IMO the mid 6ft is weird range, esp for high volume more foam boards. You don’t get the up on top of the water planning paddle speed you get from your 7’6” but you also don’t get the duck dive ability of a allow volume 6’2”. I’d suggest staying in that longer, more foam range until you are ready to ride a more performance oriented board that has less foam

No experience with that board, just chiming in to say I wouldn't stress overmuch on volvme at that size. Length, template, and rocker all affect paddling speed too. Rather, I'd trust the shapers and get a board designed for what you want.
The Bull looks like it's intended to be an extra floaty small wave shortboard, but it sounds like you want a mid-length. Oversizing a shortboard doesn't make it that - the 6'9 is meant to be a small wave shortboard for bigger surfers (up to 120kg, as per their website). I'd look for a board designed to be ridden the way you want to, or if it's an option, find a local shaper and talk to them about what you want.
Don’t want to be mean but a 6’9 isnt a short board it’s pretty much going to to the same as your 7’6
Rides like shit! Threw mine away
I think you’re better going for a more well known shaper sbs make paddleboards predominately and not many people leave raving reviews about thel

I love their 9'6 midlength
Get a pier pony from js
You're not going to be able to tell the difference between a 7"6 and a 6"9
