Hardcore or Boss

Bro's,
out of the two (Inzer Hardcore or Titan Boss) which suit do you feel put the most weight on your squat? THANKS! -BB

I you look at the two suits side by side, it is no contest for the Boss. The Hardcore suit is much thinner, and is IPF legal. If you lift in the APF, IPA, or APA and do not wear a canvas suit, the Boss is the next best suit.

Thanks Ermantroudt! Yea, I've heard a lot of the same stuff but, I wanted to see what you guys thought. Titan also makes it to you specs for $150, compared to $145 for the hardcore (which isn't a custom). I'll let you know how it works out, thanks again! -BB

Aside from waiting for Titan to make it for you, I have a feeling you will be very happy with a Boss Suit, I know I am.

ermantroudt... do you the boss briefs as well?

The two suits work differently for different people, from what i've heard, the hardcore gives you much more rebound, if you are the type of squatter that just drops down then back up, the boss suit doesn't offer as much rebound, in my opinion, but if you sit back into it, like a box squat it works really well.

Not yet, I am still using the NXG Dual Quad Briefs.

Thanks guys, I am about to get a suit too and was thinking about the Boss or the Frantz Double Poly. I think I am gonna go ahead and get the Boss. I was told that you could get any suit they made in the Boss material. Does anyone have any suggestions on which one to use? I would like to get the custom boss one, but I don't want to spend 150 right now. Thanks guys

I think the Boss suit is a Dual Quad made from the Boss material, you want the harness system.

What exactly does the harness system do?

I am not a scientist, but...I am a wide stance squatter, and when I sit back onto the harness, it prevents the suit from giving too much. I attached a drawing from the Titan site which illustrates how the harness is sewen into the suit.

**JMcQuaid** · 12-02-2002, 10:09 AM

So the harness system pretty much will stop you in the whole?

Well, I have posted a question similar to this on titan's forum. All the suits they make are available with boss material. The Boss stock was the one I was told to get, it is just a stock sized suit with boss material. The Dual Quad with boss is supposed to be very good, and there is a completely custom one made from boss that also has the harness system. I hope that this helps

The "stock" Boss and Centurian are the same suit made out of different material, the Boss made from the Boss material and the Centurian is made from NXG. The Dual Quad and the Custom Boss are the tailor made versions of those suits.

Cool. Do you happen to know how much either of the suits are? I am gonna try to get the briefs first to try out and if I like them I am gonna get the suits. Thanks
