The Gem Diamond - Thunderbolt Red

Firewires The Gem is a collaboration between Dan Mann and 3X World Longboard Champion Taylor Jensen. Names The Gem because of how valuable it is - a one board quiver for 9 foot plus board riders that can trim on the nose as easily as it can carve on the rail. The diamond tail isn’t a coincidence. It’s a Gem! Earlier this year Taylor asked Dan to consider a ‘one board in the trunk’ option for longboarders who want both trim and turns; he was essentially asking Dan for a design that would land somewhere between his TJPro and his TJEveryday. Dan’s response was an intriguing intersection of shortboard style concaves with a longboard style outline and the same fin placements that Taylor likes in all his boards.
