Looks similar to the death star Stu Kennedy rode out at Trestles. They look more like a funky wakeboard than a surfboard. Everything you know about volume, length and surface area is wrong! Apparently Tom Curren is riding them too.Originally Posted by prjwebb
Didn't get any pics I'm afraid. Was too busy chatting and Mark and Myles had a busy day ahead of them so couldn't keep them for too long.
This shot gives you an idea of how crazy that board is though! Just doesn't seem surfable!
Jesus is coming, look busy!
Moving forward or just spinning faster?

That thing looks scary and wrong for so many reasons.....cant get my head around it.
good that these stories of service are on here for all to read...having been looked after by Nev since the dark ages.. (including rush jobs while the tour was in town)..(try that with the other big name shapers), it was a given that firewire would use a professional business model thats totally new to the surf industry...it doesn't hurt having mark price at the helm either...and chuy and the guys in OZ etc...and of course, last but not least, your forum leader chris..........

Haha I know exactly what you mean. Even holding it I was in disbelief. It's 5'4 x 18" x 2.5" for the record and some how has about 29l hidden away in there. Mark said 2ft to 6ft and the thing has been blowing him away. It sounds interesting for sure.

Hey All, use my Firewire email, [email protected] for emergency issues, not my forum inbox. However, please avoid contacting me directly with questions on choosing a board, just use the glorious forum. Cheers!
Thanks for looking after your customers!
Huh, that's interesting cause the FW website says that size board is 25.6L, guess that's why they call it a prototype. Thanks for sharing!
