The Firewire Sweet Potato 5'4 is Dan Mann's high-performance groveler and one of the most fun boards you can own. Absurdly wide, flat, and thick for its length, the Sweet Potato packs 34.6 liters into a small package that converts genuinely terrible surf into rippable, energized potential. Updated with a swallowtail and refined bottom contours through the fins, this is the board that should never leave your trunk when the forecast looks hopeless.

• Shape: High-volume groveler outline, exceptionally wide, flat, and thick for maximum float and speed generation in weak, gutless surf where narrower boards go nowhere.
• Tail: Swallowtail adds maneuverability for tighter pocket turns without sacrificing the small wave speed and drive the Sweet Potato is famous for.
• Bottom Contour: Deep double barrel concave that splits the board when tipped on rail, making the board feel dramatically narrower and more driven than its actual width suggests.
• Volume: 34.6 liters at 5'4, enabling no-paddle takeoffs, buttery floaters, and performance in surf most boards refuse to engage with.
• Construction: Firewire Helium lightweight EPS/epoxy construction adds buoyancy and liveliness in weak, slow-moving surf conditions where every advantage matters.
• Ideal For: Any surfer who wants maximum fun in genuinely bad waves. The ultimate small wave specialist and trunk board for uninspiring conditions.

Sizing: The 5'4 / 34.6L suits surfers from approximately 130 to 175 lbs as a dedicated groveler. Heavier surfers or those wanting more float should size up; lighter surfers in slightly better surf may prefer a smaller size.

Care: Rinse with fresh water after every session. Store away from direct sunlight and heat to prevent delamination. Repair dings promptly to maintain waterproof integrity.
