CYMATIC DESCRIPTION

Kelly Slater, the legendary surfer, has once again made waves in the surfing world with his latest creation - the Cymatic surfboard. This innovative board, designed in collaboration with renowned shaper Daniel "Tomo" Thomson, combines the best elements of Slater's previous models, the Sci-Fi and Omni, while introducing entirely new features that elevate high-performance surfing to new heights.

The Cymatic Model: A Blend of Innovation and Versatility

The Cymatic surfboard is a true testament to Slater's commitment to pushing the boundaries of surfboard design. It features an increased rocker throughout the board, especially in the tail, providing unparalleled control in larger waves and a platform for dynamic maneuvers. 


The Cymatic is a cutting-edge, ultra-high-performance surfboard that combines elements from the Sci-Fi and Omni models, resulting in a versatile and innovative design. This board is known for its exceptional speed, maneuverability, and ease of use in various wave conditions.

The Ibolic Core Technology

Firewire Surfboards' I-Bolic core technology is a sophisticated blend of rigidity and dynamic flex, drawing from the best attributes of their previous Linear Flex Technology (LFT) and the popular Helium technology. The I-Bolic core is engineered to provide a solid, reliable feel under the feet, ensuring exceptional resistance to breaking. The integration of high-density foam parabolic rails contributes to the board's ability to flex and snap back during turns, offering surfers a highly responsive ride.

Performance Attributes of I-Bolic Core Technology

  • Stiffness and Flexibility: The I-Bolic core mirrors the stiffness of Firewire's older LFT while infusing the lively flex and rebound characteristics of the widely acclaimed Helium technology. This combination ensures a stable platform with the added benefit of energetic flex during maneuvers.
  • Firmness and Break Strength: The central I-beam construction within the core guarantees a firm stance for the surfer and provides exceptional break strength, making it a robust choice for various surfing conditions.
  • Controlled Flex and Recoil: The high-density foam parabolic rails are designed to manage the board's flex, allowing for a controlled recoil effect that enhances the surfing experience through turns.

Construction Details of I-Bolic Core Technology

  • Core Composition: The core of the I-Bolic technology surfboards is composed of a 1.5 lb EPS foam, reinforced with an 18mm high-density foam stringer. This stringer runs through the core of the board, providing a strong backbone
  • Flex Control: The board's flex is modulated by 16mm high-density foam parabolic rails, while a 5mm high-density foam springer on the bottom adds another layer of control and response
  • Lamination Process: The deck of the I-Bolic surfboards features a 3mm high-density composite skin, which is sandwiched between two layers of 4 oz E fiberglass cloth. The bottom is also protected with a double layer of 4 oz E fiberglass, ensuring durability and a smooth finish.

Lamination Compatibility with I-Bolic Cores

Versatile Pairing: I-Bolic cores are compatible with various lamination processes, including the standard fiberglass lamination, the AWT (Artificial Wave Technology) fiberglass lamination, and the eco-conscious Volcanic lamination. This versatility allows for a range of surfboard constructions to suit different preferences and wave conditions

Firewire Surfboards with Ibolic Technology and Volcanic Lamination

Firewire has released surfboards that combine the Ibolic core technology with Volcanic lamination, offering surfers the best of both worlds. These boards are designed to hold volume and rail throughout, accelerate in small waves, and provide a quicker response and stronger durability. They are suitable for a variety of wave conditions and are a versatile choice for surfers looking for high-quality and sustainable surfboard

Featured Surfboards:

Cymatic: The Cymatic is a cutting-edge, ultra-high-performance surfboard that combines elements from the Sci-Fi and Omni models, resulting in a versatile and innovative design. This board is known for its exceptional speed, maneuverability, and ease of use in various wave conditions.

Key Features

  • A fuller template and rounded nose
  • Increased overall rocker and exaggerated tail kick
  • A five-fin setup
  • Ibolic Volcanic Technology

Benefits

A fuller template and rounded nose that increase the volume of the board. This means that you can ride the board shorter than your standard shortboard, which makes it easier to control and turn.

An increased overall rocker and exaggerated tail kick that give the board a tighter turning radius. This means that you can surf more aggressively and perform sharper turns in larger waves.

A five-fin setup that allows you to choose between FCS II or Futures fins. This means that you can customize the board to suit your style and the conditions of the waves.

CYMATIC FAQS

Entry Rocker and Wave Compatibility

The Omni features a higher entry rocker, which makes it suitable for steeper, more hollow waves. This design allows for smooth entry and enhanced performance in challenging conditions.

On the other hand, the Cymatic sports a lower entry rocker, making it faster and more efficient in smaller, flatter waves.

Tail Design and Surfing Style

Round Tail: This design helps maintain speed through turns and excels in carving. However, it tends to struggle with vertical maneuvers due to the nature of the round tail, which favors rounded turns.

Back-Footed Surfing: The Omni is tailored for surfers who prefer to drive off the back foot, making it a bit more demanding to surf.

Double Bat Tail: The double Bat Tail with its Flyer (Wing) provides a great pivot point, enabling quick turns and vertical moves in the pocket. This tail design allows water to break free from the rail, ensuring agility and response.

User-Friendly: The Cymatic offers a broader sweet spot on the tail, enhancing ease of use. This makes it more versatile and forgiving, accommodating precise surfing even when the surfer's foot placement varies.

Speed and Versatility

The Cymatic outshines the Omni in terms of speed and versatility. Its design elements, such as the double Bat Tail and lower entry rocker, contribute to quicker acceleration and better performance in a range of wave conditions. In contrast, the Omni is more specialized, excelling in specific types of waves but requiring more skill and precision from the surfer.

The Omni is best suited for experienced surfers seeking to tackle steeper, hollow waves with precision and carving ability. It demands a more back-footed style and rewards those who can meet its challenges. Conversely, the Cymatic offers greater speed, versatility, and user-friendly performance, making it ideal for a broader range of conditions and surfers who prefer a more forgiving ride.

The entry rocker of the Cymatic plays a crucial role in its performance, especially in smaller waves. By having less entry rocker, the Cymatic can plane more efficiently, allowing for quicker acceleration and improved speed. This feature enhances its ability to generate momentum, making it superior in smaller, flatter waves where maintaining speed is essential. Additionally, the increased surface area in the tail aids in stability and turn responsiveness, further elevating its versatility in varied wave conditions.

The Cymatic surfboard model is recommended for surfers who have reached an intermediate to advanced skill level and are interested in adding a distinct, high-performance board to their collection.

The Cymatic model reflects Tomo's shaping style and innovation by incorporating unique features and design aspects that showcase his creativity and ability to blend different board models to create a high-performance surfboard known for its versatility and advanced design concepts.

The double bat tail on the Cymatic model is a feature borrowed from the Sci-Fi model, which has contributed to the popularity of the Sci-Fi due to its design and performance characteristics.

The Cymatic model integrates elements from the Sci-Fi and Omni models, such as the double bat tail from the Sci-Fi and a fuller template similar to the Omni, resulting in a unique design that blends the best of both boards.

The Cymatic model is described as a hybrid of the Sci-Fi and Omni models, combining features from both boards to create an avant-garde, ultra high-performance machine.
