The Firewire Timbertek Gem Is The Exciting Result Of A Collaboration Between Master Shaper And Aqua-Dynamics Wizard Dan Mann And 2 Times World Longboard Champion Taylor Jenson.
Taylor Approached Dan Looking For A Go-To Board For Longboarders Looking For Some Classic Trim Along With The Ability To Turn Off The Tail And Throw A Little Spray, Something That Would Sit Between His Tj Pro And The Tj Everyday Models.
What Dan Presented To Taylor Was A Typically Unique Board With Some Exciting Shortboard Attributes; A Pretty Regular Longboard Outline, Some Performance Shortboard Concaves And Taylor’S Regular Fin Placements.
The Board Needed A Name And The Guys Arrived At The “Gem”, An Indication Of How Valuable A One Board Quiver Is To Longboarders, Especially Those Who Travel!
The Precious Gem Trims And Nose-Rides Like A Log And Can Turn From The Diamond (Pun Intended) Tail Like A Truly Performance Longboard.
Firewire’S Timbertek Construction Combines A Lightweight Eps Core With Sustainably-Grown Wood Deck Skins, Along With Firewire’S Proven Parabolic Rail Construction Giving Them An Addictive ‘Pop’ And Return. Finished With A Hot Coat Of Entropy Bio-Resin, Creating An Extremely Lightweight And Durable Surfboard With All Of The High Performance Flex Traits Of Firewire’S Existing Technologies. Realistically The Gem Longboard Was Never Going To Be Made In Any Other Construction, The Beautiful Paulownia Wood Laminates Along With It’S Significantly Reduced Carbon Footprint Add The Finishing Touch To What Is Destined To Be Dan Mann And Taylor Jenson Classic.
