A refined, high-performance groveler shaped by Dan Mann for Kevin Schulz based on the Spitfire.

Introducing the Spun Honey, a refined, high-performance groveler shaped by Dan Mann for freesurfer and firefighter, Kevin Schulz. Designed for the fast, shifting walls of beach breaks, it blends the proven DNA of Firewire’s iconic Spitfire with modern updates tuned for today’s most explosive surfers.

At its core, the Spun Honey features a diamond tail for snappy pivots, added bite, and smooth release, creating a responsive feel that thrives in punchy peaks and quick transitions. The wide point is a touch towards the tail from center but further forward to the nose than the Sweet Potato outline, which improves paddle power and wave entry, while the tapered tail keeps things sharp and agile when it’s time to lay it on rail.

Underneath, the bottom contour is a pretty aggressive double concave set within a solid single concave, similar to the Sweet Potato, with the double running further forward to the nose than most boards. This double concave bottom contour delivers speed, lift, and fluid rail-to-rail performance, benefits Dan learned from his S Boss and Boss Up shapes with a similar bottom. The five fin setup adds further versatility, allowing you to ride it as a Thruster for tight arcs, or as a Quad for down-the-line speed.

Whether you’re threading shorebreak barrels or launching into air sections, the Spun Honey delivers a fast, forgiving ride with a spicy edge — an ideal everyday board for surfers pushing performance in weak, everyday conditions.

Wave Type

The Spun Honey is a groveler that's all about pushing performance, so it's meant for small, weak, gutless waves. That said, our team has been pushing it in head-high to overhead, hollow conditions and it's been holding and working well. Whether you're groveling gutless waves, threading shorebreak barrels, or launching into air sections, the Spun Honey is the shape you'll want to keep in your trunk to have fun in any conditions.

Board Features

The Spun Honey is based on Dan's popular Spitfire model, with modern updates tuned for today's most explosive surfers. It's a short, compact groveler with the wide point a touch towards the tail from center but further forward to the nose than the Sweet Potato, and a slightly more pulled in outline than the Sweet Potato. Featuring a bullet nose and diamond tail, with a similar curve to the Baked Potato. Because the tail is such a wide planning area, Dan's idea to have a singular point off the tail be a fulcrum, so that when you tip it over the tail directs water off the singular point instead of making the tail too slidey. The rails are nice and sensitive like a high-performance shape, but the step in the rails hides or masks a lot of extra volume in the center with its flat deck. There's also lots of foam under the chest via the step in the rails, but not too much so the board still turns over well in the pocket.
