The Gromflex Series is a morphed down version of our hi performance Flexfire series for all those frothing Groms who paddle deeper, take off on anything and just wanting to smash and boost above the lip. The designs feature slightly thicker and wider noses than the Flexfires combined with a thicker tail area, and slightly blockier rails in the tail. Groms are already pushing surfing to new limits and NEED boards that can keep up! Sizes range from 5’2 to 5’10”.

The Technology

Firewire Surfboards’ Future Shapes Technology features controlled flex memory with rapid rebound.  The parabolic balsa wood rails flex at the start of a turn storing energy and rebound through the turn, releasing built up energy in the form of speed.  The spring back of the parabolic rails to the original rocker triggers rapid acceleration, like an arrow shot from a bow.  Combined with the composite materials used in Firewire’s sandwich construction, parabolic balsa rails reduce material fatigue and ensure that the board maintains its long-lasting “twang.”

The Materials

Using expanded polystyrene foam cores, high-density foam outer skins and high-tech epoxy resins, Firewire surfboards are up to 20% lighter than traditional polyurethane foam boards, and maintains its “new board” liveliness 5-10 times longer.  Furthermore, the use of parabolic balsa rails and composite materials reduces premature denting and material fatigue.

NOTE: Due to non-standard (oversized) packaging, surfboards are shipped by a different carrier and incur additional shipping fees.  When ordering a surfboard, please select Ground shipping – the stated fee will NOT be charged to your card.  The actual fee will be calculated once the board has been packaged and weighed, and if substantially different, you will be contacted prior to our charging this fee to your card.
