SD Front Foot Traction
BLOOM is a high-performance flexible foam made from algae biomass harvested from freshwater sources throughout the world. The BLOOM Foam process
Helps improve the quality of waterways by removing excess algae that harms plants, animals, and people who rely on the ecosystem for survival Recirculates fresh water back into the habitat Aids CO2 capture and sequestration. We’re literally scraping pond scum, solar drying, and pulverizing it before foaming the material to create a pad that helps re-balance the natural ecology, and reduces our dependence on non-renewable oil
SKY BROWN TRACTION
Slater Designs – Leash
The Slater Designs/Revolwe Eco-Leash incorporates a number of unique features that have dramatically reduced its carbon footprint in comparison to other leashes on the market, including a 20% recycled content urethane cord, Yulex cuff, and 100% recycled PET bottles used to make the ankle strap, rail saver webbing, and woven labels
By using Yulex we have reduced CO2 emissions by 80% compared to a conventional leash cuff, and the use of post-consumer plastic lowers energy consumption by 3,000 BTUs per leash, which qualies it for Eco-Leash certication by Sustainable Surf
SUNDAY
Sunday mornings for me start later than most mornings
It’s really a family day.... We wake up, take it slow.... Might be a surf involved before breakfast with my daughter or my son, but we’re never in a hurry to get there. We usually go to the farmer’s market before noon and stock up on produce
In the afternoon I’ll ride my bicycle down to Cardiff reef and maybe paddle out the 7-foot Sunday for a cruise. Then before sunset I’ll ride the 5’6 at Seaside if its good

SEASIDE & BEYOND
Rob Machado on the Seaside & Beyond, "I’ve really been wanting to play around with some longer fishy kind of boards for a while now... Ever since I spent some time with Skip Frye and he showed me some of his fishes in the 7 foot range It’s been on my mind. I first stretched out the Go Fish and made a 7'0". It worked great and really got my mind spinning. Then I made a 7’0" Seaside and it became one of my favorite boards in my quiver. I rode it in everything - super small days, bigger days and everything in between. It’s become a board that I will take with me everywhere I go.
It glides. It turns on a dime and most importantly, it puts a smile on my face."

SPECIAL T
Dann Mann: “Despite his preference for high performance longboarding, Taylor is an accomplished noserider so he wanted his Firewire models to include a design more suited to traditional longboarding. I’ve personally always enjoyed the stylish nature of the ‘old school’ and in particular, riding an original Phil Edwards board that my dad has
Dan continued, “After a ton of input from Taylor combined with my own experience, we developed The Special T. The rails have a soft 50/50 curve, along with a scoop nose concave and extra tail flip. We also relaxed the nose entry rocker to enhance tip riding, allowing riders maximum glide and trim with ease

TAYLOR JENSEN PRO
Taylor and Dan Mann developed the TJP with slightly more aggressive bottom contours and a touch more kick in the tail than the stock 900R. The TJP will go vertical while still maximizing the fun of cruising on a longer board.
This is Taylor Jensen's go-to board for competition, and has taken him to 1x ASP and 2x WSL World Longboard Championships.
THE GEM
The Gem is a collaboration between Dan Mann and 3x World Longboard Champion, Taylor Jensen.
Earlier this year Taylor asked Dan to consider a ‘one board in the trunk’ option for longboarders who want both trim and turns - he was essentially asking Dan for a design that would land somewhere between his TJ Pro and his TJ Everyday.
Dan’s response was an intriguing intersection of shortboard style concaves with a longboard style outline and the same fin placements that Taylor likes in all his boards.
He and Taylor decided to call this model The Gem because of how valuable it is - a one board quiver for 9 foot plus boardriders that can trim on the nose as easily as it can carve on rail.
The diamond tail isn’t a coincidence. It’s a Gem.
