Groove

Introducing the Firewire Groove, an exquisite shortboard designed by renowned surfer Rob Machado, known for its exceptional performance and innovative engineering. The Groove is crafted using Firewire's advanced Helium Core technology, accompanied by a robust fiberglass lamination. This unique construction not only enhances the board's buoyancy but also ensures a super lightweight feel, making it perfect for quick maneuvers and dynamic surfing. The black colorway offers a sleek and modern aesthetic, appealing to surfers who appreciate both form and function.

Measuring at 5'7" x 19 1/2" x 2 5/16" with a volume of 29.2L, the Groove is designed for those aiming to maximize their ride characteristics in a variety of surf conditions, from waist-high to overhead. The board features a strategically heightened rocker and a refined tail template, ensuring that it excels in high-performance scenarios, allowing for tight turns off the bottom and powerful snaps off the lip. The nose rocker is tailored to minimize the chances of catching, providing a smooth and controlled descent off the wave's lip. With its hybrid DNA, the Groove incorporates width and thickness at the nose for improved paddle power, seamlessly transitioning into a pulled-in squash tail for optimal shreddability.

Rob Machado’s vision for the Groove stems from his desire to marry classic high-performance surfing with modern sensibilities. Whether you're executing rapid transitions or carving through powerful surfs, the Groove promises to deliver sensitivity and responsiveness. Ideal for surfers looking to tap into high-performance surfing while still maintaining versatility, the board can be paired with Machado’s specialized fin sets for heightened customization.
