Discover the Firewire Special T Helium: the nose-rider longboard

Are you looking for a traditional-style board for your surfing sessions? The Firewire Special T Helium is the flagship ‘old school’ model in the Firewire range. Designed and developed in collaboration with surfer Taylor Jensen, this longboard brings together all the expertise needed to deliver a smooth and natural ride on the wave.

An old-school design ideal for nose riding

The Firewire Special T Helium incorporates very specific shaping features that make it an excellent Firewire nose-riding board:

  • 50/50 rails: These provide a classic, smooth feel in the water, characteristic of traditional boards.
  • Nose scoop: This hollowed-out design beneath the front of the board generates the lift needed to keep the nose rider stable whilst moving forwards.
  • Pronounced flip tail: The pronounced lift at the rear helps maintain control and facilitates pivoting during manoeuvres from the tail.
  • Reduced nose rocker: The reduced rocker at the front improves glide speed and makes ‘tip riding’ easier.

Dimensions and volumes of the Firewire Taylor Jensen longboard

To suit your build and riding style, this Firewire Taylor Jensen longboard is available in several sizes:

  • 8'0 x 22" x 2"3/4 — Volume: 56.4 L
  • 9'0 x 22"3/4 x 3" — Volume: 71.3 L
  • 9'3 x 22"3/4 x 3" — Volume: 73.5 L

Each of these versions retains the original technical balance, particularly the 9'0 model with its 71.3 L volume, which is perfect for ensuring a quick take-off and optimum stability on the water.
