great review @surfrevv ! compere the LFT cymatic (liked the board but no the tech...) would you say the volcanic is more similar to the Helium (love it!!!) inn terms of light weight and flex?

Yes, the volcanic is a lot more similar to the helium2. It’s light and rigid at the same time. The flex is definitely there though. It would be hard to ride another construction after riding the volcanic. Probably why they are offering volcanic option in most of their recent designs 🤙🏽🤙🏽

is it lighter then the original LFT? (its LFT or i-bolic beniet..its not the helium 2..😢)

@@eyalpolishook6486 I believe so. I haven’t ever owned the LFT version of this board but the idea of the volcanic construction was to introduce something lighter and stronger than all the other constructions.

Quite an accurate review @surfrevv! I have owned a 5’9” Cymatic since ‘2019 (LFT). In my opinion this is one of the best (most fun rides) I have owned. Very versatile on the wave size 3ft-7ft. It has that interesting balance between speed, maneuverability and control. That can all be fine tuned to your liking with fins. I have experience riding many different models from Slater, Tomo and Firewire for years. I am surfing for 20+ years. I am intermediate to intermediate advanced on a good day. I surf powerful waves in Portugal. Beachies and Reefs. The only gripe I have regarding the LFT model (all white); it turns yellow and gets ugly. Having said, that, the board still works great after all these years!!! If the Volcanic construction was released back then, I would have gone for that. I have a 5’9” I am selling to size up to a 5’10”. I am 6ft, 190lbs. Since I am in some pretty strong surge often times, I feel I could use a bit extra foam. My next Cymatic will be the Volcanic Construction. I definitely recommend this board for intermediate to expert surfers! The fun factor is off the charts!!!🎉

Agreed. Thanks for your feedback! Yes, the volcanic has more rigid construction along with a tad bit more float. 🤙🏽

This was a great review! There was a bit of a slip at the start when the construction is referred to as “volcanic carbon layer”, and “I have a few other carbon fibre boards (to compare this one with).” I’m guessing what was meant was the basalt fibre used in the Volcanic construction is visibly similar to carbon fibre, and has some similar characteristics. But as is also described in the video, basalt has different characters from Carbon fibre, and as FireWire show in their cross sections there is no carbon fibre layers in the board.

Regarding just the shape of the board in itself, I don’t see any changes in the contours or in the shape. But if you were a fan of the cymatic, you will absolutely love this board in this construction. The flex generates a whole new feel to this board on the wave.

In my opinion, since I have both of those constructions, the volcanic Construction is a little heavier than the helium 2. it is essentially the helium 2 with the layer of volcanic fiber introduced into the lamination process. I would say it’s a little heavier than the ibolic construction too.

super responsive. I took it out at waist to chest high. I'd need to take this board out at head high to overhead conditions to really get a better feel.
