Thunderbolt HI Mid 6 - Mini Surfbard, Orange
The MID6 range is now available in sizes sub 7 foot! Opening up one of our favourite boards to the wider surfing community and really blurring the lines between the mid length and full performance surfboard markets.
The MID6 range is designed for exceptional mid-length performance in all wave types. Its features include a fine round pin tail, curvy plan shape, smooth rocker with a touch of nose flip, making it comfortable for deep pocket turns and long open-face arcs. The board has high nose rails transitioning to a tucked midsection and low hard tail, offering a balanced drive through sections and maintaining control during tight turns. While the MID6 excels in everyday surf conditions, it can handle serious waves comfortably.
Bill has masterfully integrated six channels into the design, striking a perfect balance. These channels are not overly aggressive, allowing for easy manoeuvrability, line adjustments, and arc length modifications on the wave's face. With the channels positioned between your feet, turning response is immediate, and acceleration is unmatched.
The MID6 dispels the notion that channel bottoms are only effective in clean waves; it performs well in all conditions.

Thunderbolt Technology utilizes advanced materials and technology to decrease weight while enhancing performance, flex characteristics, board control, and durability. Mass-produced epoxy boards are corky and stiff. While light and durable, they simply don’t ride well. But Thunderbolt’s hand-built boards take superior epoxy materials to an entirely different level. These boards provide the feel and sensitivity of a good poly board, but deliver performance far beyond traditional epoxy pop-out constructions. Indeed, those who ride these high-tech epoxy boards claim they actually feel better than polyurethane.
Thunderbolt Surfboards are 100% hand layups. They begin with an EPS foam core with multi-component carbon fiber stringer systems that produce engineered flex and twist for a more lively, responsive performance. Proprietary designs employing internal carbon fiber components are then arrayed in the deck and bottom of the deck for precise flex control and strength.
The core shield PVC provides flexible protection to increase strength and durability without compromising the flex and twist characteristics built into the blank. With ample carbon fiber and fiberglass in the deck, bottom, and rails, these boards both outperform and outlast traditional PU boards and other epoxy designs.
