The S Boss is the epitome of user-friendly, high-performance surfboard design. Crafted through the collaboration between Kelly Slater and Dan Mann, this board merges the pursuit of advanced surfing with accessibility for all skill levels. Featuring a relaxed rocker, a forgiving fin cluster, and a full outline with strategically hidden volume, the S Boss is designed to be the most versatile board in your Slater Designs quiver.
Its shape is engineered to deliver exceptional performance across a wide range of conditions. Whether you're aiming for the best turn of your life or pushing the limits with aerial maneuvers like Kevin Schulz, the S Boss is built to help you achieve your goals. It’s recommended to pair the S Boss with the KS1 fin template, set up as a quad, for optimal performance. Dan Mann suggests choosing a board on the higher side of your volume range for the best experience.
Kevin Schulz, who weighs 168 lbs, prefers the 5’6” (27.6L) for smaller waves and the 5’7” (28.1L) for larger waves. To complete your setup, pairing the S Boss with Slater Designs traction and leash will enhance your surfing experience.
