Loading... Please wait...Firewire's Marketing Director, Chuy Reyna, was looking for all the benefits of the Dominator but even more performance. The SPITFIRE combines a Diamond tail and STEP-DOWN tail rail, giving the SPITFIRE the tail bite of a thinner board, without losing the Dominator's speed and flotation. The SPITFIRE offers the same 5/4/3 fin options and a low entry rocker for easy paddling. Developed in conjunction with Surfboard Suspension Systems, RF's core is shaped from 2lb fused EPS foam and the bamboo skin is applied using Firewire's proven sandwich construction. Unlike FST and DD, the 2lb foam and bamboo deck sandwich do not require a vent. The interior carbon rods work with the bamboo skin to optimize flex patterns, maximizing speed and drive through turns, and while not as dent resistant as the DD or FST aerospace composite skin, the bamboo does create significant compression strength. Please note our boards are definitely not indestructible and if slammed by a thick lip, or if you land incorrectly in the flats after doing an aerial, it is possible to break them. RF's flex characteristic is similar to FST and the overall effect is a highly tuned, durable surfboard with increased performance AND strength versus traditional surfboard constructions. RF retails in line with premium PU surfboards. So whether you prefer the pinnacle technology of Direct Drive, the Parabolic Balsa Rail performance of Future Shapes Technology or the hybrid technology of RapidFIRE, Firewire continues to define the 'Future of Shape.' SURFBOARD SHIPS WITHOUT FINS. PRICE DOES NOT INCLUDE SHIPPING.

Purchased my Spitfire in a hurry after breaking my comp board with a competition the following day! The next morning we lucked out with the first of a 4 day ground swell 4'-5' @ 9 seconds for testing. The performance was unmatched by any glass board I've surfed so far; spitfire out-classess the rest. Super responsive turns & cutbacks even as a quad. Amazingly survived the crumbly surf as the winds shifted (never changed boards). The spitfire Winds up fast and coninues to generate speed easily. I Chose this for a comp board but happy to say I'll be riding it everyday in all conditions. Thanks Outerbanks Boarding Company for hooking me up!
