AFS FIRE

All AFS DNA in one board!

01
BE FREE IN FLIGHT

The AFS FIRE is a compact hull design with a relatively thick hull, straight rails and reduced width, allowing us to reduce the bulk in flight as much as possible. This compactness provides better pumping efficiency and dynamic manoeuvres.

02
A QUICK TAKE OFF

With a taut outline (longitudinal straight rails), the hull of the AFS FIRE features a double concave combined with a bulb on the front underside, providing optimized support on the nose. This support provides better glide and allows you to take off more quickly. Towards the stern, the AFS FIRE design has a complex design of cut-outs specific to each hull, reducing the wet surface of the board as soon as the speed rises. These free the board for a real kick off.

03
AN INSTANT RESTART

Thanks to the taut outline of the board, these boards are dynamic, precise and responsive, while retaining great user friendliness. The Combination of the nose profile with straight rails and pronounced cut-outs ensure not only very early take off and tremendous speed, but also means that any unintended touch downs will invariably result in immediate touch & goes, rather than a big crash or a lot of work to get flying again!

05
DIFFERENT BOARD SIZES

The Fire is available in 4 sizes: 4'9, 5'2, 5'5 and 5'8 and all feature 'Y' configuration of footstrap mounts and our super comfy EVA deck with large heal kicker.

07
PACK

The board is supplied ready to use, but without Footstraps/screws, Bag and Leash - These are available for separate purchase.

Please remember to use the pressure vent screw (Breather Screw) correctly. It must be tightened before going on the water and should be undone at least half to 1 turn when you have finished using it.

It is vital that the pressure in all top quality sandwich construction boards is able to equalise to accommodate variations caused by temperature, radiant heat and altitude!

Our correctly engineered Aluminium Breather Screw is by far the best way to ensure the board does not suffer serious damage due to 'over pressure' of the internal structure. We invariably find that if you do not have a large flat blade screwdriver, in the UK a 20p piece is an excellent tool for closing and opening this screw without damaging it - if using the 20p method, close it tightly, so the 'O' ring seals well


All AFS Products carry a 2 year Warranty from the date of purchase, subject to our fair usage policy.

Tech Specs/Care Advice:

See Tech Spec image in web images.

All ASF FIRE boards feature:

Handle - Underside

Footstrap mounts: 'Y' configuration (straps and screws available as extra purchase)

3/4 length EVA Dck Pad for comfort and grip.

Board Leash Attachment Point on Stern Deck.

Manual Board Breather Screw to allow for pressure equalisation within the board.

The pressure variations within your board caused by both temperature and altitude changes, must be allowed to equalise to prevent damage to the structure!

Manual screws are by far the best way to cater for all environments and are easy to remove to check the condition of the 'O' ring seal and screw, remove sand, etc.

They must be closed before going onto the water and opened at least 1/2 to 1 turn, when you have finished for the day.

Always remove the screw completely for transport on an aircraft. Re fit when you get to your destination.

Remember that when the screw is slack, if the board is not in a board bag, there is a risk of the screw vibrating undone completely and falling out and being lost in transit.

Never leave any Epoxy/Sandwich construction board (whatever make) which is wet or even damp, zipped up tight in a bag!

The high humidity can result in blistering of the paint, caused by an effect called 'Osmosis'.

For transport on the roof of a vehicle, it's fine to have the bag zipped up, but if inside a vehicle, and when storing, always unzip by at least half a meter to the let the bag breath and the board to dry, otherwise it's sat in its own private sauna!

All AHD, AFS, Sealion and NAH Skwell boards have tremendous strength to weight ratios, thanks to our very careful selection of materials and our outstanding 'OSS' moulding process.

In the event that you have an accident (requiring repair), nearly every type of damage can be completely fixed on our boards! - we try to keep our graphics as simple as possible, to help you make repairs invisible if you wish to.

It is essential that whoever carries out repairs, understands the importance and significance of the cloths and sandwich materials we use and match these as closely as possible, especially if it's a structural repair.

The biggest thing to remember is that all resins or fillers used must be EPOXY Resin based!
