Firewire 5'5" Machadocado Surfboard – Radical Swirl
The Firewire 5'5" Machadocado Surfboard is Rob Machado’s latest ode to playful performance and everyday fun. Blending elements of a fish and a shortboard, this design draws inspiration from the shape of an avocado—round, smooth, and totally delicious. With a radical swirl colorway, this board looks as good as it rides.
Shaped for speed and ease, the Machadocado features a fuller nose for better paddling, a wide squash tail for control and release, and a deep double concave for smooth rail-to-rail transitions. It’s fast, loose, and made to shred everything from waist-high mush to punchy head-high peaks.
Built in Firewire’s Helium Construction, this board is ultra-light, ultra-durable, and super responsive underfoot. Whether you’re an intermediate looking for more speed or an advanced surfer chasing flowy lines, the Machadocado delivers a fresh take on fun in the surf.
