Firewire Singleton Single Fin (9'4-9'8) Helium 2 Futures

The Singleton is for the longboarder who wants a pure noseriding board that still surfs off the tail when the wave asks for it.

• The traditional noserider who wants classic hang tens and cross-stepping without sacrificing the ability to throw a real turn
• The progressive longboarder looking to step into single-fin territory without losing the responsiveness they get from their performance boards
• The experienced logger frustrated with heavy, wooden traditional singles who wants the same glide in a lighter, livelier package
• The competitive longboarder who needs a board that scores under WSL criteria — style, trim, tip time, and commitment on turns
• The longboarder building toward a two-board quiver who wants a dedicated noserider that can also handle everyday sessions

This is the board for surfers who refuse to choose between classic style and modern feel.

The Singleton is built for the soft, clean, lined-up days where longboarding belongs — peeling waist-high walls, fat shoulder-high sections, and the mellow everyday surf that rewards patience and footwork over power. Its wide single concave nose and stable outline let it lock into trim early and hold through flatter sections most shortboards can't make, and the tucked hard edge in the tail lets it handle steeper takeoffs and sharper cutbacks when the surf has more size. Hawaii's long, glassy mornings and the softer lined-up days that show up between swells cover the exact conditions this board was designed for — and it still has enough performance built in to handle the occasional bigger day without getting shut down.

The Singleton's shape is the result of Stu Kenson and Taylor Jensen working through multiple prototypes to find the sweet spot between a traditional log and a performance longboard. The outline has a wide forward point that gives it stability for tip riding, a wide single concave running through the nose that holds the board in the pocket during noserides, and a square tail with a tucked hard edge that sharpens release and drives the board through turns. The bottom flows from that single concave in the nose to a gentle roll through the middle and then flattens out through the tail, which keeps water moving down the rail and makes the board feel smooth and predictable rail-to-rail. Rail edges were shaped to limit the sliding-out that kills hang fives and hang tens on less-refined noseriders.

Helium2: A stringerless 1.0 lb EPS foam core with flex controlled by Paulownia and balsa wood rails running the full length of the board, combined with a 3mm aerospace composite deck skin. Light, lively, and responsive, with flex that loads up through turns and springs back out of them.

Single-fin.
