Rob Machado tested out his new Glazer surfboard design at Kelly’s Wave. In a podcast with Firewire’s Chris Grow, Rob talks about what it’s like to take a surf trip to Lemoore and how the Glazer design came to be.

The Glazer is modeled off Rob’s Biscuit design from 10 years ago with several modifications. The graceful goofyfoot reshaped the rails, updated the concave, foil and rocker.

“The Glazer is a high volume thruster that’s been designed over the past 10 years to be one of the most versatile shapes ever released in Firewire’s line,” says Firewire.

Production boards are made with EPS foam, epoxy bio resins, and durable deck skins – all creating a surfboard with an approximate 30% reduction in its carbon footprint when compared to traditional materials.
