Stuey Kennedy riding the FireWire Mindcraft 🧠🛸

Stu looks right at home on the Tomo Firewire Surfboards Mindcraft in I-Bolic 2.0 Technology.

Designed by Tomo and Kelly Slater, the Mindcraft is the result of their quest to create the ultimate minimalist high-performance shortboard. Featuring smoother, more continuous, and more subtle bottom contours than Tomo’s past models, this design offers plenty of speed with a moderate performance rocker, a single-to-double concave, and a bump-wing round tail with five fin boxes.

BOARD OF THE WEEK - JS Surfboards XERO FUSION ⚡️. The Xero Fusion is a performance-oriented, user-friendly model for flatter faced waves. Positioned between the Xero Gravity all-rounder and the Sub Xero super groveller, this is JS industries latest small wave weapon to fill an essential role in any surfer’s quiver.

It’s been designed with the iconic and timeless Blak Box rocker with a new and updated blend of outline curves, modern rail shapes and a narrower swallow tail. This tail shape provides more outline curve from nose to tail enhancing the overall glide of the board in weaker conditions.

The new Xero Fusion features a combination of extra foam distribution throughout the rail line leaving the volume where you need it. However, the rails are pulled down to create the sensitivity you need in a board with plenty of extra foam hidden throughout.

This has been a winning combination for JS throughout a lot of our favourite boards in recent years. Xero Fusion is incredibly fast due to the Blak Box rocker providing instant acceleration, suited even more to small waves compared to the Xero Gravity.

Backhand Attack! Jackson Dorian

The Slater Designs DRK in I-Bolic 2.0 Technology is a refined evolution of the FRK, built for high-performance surfing in quality waves.

It retains the rocker, bottom contours, and fin placement that made the FRK a favorite, while refining the rail and foil for more balance under the chest. The wide point is also pushed slightly forward, narrowing the back half of the board and creating more sensitivity off the tail.

The Firewire Surfboards Seaside Model just got a lot more vibrant. 🎨 🖌️ Rob Machado Todd DiCiurcio

Introducing the 2026 Seaside Gallery by Rob Machado & Todd DiCiurcio, a special collaboration around the Pipe Master & California style icon’s best-selling groveler built in a full carbon construction. This is the board our friends always “borrow” to keep, and brings together the DNA of a fish with the performance of a shortboard. Rob says, “the Seaside is a board that will always live in my quiver, and Todd’s art on it makes it come to life that much more.” Todd shared on the collaboration, “synthesizing my painting ‘Hunt Your Way In Cut Offs; Prey For Nature’ through the Seaside Gallery evokes a sense of adventure and freedom, inviting surfers to ride not just the waves, but also the expression that enhances their experience on the bubble.”

An evolution of the Go Fish, the Seaside is built to excel in small, weak waves – the Seaside is more about ripping while the Go Fish is more about cruising.

“The Joy Equation” with Ryan Callinan Ocean & Earth Surf Accessories

“Stepping back and taking a new perspective and actually trying to be more creative on a wave has been immense. My froth levels are so high. It’s just given me so much freedom. I’m excited to just go and chase some waves without a time limit or criteria. See how good I can get in good waves, surfing the way I want to surf.” - Ryan Callinan
