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-fail 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.

MORE ON THE SHAPE

The Spun Honey has Dan’s proven Spitfire-inspired bottom contours, a pretty aggressive double

concave set within a solid single concave, with the double running further forward to the nose than

most boards, providing amazing rail-to-rail performance. It’s got slightly more rocker curve on the rail

rocker compared to the Sweet Potato but less than the Spitfire, and the concave is aggreesive enough

so the stringer rocker is straighter than most boards like it but more than a pure groveler like the

Sweet Potato. The nose and tail rocker profiles are in between the Spitfire and Sweet Potato, and the

rail shape is a flat deck with a significant step closer to the rail like all of Dan’s Potato shapes. The foil

is full thoughout the body of th eshape with the tail rail dropping into a blady shape as well as a nicely

foiled performance nose.
