FIREWIRE SEASIDE AND BEYOND - ROB MACHADO 

Ability: Beginner - Expert

Bottom Contours: Single / Double

Rails: Medium

Ideal Wave Size: 1-5ft

Today the Seaside and Beyond is something Rob calls “an extended version of the fun you’ve had already” on the Helium Seaside, but to us it’s more than fun, it’s a feeling; the sensation of speed on rail enhanced by an uncommon placement of quad boxes, inside of an often overlooked area of board design, what Rob calls “that world between a shortboard and a mid length.“ Glide and paddle - Turns on a dime, 

In the words of RM

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 footer.  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 every where I go.

It glides.  It turns on a dime and most importantly… it puts a smile on my face
