MID 6

Description

Shaped by Billy Tolhurst The Mid6 range has been designed to give maximum mid-length performance in all wave types. The fine, round pin tail, curvy plan shape, smooth rocker, with a bit of nose flip is equally comfortable turning deep in the pocket or long open-face arcs. High nose rails through to mid tucked and low hard in the tail, foiled from the centre for a nice balance of drive through sec-tions while maintaining hold through tight turning arcs. While the Mid 6 fires in everyday surf, it is tuned enough to handle some pretty serious surf comfortably. Bill has blended the 6 channels perfectly. They are not so aggressive that they track in turns at all and it’s very easy to break a line or adjust your arc length anywhere on the wave’s face. With the channels balanced between your feet, when you push hard through a turn the response is immediate and the acceleration throughout is like no other board I have ever owned. The Mid 6 breaks the channel bottom ste-reotype that they’re only good in clean waves. It has proven to be good in everything. FINS : Thruster or quad fin setups work with six channels for a positive feel. 6’4 – 7’0 the new FCS Harley large mid set is recommended, and the FCS Harley XL quad set is recommended for the 7’6 and 7’10 Mid 6. Other fin combinations may work well but we’d suggest sticking with medium to large quad rears that have an 80/20 foil combined with any flat foiled large to XL front fins.
