Firewire The Gem Helium Longboard This is sale surfboard - Sale boards are last of's, old stock, have minor blemishes or minor discolouration. Contact us if you require further information before purchasing. The Gem is a collaboration between Dan Mann and 2X World Longboard Champion Taylor Jensen. 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 TJPro and his TJEveryday. 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. He and Taylor decided to call this model The Gem because of how valuable it is – a one board quiver for 9 foot plus board riders that can trim on the nose as easily as it can carve on rail. The diamond tail isn’t a coincidence. It’s a Gem. About this board: Construction: HeliumFin Boxes: Box Single + Futures Side Bytes - Fins not includedTail shape: Diamond TailDimensions/Litres: See size graph above About Helium 2 Construction: The same expanded lifespan beyond traditional materials that many expect from FST, in addition to the gentle compression beneath your feet that others love about LFT. We used the lightest foam we have to make Helium, combined with a brand new rail crafted from both balsa wood and paulownia wood. It’s all wrapped in a brand new deckskin material we’re introducing for the first time. 1 – Entropy Bio-Resin Throughout2 – High density Aerospace Composite Deckskin3 – Top & Bottom Deck Sandwich Cloth4 – Parabolic Balsa & Paulownia Wood Rails5 – 0.8 lb EPS CoreHELIUM – ECOBOARD Verified – LEVEL ONE About Firewire Surfboards: Firewire is dedicated to elevating the surfing experience through innovative design, new materials, and advanced construction methods.
