Cool that they are not tight lipped about all the details...or great job getting it out of him! 😂
Hawaiian South Shore! Lookin good Dave!🤙🏽 Aloha, Blane
Mahalos Blane 🤙🏽🤙🏽
I love Dan Mann. He’s a great guy! But it sounds like Kelly commissioned him to make him a Tomo style board. “Bullet nose”, Vee bottom, channels, parallel outline, short outline. Sounds a lot like a Tomo Revo but Kelly’s version of it.
Maybe...the outline doesn't seem to resemble a Tomo. I think if Kelly asked 5 different shapers for the same board...5 different boards would be shaped IMO.
Resembles the omni more than revo besides the spine or even the hydroshort
@@foxgd9117 good to know
You guys ROCK! You’ve shipped boards to me in Hilo. Very professional, very fast.🤙🏼🤙🏼🌴🌊🏄🏼🌋
Oh Right on big Mahalo for taking the time to give us a review !! Let me know how the board works for you. - David
Can we get a S-Boss+ for us bigger guys? I’m’ 6’2 x220lbs not sure the current dims would work.
The biggest size that's currently available is 6'4'x 20" x 2 5/16" V37.7.
We have guys a few guys that ride this volume that are pushing 215. I've never seen them surf but listening to them it seems like they are really good surfers.
What is your normal volume?
Maybe a Harley Ingleby Mid 6 or Moe might be a really good alternative.
The two models are our #1 selling boards for the past 2 years and the last batch we sold out before we even received the boards.
This was our fist batch and no one even see the actual boards until they picked it up. That's how popular these things are.
Here is video to Mid6

Thank you, my normal volume for really weak waves is around 40L and 37 ish for solid waves. It would've been cool to have the length of the board a little shorter with the higher volume. For an FRK+ I would need a 6'4 to compensate my weight. Guess I need to lose some weight.

@@ClearPurgeDestroy No worries anytime...Im in the same boat..need to lose weight😅. - David
Reverse v?
@@MrRobinski I texted Dan and he said "Double barrel reverse V"- David
That’s sick although if I had a visual of what Dan’s talking about in terms of the design that would be awesome😂🎉😅
Yes sorry about that ...at the time we didnt ahve the board...we should get the video update.....your right though our team will update the video for sure~! Thanks for pointing that out - David
Here's an updated video about the design

Enjoy!
What are Dan Mann's measures ? Height and weight ?
Not sure...I just texted Dan to find out...as soon as he replies I'll update you. - David
@gpecurto Hi Dan Mann just texted me he's 6‘2“ (188 cm) and 190lbs (86kg). Dan Mann has the 5'11" size on the S Boss.
@@hawaiiansouthshore Thank you David! I was looking all over the internet for that. Dan likes to keep himself under the radar! 🙂
@@gpecurto No worries, yes for sure he's totally under the radar. FW never really put him in the spot light and I thought that was a totally undeserving. So when he came to our shop just before covid I had an opportunity to sit down and talk story (Hawaii term) and from their I was really stoked to learn so much. Then I did a few zoom calls and each time he's just giving me so much info. Stoked to be able to interview him.
Hopefully I asked all the right questions...I notice I said "underside" in the video instead of bottom , I've never said that before not sure where that came from...LOL 🤣
Any demo/rental boards? Lol
LOL we will let you know once we have one. The inventory is very limited right now. 🤙🏽
Great job picking his brain
Aweseome Thank you!!
