Firewire Sweet Potato Helium Surfboard in White
Think small-wave groveler: fast, fun, and built for effortless takeoffs and buttery floaters. The Sweet Potato is likely the widest, flattest, and thickest small-wave surfboard you'll ever ride. While undeniably high-performance, it's every bit a groveler—designed for maximum enjoyment in poor wave conditions. This is the board you‚'ll want to keep in your trunk at all times The updated Sweet Potato features a refined swallowtail design, the latest evolution of Mannkine's groundbreaking small-wave board. It turns waves that would typically demand a longboard—or no ride at all—into playful, rip-worthy opportunities. Packed with generous volume in a compact, agile frame, it delivers a loose, drive-heavy feel. The signature deep double-barrel concave effectively "splits" the board when on edge, making it feel significantly narrower during turns. Tweaks to the bottom contours near the fins, paired with the new tail outline, enhance maneuverability for tighter pocket turns while maintaining the speed and projection needed to thrive in weak, gutless surf.
