The Firewire Taylor Jensen Pro Mid is a performance-oriented mid-length designed to offer versatility and fun across a wide range of conditions. Its "egger" outline and increased surface area facilitate easier wave catching and stability, while a refined, high-performance rail allows for aggressive turning, speed, and flow. This board draws DNA from Taylor Jensen's pro longboard, shrunk down and refined for a mid-length feel. Key features include a rounded pin tail, a double concave through the tail transitioning to flatter through the nose with a slight roll, and a versatile five-fin setup offering quad, 2+1, or single fin options. This mid-length excels in various conditions, from small, gutless waves where its paddle power shines, to larger, overhead surf where its performance rails can be utilized. It is suitable for a broad range of surfers, from those stepping down from longboards to shortboarders looking for a fun, maneuverable alternative. The board boasts a hidden volume profile, maintaining plenty of flotation and paddle power without feeling bulky, and feels "like an absolute rocket ship" in the water. Despite its thin rails, it offers substantial volume and buoyancy. A significant pro is its versatility, allowing for both longboard-style maneuvers like nose riding and shortboard-like carving. The Volcanic Eyebolic construction enhances responsiveness and durability, with reviewers noting its exceptional resilience. The primary con, if any, is that its performance focus might be less forgiving for absolute beginners compared to a more traditional longboard, though its stability and paddle ease mitigate this. Overall, it's praised as a fun, all-around board that covers many bases and is a "safe bet" for most surfers.
