My Favorite Midlength? Meet the Boss Up by Dan Mann.

[@ThomyeSurfs]

right on, thanks for the insight. Can't wait to try it. Would be an awesome comparison to the Mid6. From the looks of it, it has less rocker, so this looks more suited for every day OC surf.

[@erickim8862]

please throw up a review and comparison!

[@charleshawk6668]

Thought the mid6 was your favorite?

[@stringcheezus-ftw]

Yeah for real, wonder how this stacks up again the mid6 mini

[@mauricegourmet]

Love the Boss up. The rails and rocker make this board such a great mid length.

[@ThomyeSurfs]

LOL. when i looked at it, it to me felt like the Boss Up sat between the Mid6 and Sunday. It has less rocker than the Mid6 but more than the Sunday. I loved the Mid6 but it felt like a step up more than a mid length. I am super curious how this would compare to the mini version though. It almost looked like they flattened the mini version a bit. Not sure though, I haven't held one. :(

[@stringcheezus-ftw]

@@ThomyeSurfs I surf both the 7'0 Mid6 and a 6'8 Mid6 mini. The rocker profile on the mini is verrrrry similar to the 7'0. I find myself naturally surfing the 6'8 on smaller days, but it admittedly doesn't feel like the right board as kind of feels like just a smaller step up :/. Still my favorite board in my quiver right now, don't get me wrong 😅

His favorite midlength is whatever firewire tells him it is.

[@StokedForTravel]

Looking forward to getting mine in the water this week - went all in on the midlength with the 7'2, so lets see how that goes at the points in Aus! 🤙

[@sachaDS0]

So, how did that go ?

[@tflatter8912]

Love the shape performance mid lengths are coming around lately definitely a different wave approach and flow with a middy from a short board

[@a.lame.username.]

Mid length boards in small surf is 1975 style of surfing. The entire reason we have grovelers is so you can ride high volume shortboards. I have a ridiculous number of boards and would never choose a mid length for sub head high surf.

[@xwhite2020]

On a nice lined up reef, give me the midlength any day.

[@countryroadstakemehome]

Yeah well, that's just like your opinion, man.

[@hawaiiansouthshore]

Great review Kevin!

[@SurfEvolve-hp9ed]

I Reckon it was designed in 2 foot US Surf, my first Wave I've created a small 'Back foot preasure indent to the left side of the stringer in a 3 foot Wave in OZ.... the Ibolic glass needs to be stronger for 90 Kilo's guys ! BOSS UP PlUS , I'm re selling ... spewing

[@stevecameron1743]

Yep the Ibolic Tech is soft as hell! The volcanic in the Boss Up is way better…like ‘chalk and cheese!’

[@SurfEvolve-hp9ed]

@@stevecameron1743 Thanks for confirming, Firewire Oz brushed off the damage, said it was nothing.

[@FrankTankFlinns]

Great vid...

[@larrydowling5213]

Ot looks like the Harley Ingelby Mid6 without the channels

[@borisypablo]

and more cheap

[@anthonyjacquot2305]

think it looks a bit like the M23 from Al Merrick...

[@dluan2153]

legit have no clue how he had a straight face the entire video lol gotta pack as many buzzwords in as possible

[@dfiglide]

Longer boards are coming to win us.

[@kevinjleighton]

Would this board be a good as a first board after learning on a long board?

[@brian2973]

How tall is Jason?

[@CaptainForest1]

You could hear it in Kevin‘s voice he hast to catch himself from talking shit on the board. Boards that work for the public makes more money than boards that work for pros.

[@andreafavilli8527]

Firewire high price lo quality

[@zach1978]

Don’t get why guys try to ride midlengths, twinnies, etc like a normal performance shortboard. It’s ugly, and lacks flow and style.

[@countryroadstakemehome]

Benny bograil Zach we used to call him.

[@jimrehman904]

I was thinking the same, just didn't`t want to say it... It's like long boarders that try too hard.
