Firewire Volcanic Sweet Potato 5’2″ Futures Surfboard

The NEW Sweet Potato is the refined swallow tail version of the original Sweet Potato. The Sweet Potato converts waves that would normally require a longboard (or even just be a non-surf day) into loads and loads of fun because of the insane amount of volume packed into a very short board that is loose and packs tons of drive. The trademark deep double barrel concave essentially splits the board in half when tipped over and driving through turns, making the board feel way more narrow than it actually is. The new tail outline, combined with some tweaks on the bottom contours through the fins, has increased the maneuverability for tighter pocket turns without taking away the projection and grovel speed in gutless surf. Volcanic Tech is made from Basalt Fibres extruded from volcanic rocks that are crushed, melted and extruded into woven fibres that make up the cloth layers that wrap around the board. The cloth features similar characteristics to carbon in regard to strength and weight however, being constructed from natural organic materials, it is a better degradable ECO alternative than traditional carbon fibre cloth. Basalt fibres have better strength characteristics than traditional glass fibres, and unlike most glass fibres is highly resistant to alkaline, acidic and salt corrosion. Basalt fibres also have more flex than traditional Carbon fibre, allowing the board to have more flex for a natural feel under foot.
