How Demo Days Work
Participating is simple: we'll ask you to sign a waiver and leave an item of similar value for collateral. And that's it! You'll be able to try as many boards as you want during event hours, depending on availability.
Try Before You Buy
Participants have the opportunity to try our latest surfboard models, fins, and accessories. Engage in 1-on-1 conversations with our trusted Surfboard Designers, Team Riders, and Sales Reps, and enjoy a fun day with your local surf community. This is a great chance to test out the gear before making a purchase.
Featured Surfboard: The Boss Up
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. It’s 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, offering maximum performance in a purely versatile package. Recommended to ride roughly +13 litres more volume than your standard shortboard, paired with the KS1 5 Fin Template configured as a Quad.
Wave Type and Board Features
Versatility
This is the most versatile board in the Slater Designs range, working in everything from smaller surf to barrels. The crew loves it in punchy surf with an open face, making it perfect for carving and linking turns. While many view this shape for small, gutless surf, it excels at big point breaks like Pavones or Rincon, and even big days at Sunset.
Board Specifications
The Boss Up is an elongated evolution of the S Boss, featuring bigger dimensions and a longer rail line for enhanced drive and versatility across all conditions. This shape doesn't require precise volume tuning - any surfer can ride the Boss Up in various sizes. The team recommends around +13 litres of volume more than your standard shortboard.
