Firewire Surfboards launches Hybrid Rapidfire

RapidFIRE is a hybrid technology, combining the carbon rod suspension of DIRECT DRIVE
with the SPRINGER technology of the Taj Pro Model. 
 
Developed in conjunction with Surfboard Suspension Systems (SSS), RapidFIRE’s core is
shaped from 2lb fused EPS foam and the top deck Bamboo SPRINGER is applied using
Firewire’s proven sandwich construction. 
 
The interior carbon rods work in tandem with the top deck Bamboo Springer to optimize
flex patterns, maximizing speed and drive through turns, while the Bamboo Springer also
creates additional compression strength against denting.  
 
The overall effect is a highly tuned, durable surfboard with increased performance over
traditional surfboard constructions. With an MSRP of $595.00, RapidFIRE also offers a great
price-to-value equation for surfers. 
 
So whether you prefer the pinnacle technology of Direct Drive, the Parabolic Balsa rail
performance of Future Shapes Technology (FST), or the hybrid technology of RapidFIRE,
Firewire continues to define the ‘Future of Shape’.
 
RapidFIRE technology will be offered in various shapes and will deliver in Jan 2009.
