Owners rating:

he Boss Up, designed by Dan Mann in collaboration with Kelly Slater and Kevin Schulz, is the ultimate versatile midlength surfboard. As the bigger brother of the S Boss, it excels in a wide range of surf conditions, from weak wave faces to overhead tubes. It is recomended to ride it with +13 liters more volume than your standard shortboard and the KS1 5 Fin Template as a Quad. Suitable for all levels, the Boss Up features a single to double concave, moderate rockers, and medium rails, making it ideal for 2-8ft waves. The Boss Up is truly a dynamic and responsive ride, perfect for carving and linking turns on open faces or tackling big point breaks like Pavones or Rincon.

RETAIL PRICE: $900.00 USD

The Boss up is the bigger brother of the S Boss, Kelly’s first-ever midlength.

Designed by Dan Mann in partnership with Kelly Slater and Kevin Schulz, this utility midlength is the most well-rounded and versatile shape in the Slater Designs range, crafted to cruise across weak wave faces and grind through cavernous overhead tubes.

The Boss Up is the board you would travel with if you could only bring one board with you. Your one board quiver with maximum performance in a purely versatile package.

Recommended to ride roughly +13 liters more volume than your standard shortboard, paired with the KS1 5 Fin Template configured as a Quad.
