Firewire FRK Plus - Ibolic 2024

Description

Dan Mann's FRK+ is a classic squash tail high-performance shortboard, an enhanced version of the FRK for everyday conditions.

The FRK+ is meant to be ridden slightly shorter than the original FRK round tail. It has all the on-wave benefits of the original FRK with a touch more release through turns that comes from the squash tail and minor adjustments to how the concaves and fin placements relate to the increased surface area of the squash when compared to a round tail.

The feedback on this shape has been that it has a super quick rail-to-rail responsiveness mixed with extremely good drive and release. Most intermediate and above surfers will appreciate the FRK+ for the way it gets out of your way to the point that you don’t even notice it's there - it feels like the most high performance expression of your intentions possible.
