Firewire 8'0" Special T Longboard Surfboard

The Firewire 8'0" Special T Longboard Surfboard is a timeless, traditional-style log shaped by world champion Taylor Jensen. Designed to deliver pure glide, effortless trim, and long, silky smooth nose rides, the Special T is Firewire’s most classic single-fin-inspired model. Its clean lines, wide nose, and ultra-stable platform make it a dream board for stylish footwork and flowy longboarding in small to medium surf.

Key Features

  • Classic Logs-Only Design: The Special T prioritizes traditional longboard glide with a wide nose, gentle rocker, and a stable trim-friendly outline perfect for nose riding.
  • Smooth, Straight Outline: Designed for long, clean lines, flowy turns, and extended tip time, offering a very predictable and smooth ride.
  • Refined Rails: Soft forward rails for stability transitioning into sharper rails through the tail for clean, controlled turns.
  • Futures 2+1 Setup: Traditional single-fin feel with the option to add sidebites for increased control and drive. Fins not included.
  • Ideal for Smaller Surf: Excels in knee- to chest-high waves where glide, style, and effortless trimming are the focus.

Why Choose the Special T?

The Firewire 8'0" Special T is built for surfers who want the cleanest, most traditional longboard feel possible—without going to a full 9'0"+ log. Its 56.4 liters of volume offer strong paddle power and stability while still feeling nimble and manageable thanks to its shorter length. Whether you're practicing cross-steps, locking into classic nose rides, or simply enjoying smooth trimming across soft waves, the Special T remains a rider favorite for pure, stylish longboarding.
