Hey Rob, we have been big fans of yours for many years. I raised two sons in the water watching you surf. I hope love, joy, and lots of grace are surrounding you in this season of life! All the best to you, my friend!
for real, I was struggling dialing in my Go Fish and then I remembered it was a Machado board and I just just relaxed and laid off the gas a little and now it's my favorite board
I recently just started riding twin fins and I’m in love with the amount of fun they bring. That board definitely has my attention with the keel vibes.
I rediscovered twins a. couple years ago and LOVE them! I’m playing around with twinzers too. I’ve only used keels on Lis type fish’s in the past but want to give them a go too.
Is always a good Sunday when you get to see Rob talking about his new peojects, I got a Seaside last week and I cannot wait to ride it, base on all the reviews the boars is out of this world
@@firewiresurfboards I also want to give credit to Thomye and Noel from Surd and Shop. Their review are outstanding and thanks to all of the positive feedback provided every time I reached out to them.
Looks pretty nice actually (most boards don't these days - I got spoiled on Loehr boards when younger though). I'd like to see a thruster model personally.
I got the 6’0 and 7’0. Personally in love with the 7’0 as it has a ton of drive and very maneuverable for its size. The 6’0 I did not care for as much. Keep in mind I’m in Los Angeles and the waves have been smaller and weaker.
In the very beginning was that black and white photo of your old band sack lunch? I remember you played at soma and you rehearsed behind their breakfast café across from Cardiff. The Sunday 7’0 reminds me of a Larry Mabile
I am riding the poor mans version of this here in New Zealand - the Aloha Fun Division - and it goes bonkers in everything from 2 to 6 Ft. Mush and barrels. Super keen to give this tech a try one of these days.
Both boards are built to work in a variety of waves, but if you're really trying to dial in to junky beach breaks under shoulder high, go with the Sunday.
I am so intrigued in portions of those racks, and am lucky to have a father as a shaper. Unluckily, my wife does not share my enthusiasm on board design 🤣 Timeless, aesthetically and atomically engaging surfing. Plus hair! In Rob we trust.
ive been told to always do that because the tail is the most important part and every repair has the potential to change how it surfs while the nose barely changes anything so it is much easier to fix
Just a small question? When you store your boards on your surfboard racks; why put them on the nose of the board , instead of the tail; which would be more solid I think.
Because the tail of the board is more important than the tip of the nose. Over time the glass can crack from it standing up and nose is easier to repair and less important.
7'3 Sunday. More pivot and slide beneath your back foot in weak waves. The Sunday feels better in slightly more powerful waves for drive and turns on rail.
Yes, it does. Especially with big keel fins. But the Seaside and the Seaside and Beyond both have a higher range because of how thin the tail is in the back 12 inches of the board. If you're dialing in for really pumping surf, err on the side of Seaside and Beyond.
If you keep coming out with any more of these sick new shapes, they’re gonna have to set up a Rob Machado Hotline, for all of the surfer’s going into financial debt, trying to keep up brutha!!! “Hi, my name is .... and I’m a R.M. surfaholic.” 👋 Lol 🤙
Seriously! The next model should be called Easy Monday...after you had fun all day on Sunday and caught 100x waves... you are tired and want something easy to surf next morning.. Here it is... this board will paddle out for you 🙈
I know right. I’ve have all of his boards, besides the Midas. My wife is going to catch on soon 😂 It wasn’t really talked about much, but one of my favorite is the Creeper.
@@firewiresurfboards just picked up a 6’4 Sunday. Love the boards FireWire has put out over the years. Great collaboration with great shapers and surf legends.
Nice board! Is this one supposed to be surfed as either Twin or Single? Or 2+1 work too? Im curious because I have another 2+1 egg/mid style that works great as Single and 2+, but it doesn't work as a twinny
Most of us love the Sunday most when it's set up as a Twin Keel. But it's very versatile. Even single fin enthusiasts can find a line with it set up as a single.
@@firewiresurfboards good to know. I picked up a 7’3 and set of Machado future keels. I saw a photo you guys posted on IG of a Machado single fin on a Sunday and wondering f I should of went single due to the length.
I just heard “four fin Glazer”…. Every time I take out my Glazer I wonder what it would be like as a quad and then I put it back on the rack and take out the Seaside and forget all about the Glazer.
I literally got everything in my quiver. Absolutely love my seaside🙏👍🏼👍🏼. However I live in Florida East Coast. And nothing works the waves are horrific here I have a 10 foot glider and I’m lucky to be able to even catch waves on it that’s how Horrible our waves are😭 these things are amazing if you actually have waves. The smallest weakest day that you had in the video before is literally what we have here twice a year if that🤣
Southern NC here. We paddle out full wetsuit for thigh high days in the winter time. We take what we can get, but as long as you don't surf real waves on a surf trip too much, you got nothing compare to and stay stoked.
Just work more and save for surf trips to somewhere that it's good, especially to surf reefs and pointbreaks that'll make you lose all interest in beachbreak slop.
He calls himself an 'Anti-Swell Chaser'. Hear more from him about this on The Wire Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts by searching 'The Wire by Firewire Surfboards'.
You'll find it online this week at Surf Shops like Surf Station, Core Surfing, Boardshop UK, Locals, Real Water Sports, Catalyst, Cleanliness and more.
@@firewiresurfboards thanks! I’ve been waiting for awhile for this board. I was going to replace my seaside and beyond, but giving this a try instead. Thanks for the reply!
It always amazes me in all order of industries and activities from music to sports. Some struggle to get their hands on the most basic equipment to begin to try to learn due to a lack of monetary resources and access to those and others have much much more than they need or could even use. Guys in Africa trying to learn to surf, deal and learn with fixed broken boards and others have dozens on their garage that probably do not use. Didn't the material to make anything on Earth came from The Earth and FREELY Given? :/
I know Rob I met him back in the winter he and Kelly had their famous show down at Pipe. Rob I felt should have won World Title that year but Kelly did. It's the year they did the famous hi 5 move. Anyway's I was just about to graduate from University of Ca. San Diego. It's actually in La Jolla/UTC....I worked selling dishwaswhers, ovens stovers a/c's at the UTC sears while studying. I was so into surfing It actually hurt having to go to work if I knew I was missing it. Made grewat money at Sears 100% commision no sales no check but I killed it . One day I waw feeling very lame in my blazer working at the mall at Sears when coming up the escalater was ..NO way It's Rob...So you're not allowed to leave yoursectiohn..but I said Fuck it. I walked over anfd just layed into Rob Hey Man Wow This is really col I love the way you surf good luck in Hawaii man. Rob was looking for a game boy. Oh Thanks man do you guys sell game boys?

