The Firewire 5'4" Machadocado Surfboard is a fast and fluid hybrid designed by Rob Machado, shaped for everyday fun with a twist of innovation. Inspired by the smooth curves of an avocado, this board blends the paddle power and glide of a fish with the responsiveness and control of a performance shortboard. Whether you’re trimming through soft sections or throwing quick, snappy turns, the Machadocado is your go-to for all-around fun.
Built using Helium construction, the board features an ultralight EPS core, durable composite skins, and parabolic wood rails for a lively, responsive ride. The deep double concave paired with a vee off the tail keeps things fast and fluid, while the wide squash tail and fuller nose help you paddle with ease and stay playful in smaller conditions.
