log can deliver
  • The progressive longboarder who already loves to surf in the pocket and wants a board that locks in there at speed
  • The competitive or contest-minded longboarder looking for a high-performance shape tuned for quality surf
  • The longboarder who has watched their everyday board get pushed around when the swell jumps and wants something that holds the line
  • The traveling longboarder who wants a dedicated good-wave board to pair with their everyday shape

This is the board you reach for when the surf turns on.

WHEN

The G6 is built for quality surf in the chest-high-and-up range, where there's enough power in the wave to engage the channels and turn them into speed and grip. It comes alive on cleaner faces with real shoulder, in steeper pocket sections that demand control, and in larger or hollower conditions where most longboards start to feel out of their depth. Hawaii's better days — when the trades back off and the swell lines up — are exactly the window this board is designed to take advantage of. It's not a small-day longboard, and it's not trying to be.

WHAT

The G6's defining design feature is six channels running through the bottom of the board. Channels add acceleration by guiding water cleanly off the tail instead of letting it spill out the rails, and they add hold by giving the board multiple grip points when it's set on edge in a powerful section. Paired with the channels is a unique continual rocker — flatter and straighter through the tail than Harley's standard HP rocker, which is what gives the G6 its drive and pocket control, with an extended nose lift that helps the front of the board stay free in steep drops and harder turns. The result is a longboard that wants to go fast in good surf and rewards the surfer who pushes it.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is the G6 the right board for me?

The G6 is best suited to surfers who already have a longboard they ride often, who feel comfortable on bigger, cleaner days, and who want more performance from their longboard than their current board delivers. If you're newer to longboarding or you mainly surf small, soft conditions, the G6 isn't the right starting point — it's designed around channels and a performance rocker that need power in the wave to come alive. The G6 is offered at a single 9'1" size, which makes it best matched to the rider it was tuned around. If you want help deciding whether the G6 is the right call for you and your conditions, contact us directly and we'll talk it through:

When you reach out, include your current board dimensions and volume, what other longboards you've ridden, the type of breaks you surf most (beach break, reef break, point break), how often you surf, how you want to ride the G6 (more performance turning or more pocket-driven trim), and your location — location affects shipping options and helps us give you accurate delivery information.

How is the G6 different from a regular longboard?

The G6 is purpose-built for stronger, cleaner surf, while most longboards are designed to glide and trim across a wide range of conditions. Three things make it different: the six-channel bottom adds acceleration and hold that a flat-bottom longboard doesn't have, the rocker is straighter through the tail and lifted through the nose for more drive and faster turning, and the high-performance Thunderbolt Black construction makes it lighter and more responsive than a traditional log. It's a longboard you'd add to your quiver alongside your everyday board, not one that replaces it. When the surf is small or mushy, your regular longboard will be more fun. When it's chest-high and clean and the inside section starts walling up, the G6 is the one you want.

Should I ride the G6 as a tri or as a quad?

Both setups work, and the right choice depends on the conditions you're surfing. Harley Ingleby's recommendation is the FCS Harley XL tri set for regular conditions, where the trailer fin gives you control and a connected feel through turns. For larger open faces or hollower surf, he recommends the FCS Harley XL quad set, which removes the trailer to free up the tail and let the board accelerate harder through the turn. A lot of G6 owners also run the quad on smaller days when they want the board to feel looser and faster than the tri delivers. The 4+1 fin box gives you the flexibility to swap based on the day.

What type of surf is the G6 surfboard designed for?

The G6 surfboard is designed for good surf in the chest high plus range.

What is unique about the rocker of the G6 surfboard?

The G6 surfboard has a unique continual rocker with a straighter tail and a longer increased nose lift than the HP rocker.

How many channels does the G6 surfboard have?

The G6 surfboard has 6 channels, which makes it an acceleration machine.

What fin setup is recommended for the G6 surfboard in regular conditions?

In regular conditions, the FCS Harley XL tri set is recommended for the G6 surfboard.

What fin setup is recommended for the G6 surfboard in larger open faces or hollow surf?

In larger open faces or hollow surf, the FCS Harley XL quad set is recommended for the G6 surfboard.
