Firewire Surfboards Ibolic S Boss - 5' 11" round pin Grey

The Most User-Friendly High-Performance Shape Ever

The S Boss merges Kelly Slater’s relentless pursuit of performance with Dan Mann’s commitment to accessible, progressive design.

Built with a relaxed rocker, balanced fin placement, a full outline, and strategically distributed volume, the S Boss delivers unparalleled versatility within the Slater Designs lineup. Designed to maximize speed, control, and manoeuvrability, it thrives across a wide range of conditions and skill levels.

Engineered for Performance in Every Condition

This board is tuned for responsive turning, explosive airs, and seamless transitions, making it a go-to choice for waves ranging from 2 to 6 feet. The recommended KS1 quad fin setup enhances stability while allowing for tight pivots and sustained speed through sections.

• Optimized Volume: Best ridden at the upper end of your volume preference for added paddle power and control.
• Tail Design & Flow: A subtle double concave runs through the back half, channeling water efficiently off the round tail for lift and drive.
• Wave Range: Performs exceptionally in punchy beach breaks and clean point waves, excelling when conditions hit chest- to head-high.
