The Firewire Too Fish 5'9 – Helium Construction is a refined take on the classic twin fin fish, shaped by Rob Machado for down-the-line speed, effortless flow, and smooth rail transitions. Built using Firewire’s lightweight and responsive Helium Technology, this board offers a lively flex pattern, increased durability, and enhanced maneuverability for everyday surf conditions.
The Too Fish features a full outline, flat rocker, and wide swallow tail—ideal for small to medium waves. The Futures twin fin setup (fins not included) creates a fast, loose, and skatey ride with just the right amount of control. At 34.6 liters, the 5'9 Too Fish packs in extra foam for easy paddling while maintaining the high-performance responsiveness you expect from a Machado shape.
Design: Wide nose, deep swallow tail, and subtle concaves for speed and control
Whether you're groveling summer waves or carving up clean point break lines, the Firewire Too Fish 5'9 – Helium brings the fun with speed, style, and precision performance.
Recommended Fins:
Futures Machado Twin Fins
Futures K2 Keel for smooth drive
