The deck does show some good discoloration as is common with these earlier Firewires - otherwise very clean with just some minor pressures concentrated mostly under the front foot. The belly is also really clean with just the faintest evidence of pressures and use! Our in-house repair team did perform a reseal on one of the tail tips. Like all of our repairs, this was done professionally and is flush, smooth, and ALWAYS 100% watertight. Ready to wax and ride!!! FROM FIREWIRE/MACHADO SURFBOARDS: This board just makes me want to surf… no matter what the waves are like. If it's small and weak this board just flies. If it's over head and pumping it draws such a unique line. It makes me approach waves differently and explore new lines. From a distance, the outline pays homage to the old school fish (skip frye, steve lis) but if you pull out a tape measure you will find some subtle changes. I’ve narrowed up the swallow tip to tip to give the board i little bit more maneuverability. I also narrowed the nose a touch to give more of a speedy outline. The rocker is fairly relaxed. Low entry rocker through the front end with very little rocker out the tail. This board gets up and goes and it goes fast. The “board eat board” bottom is my favorite part of this board. I feel like it really brings this model to life. It works so well with the keel fin set up using the 2 panels on each side. The single deep concave running down the middle makes this board super speedy out of the gates. Price: $275.00
