Product Info

Dan Mann and Taylor Jensen's traditional longboard model, taking cues from the 'old school.' Traditionalists rejoice because the Taylor Jensen Series Special T Helium Surfboard is the modern answer to your classic shape needs. Keeping with a traditional outline, the Special T tightens here and pinches there creating a smooth sailing glider that can be ridden all over the wave. Despite his preference for high performance longboarding, Taylor is an accomplished noserider so he wanted his Firewire models to include a design more suited to traditional longboarding.

Product Construction

Helium Core Technology
A stringerless EPS core with flex controlled at the rails made from Paulownia and Balsa wood - this construction is light and lively underfoot, and excellent at generating speed in everyday waves.

Additional Info

Dann Mann on the Special T, “despite his preference for high performance longboarding, Taylor is an accomplished noserider so he wanted his Firewire models to include a design more suited to traditional longboarding. I’ve personally always enjoyed the stylish nature of the ‘old school’ and in particular, riding an original Phil Edwards board that my dad has."

Dan continued, “After a ton of input from Taylor combined with my own experience, we developed The Special T. The rails have a soft 50/50 curve, along with a scoop nose concave and extra tail flip. We also relaxed the nose entry rocker to enhance tip riding, allowing riders maximum glide and trim with ease."

Wave Type
This is Taylor Jensen and Dan Mann’s longboard shape for California beach breaks and softer waves. It is a great balance of ease-of-wave-catching and ease-of-ride, that offers a traditional feel with more performance underfoot. “Traditional longboarding is smooth, it’s about trim, style and an elegant balance of flow, and the Special T does that for me.” – Taylor Jensen

Board Features
The Special T is a traditionally outlined rounded pintail longboard shape. The flat rocker makes it super easy to catch waves and super stable. The rounded pintail helps with hold in the pocket and the wide nose offers tons of stability up at the tip. This is the shape 3x World Longboard Champion Taylor Jensen was riding when he won the 2022 Duct Tape Invitational.

Helium Core Technology

Firewire Product Construction Helium Core Technology

This is your ideal technology choice for generating speed in weak, everyday waves. The Firewire Helium technology is a stringerless 1.0 lb EPS foam core with flex controlled with rails made from Paulownia and Balsa wood, running the complete length from nose to tail, combined with a 3mm proprietary aerospace composite deck skin.

The wood rails enable a lively flex in the rail that gives a loaded-up, spring-back feeling, and the deck skins make your board feel this way for a long time.

Helium deck skins are beneficial for both durability and performance - and have a memory that will rebound back to form after being compressed, making it very responsive in addition to keeping your deck surface pristine for many years.

Helium Performance
Ideal for generating speed in weak, everyday waves - this is your choice if you want unmatched response, lightweight and durability. Helium has a lively, responsive flex underfoot, and surfs quickly and explosively when creating tight angles.
