About
Founded in 2006 by Nev Hyman, Firewire Surfboards was the first global surfboard manufacturer to introduce 100% EPS and epoxy construction, setting a new standard for performance and sustainability in the industry. Collaborating with world class shapers like Kelly Slater, Rob Machado, and Daniel Tomo Thompson, Firewire is dedicated to enhancing the surfing experience through sustainable innovation. They are the only global surfboard manufacturer to build 100% of their boards within Sustainable Surf's ECOBOARD Standard, representing roughly a 30% reduction in carbon footprint per board compared to traditionally made surfboards.
