Board Cage Update | NEW Shop, NEW Firewires

Joe Walsh • February 20, 2020

Our board cage just got a serious face lift. Prior to our most recent shipment, we had about 250 boards in our board cage. Since the opening of our new surf shop across from El Vaquero, we’ve received a fresh shipment of 50 new boards, 19 of which are brand new, epoxy Firewires. Haven’t heard of Firewire you say? They are basically the surfboard company of the future. Since their inception, Firewire has been doing things differently by developing their own unique materials and construction techniques. Whether it’s the Linear Flex Technology, or thier latest developments like their ultra-light Helium construction, Firewire remains dedicated to pushing the boundaries of surfboard design. Some of their team riders include Kelly Slater, Rob Machado, Robert “Wingnut” Weaver, Timmy Reyes, Sierra Kerr,  and more.

Here is a breakdown of some of the new Firewires you’ll find in our board cage that are available to all surf program guests.

Witch’s Rock, the wave from which we derive our namesake, popularized by The Endless Summer II most definitely lives up to the hype.