@@firewiresurfboards Hey that means a lot. It's great that you take time to get back w people! PS Have you ever had honey on egg's? Western Australia Rob #1!!!!
Hey Rob, we have been big fans of yours for many years. I raised two sons in the water watching you surf. I hope love, joy, and lots of grace are surrounding you in this season of life! All the best to you, my friend!
his surfing is so radically chill lol
Highly relaxing.
for real, I was struggling dialing in my Go Fish and then I remembered it was a Machado board and I just just relaxed and laid off the gas a little and now it's my favorite board
drawing lines and rail turns . Smooth and gracefull
Listening to Rob talk makes me feel like I just did an hour of meditation.
He should run surf and meditation retreats for the rest of us.
@@firewiresurfboards can you custom order the Sunday morning yet or will it be available for custom later own
He should start painting happy trees, happy clouds, and happy mountains
Best comment.
So smooth. I like the way you put your weight on the stern to stay in the pocket. Really nice watching and learning from your videos.....
Good eye. This is part of why he likes the twin keel setup. It helps him get that slide and stall to stay in the pocket.
Flawless your colecction rob. jeje
Thanks for sharing

I recently just started riding twin fins and I’m in love with the amount of fun they bring. That board definitely has my attention with the keel vibes.
Most of us here prefer this shape as a keel too. But it also goes great as a single fin, or a 2 + 1.
I rediscovered twins a. couple years ago and LOVE them! I’m playing around with twinzers too. I’ve only used keels on Lis type fish’s in the past but want to give them a go too.

It is. All of us really love it. What shop did you find it at?
@@firewiresurfboards Since I live in Puerto Rico, I got mine from Tres Palmas surf shop in San Juan

