FIREWIRE 9" SINGLE FIN | SINGLE FIN FOR LONGBOARD AND MIDLENGTH

The most versatile single fin on the market: hold, drive, and control for your Firewire longboard or midlength

Some fins do one thing well. The Firewire 9" Single Fin is designed to do everything well. A tip-to-tail template built to dominate any condition: from ankle-high waves on your 10' noserider to barrels with the TJ Mid. If you have a Firewire longboard or midlength, this is the fin that was missing.

WHY THIS FIN MAKES A DIFFERENCE

The Firewire Single Fin was born from a clear principle: a fin shouldn't force you to choose between hold and freedom, between drive and sensitivity. The 9-inch template balances the four pillars of longboard surfing exceptionally well:

• Hold — Provides stability and confidence on the rail, essential for noseriding and executing the cleanest trims up the face.
• Drive — The base geometry encourages speed generation on wave drops without sacrificing responsiveness in turns.
• Release — Allows for natural tail release when you're looking for a change of direction or want to pivot from the pocket.
• Control — The combination of the template's height and base offers a predictable and balanced response across a wide range of conditions and boards.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

• Size — 9 inches.
• Template — Versatile; designed for single fin setups on longboards and midlengths.
• Box System — US Box (to be confirmed with distributor).
• Compatibility — All Firewire Surfboards longboard and midlength models (noserider, TJ Mid, Special T, Sprout, Gem, Hull Rider, and similar).
• Sizing Guide — Select the size in inches that most closely matches your board length in feet.
• Units — Individual fin (1 fin per unit).

EXPERT ADVICE

To get the most out of your Firewire Single Fin, pay attention to its position within the fin box. Placing it further back adds stability and facilitates noseriding; shifting it forward loosens the tail and makes turns snappier. A half-centimeter adjustment can completely change how the board feels. Try different positions depending on wave size and the style you want to develop.

FIREWIRE WARRANTY — THE FUTURE UNDER YOUR FEET

Firewire Surfboards was born in 1981 in Western Australia under the name NEV Surfboards and evolved into one of the most innovative and influential brands in the global surf industry. Its philosophy is based on three pillars: high performance, maximum durability, and a genuine commitment to the environment.

Firewire holds the official Sustainable Surf EcoBoard label for its six distinct constructions: Helium, I-Bolic, TimberTek, Volcanic, ProFlex, and FST. Their Volcanic technology uses basalt fibers extracted from volcanic rock, achieving performance similar to carbon fiber with a significantly lower environmental impact. In their other constructions, the brand incorporates recycled EPS foam, bio-resins, and sustainably sourced wood.

Firewire works hand-in-hand with some of the most influential shapers and surfers in the world: Kelly Slater (Slater Designs), Rob Machado, Dan Mann, Daniel "Tomo" Thomson, Taylor Jensen, and CJ Nelson, among others. The result is products that combine elite research with a sustainable vision for the future.

Core Surfing Shop is an official distributor of Firewire Surfboards in Spain. All fins include the official manufacturer's warranty and direct after-sales support in Spanish.

USE AND CARE

• Insert the fin into the US Box and tighten the screw with the included key until firm, being careful not to overtighten and damage the box.
• Check the screw before each session: the movement of the board in the water can loosen it slightly.
• Rinse the fin with fresh water after each session in the ocean to remove salt and sand residue.
• Store out of direct sunlight and extreme heat to preserve the material's integrity.
• If you detect cracks, warping, or unusual impact marks, consult our team before continuing to use it.

SIZING GUIDE

The Firewire golden rule: choose the fin size in inches that most closely matches your board length in feet. For boards with a 2+1 setup, the 6.5" and 7.2" sizes can also be combined with 4" side bites.
