Surfboard by Firewire

• Helium Core Technology 
• 2 + 1 fin set-up
• Collaboration between Dan Mann and 3x World Longboard Champion, Taylor Jensen.
• One board quiver for 9-foot plus board riders that can trim on the nose as easily as it can carve on a rail.
• The diamond tail isn’t a coincidence. It’s a Gem.

This is World Longboard Champion Taylor Jensen's "one longboard in the trunk" option for both trim and turns. Earlier this year Taylor asked Dan to consider a ‘one board in the trunk’ option for long boarders who want both trim and turns - he was essentially asking Dan for a design that would land somewhere between his TJ Pro and his TJ Everyday. Dan’s response was an intriguing intersection of shortboard-style concaves with a longboard-style outline and the same fin placements that Taylor likes in all his boards.

Responsive, Ligthweight & Durable

Helium Technology

This is your ideal technology choice for generating speed in weak, everyday waves.
Firewire's Helium technology is a stringerless 1.0 lb EPS foam core with flex controlled with rails made from Paulownia and Balsa wood, running the complete length from nose to tail, combined with a 3mm proprietary aerospace composite deck skin.
The wood rails enable a lively flex in the rail that gives a loaded-up, spring-back feeling, and the deck skins make your board feel this way for a long time.
Helium deck skins are beneficial for both durability and performance - and have a memory that will rebound back to form after being compressed, making it very responsive in addition to keeping your deck surface pristine for many years.