Picking mine up today!
You're stoked! Which Shop are you grabbing it from?
@@firewiresurfboards picked it up from Clairemont surf. 7’3 with future fins .
awesome how they look at each other, thats what we all want!
cleanest shaping bay Ive ever seen and Ive seen a few ,,
When will they be up on your site and can you do a video showing the difference between the smaller Sundays and the Glazers?
Info from Rob on Sunday vs. Glazer is coming soon.
I got the 6’0 and 7’0. Personally in love with the 7’0 as it has a ton of drive and very maneuverable for its size. The 6’0 I did not care for as much. Keep in mind I’m in Los Angeles and the waves have been smaller and weaker.
What's your weight though?
@@DannyCruzCreations 160 lbs
Cool stuff! Can't wait to grab one for a spin on Sunday🤘🏼
😊
@@firewiresurfboards Did Rob ride the 7’0” stock dims in Hellium in the video at Cardiff?
@@SkipperSurfReview is this going to be your seaside and beyond replacement?
@@charlesrooke3946 nope but seeing Rob on it, I feel like it will overlap most of my boards😂 I hope I will get mine next week to start enjoying it😜
@@SkipperSurfReview nice... what size are you getting?
In the very beginning was that black and white photo of your old band sack lunch? I remember you played at soma and you rehearsed behind their breakfast café across from Cardiff. The Sunday 7’0 reminds me of a Larry Mabile
Hey Rob! it’s like a gathering of tribes man!
Any work ever get done in that bay? Spotless...
Rob's friend who manages the upkeep of the bay and the R and D garage is a neat freak.
I am riding the poor mans version of this here in New Zealand - the Aloha Fun Division - and it goes bonkers in everything from 2 to 6 Ft. Mush and barrels. Super keen to give this tech a try one of these days.
Still the cool surfer nice one thx
looks like a fun board
Will you make the Sunday in timbertek technology?
Had my first session on the Sunday today and it was wild
What shop did you find it at? Where did you surf?
@@firewiresurfboards Central Coast Surfboards in San Luis Obispo! I surf in Pismo Beach. I’ve only ridden with a single fin so far.
What fin did you use?
@@charleshawk6668 I have a machado 7.5 single fin setup
What's up with the skis sittin' in the right hand corner of the shaping bay?
“Hey buddy where you goin?”
*speedy feet
What’s better for 1-5 foot surf, this or the seaside and beyond? Mainly junky beach breaks.
Both boards are built to work in a variety of waves, but if you're really trying to dial in to junky beach breaks under shoulder high, go with the Sunday.
I am so intrigued in portions of those racks, and am lucky to have a father as a shaper. Unluckily, my wife does not share my enthusiasm on board design 🤣
Timeless, aesthetically and atomically engaging surfing. Plus hair!
In Rob we trust.
Is it normal to store boards nose down? Never seen that before...
ive been told to always do that because the tail is the most important part and every repair has the potential to change how it surfs while the nose barely changes anything so it is much easier to fix
Inspirational.
Glazer & Beyond
just more durable perhaps.. we will see :)
The Style Master.
where can i find that experimentation alaia board?

Because the tail of the board is more important than the tip of the nose. Over time the glass can crack from it standing up and nose is easier to repair and less important.
@@c_dubbzz6127 Thanks for the tip... ;)
It's like the scene in Spinal Tap. These boards go to eleven.
Future fins box on a FireWire?! wow!
is the sunday good for an advanced beginner ? and which size? Im 5'6 135. thanks
How do these boards perform in the smaller dimensions?? Thinking of buying a 5’9. For an easy to paddle fun little grovel board.
I love rob❤❤❤❤❤❤
Has Stephanie Gilmore and Rob been in a surf film yet? If not, who can make that happen?
Which board would be more manuevarable on average East Coast US waves: 7'4" Seaside and Beynd or 7'3" Sunday? thanks!
7'3 Sunday. More pivot and slide beneath your back foot in weak waves. The Sunday feels better in slightly more powerful waves for drive and turns on rail.
Does it hold well in head + surf? Does it have HP elements like seaside?
Yes, it does. Especially with big keel fins. But the Seaside and the Seaside and Beyond both have a higher range because of how thin the tail is in the back 12 inches of the board. If you're dialing in for really pumping surf, err on the side of Seaside and Beyond.

It wasn’t really talked about much, but one of my favorite is the Creeper.
Drive through Encinitas, there is a giant picture of him on a bank, so he may start giving out loans to buy his boards ; )
@@gregn8206 I’d definitely apply for Rob Machado Credit Card if it had 10% cash back on Firewire surfboards😁
What're the main differences between the Glazer and the Sunday?? Noticed the smaller sunday looks real similar to the glazer.
Rob went into detail about this on The Wire Podcast. Find it wherever you listen to podcasts by searching 'The Wire by Firewire Surfboards'.
This is why I build boards for myself.
Lol why
Where can I buy!? I been waiting months lol.
It's landing at surf shops everywhere this week.
Oh shoot, now looking at this video again, I see the Mashup!
Good eye! The version he has on the rack in this video is the second to last version before he and Dan finalized the Mashup.
@@firewiresurfboards just picked up a 6’4 Sunday. Love the boards FireWire has put out over the years. Great collaboration with great shapers and surf legends.

It'd be freaking cool if I actually see this guy at Cardiff.
He can see you. 😉 His house has a clear view of it.
I haven’t seen him for a long time. I haven’t t seen his van around town either. Maybe he went somewhere to escape the covid crazy.
