Firewire Surfboards’ Description

Catch a tune. Find your groove. Rob Machado's favorite performance thruster.

Are you experienced? Have you ever been experienced?

I fee like my designs are slowly moving in the direction of being more and more performance driven. After stopping the tour, I went as far away from high performance as I could. I wanted to feel what all these different designs had to offer out there in the world. Twins, single fins, bonzers....etc.

The groove is an exploration back into the world of a high performance thruster but with an outline twist, giving you some width and thickness up front for extra paddle-ability but giving you a nice pulled in squash tail for high performance shred-ability.

I designed it for waves with a bit of push and power. Probably waist high to overhead. But it goes great in weak waves too, I just wouldn't go as far as calling it a groveler.

To tap back into my old school high performance days, my Groove Thruster set is a must. To add a bit of a twist in smaller surf, you can run it with my 2+1 template.

WAVE TYPE

This shape excels in everything head-high and under. But if you take it on a boat trip, that works too. "I build versatility in to every design he shapes", says Rob Machado. "I build speed and ease-of-use in every surfboard I make."

MORE ON THE SHAPE

"Thinned out the foil, narrowed the tail block. Added a cute little squash tail. And much more rocker than I've been riding the last several years. I tapped in to all my performance DNA that was in my shapes in the 90s, and added sprinkles of my recent design work, making surfboards that are fast, floaty and fun in all conditions." - Rob Machado
