Firewire describes it as the most versatile hybrid in Machado's quiver, combining accessible paddle power and speed with a shape intended to remain responsive underfoot.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003cp\u003eThe generous width gives the Machadocado plenty of planing area, making it an interesting option for surfers who want easy speed and useful volume without moving to a much longer board.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003ch2\u003eCompact 5'8 with 34.4 Liters\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n  \u003cp\u003eThis board measures 5'8\" x 21 1\/2\" x 2 1\/2\" with 34.4 liters of volume. Firewire's current size chart confirms these as the standard dimensions for the 5'8 Machadocado.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003cp\u003eThe combination of a compact 5'8 length, 21 1\/2-inch width, and 34.4 liters gives this board a substantial amount of foam relative to its length. That can help with paddling and speed generation while keeping the board compact underfoot.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003ch2\u003eVersatile 3-Fin Configuration\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n  \u003cp\u003eThe Machadocado uses three fin boxes, but it is not limited to being ridden as a conventional thruster. Firewire designed the configuration so the board can be experimented with as a twin, twin plus trailer, or thruster depending on the fins used and the feel you're looking for.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003cp\u003eThis individual board is equipped with Futures fin boxes. Unlike many of our used boards, fins are included with this one.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003ch2\u003eDesigned by Rob Machado\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n  \u003cp\u003eRob Machado developed the Machadocado as a versatile hybrid with an unusually wide outline relative to its length. The shape is designed to provide the speed and easy-going characteristics associated with wider hybrid boards while still allowing for controlled, responsive turns.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003ch2\u003eUsed Surfboard Condition\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n  \u003cp\u003eRider Shack has inspected this used Machadocado and given it a 5 out of 5 used-board rating. It is still a pre-owned surfboard, so review the product photos for the closest look at the cosmetic condition of this individual board.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003ch2\u003eWho Is the Machadocado For?\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n  \u003cp\u003eThe Machadocado is worth considering for surfers looking for a wide, compact hybrid with plenty of usable volume and multiple fin options. It can bridge the space between a dedicated groveler and a more conventional shortboard, making it an appealing choice when easy speed and versatility are priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003cp\u003eSurfboard sizing depends on ability, fitness, preferred waves, and the performance you're looking for. The 34.4-liter volume is a useful comparison point, but volume alone should not determine whether this is the right size for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003ch3\u003eWhat are the dimensions of this Firewire Machadocado?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n  \u003cp\u003eThis used 5'8 Machadocado measures 5'8\" x 21 1\/2\" x 2 1\/2\" with 34.4 liters of volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003ch3\u003eWho designed the Machadocado?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n  \u003cp\u003eThe Machadocado was designed by Rob Machado and is part of his Firewire surfboard lineup.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n  \u003ch3\u003eDoes this Machadocado include fins?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n  \u003cp\u003eYes.
