Mid 6 – FCS II 5 Fin

The Mid6 range is designed to deliver maximum performance for medium-length boards in all types of waves. The slim, rounded pin tail, the flowing shape and the smooth rocker with a slight nose flip are just as comfortable when turning deep in the pocket as they are on long, open turns.

High nose rails that transition into the mid and low hard rails at the tail, tapered from the centre, provide a nice balance between drive through sections whilst still maintaining grip on tight turns.

Although the Mid6 performs excellently in everyday surfing, the board is also refined enough to comfortably handle serious waves. Bill has blended the six channels perfectly. They aren’t so aggressive that they get stuck during turns, and it’s very easy to break a line or extend your turn at any point on the wave. With the channels balanced between your feet, the response is immediate when you push hard through a turn, and the acceleration is unrivalled compared to any other board I’ve ever owned.

The Mid6 breaks the stereotype that channel bottoms are only good in clean waves. It has proven to be good at everything.

FIN SET-UPS: Thruster or quad fin set-ups work well with six channels for a positive feel. For 6’4” – 7’0”, the new FCS Harley large mid set is recommended, and for the 7’6” and 7’10” Mid6, the FCS Harley XL quad set is recommended. Other fin combinations can also work well, but we recommend opting for medium to large quad rear fins with an 80/20 foil, combined with any flat large to XL front fins.
