  • The Tomo by Monokei x TGR is in stock after completing it's GB and it's the first time I have gotten to look at it. And it's pretty solid! This was a client's board that they commissioned me to build up and I was overall impressed by the aesthetic and sound profile. I love when boards have dual mounting systems, even though we couldn't use it today due our stab choices.
    Over all I was really happy with the Tomo. I admit, I initially dismissed this board since the style wasn't really 'me' when it first released (plus I was broke), but as time went on it really grew on me. In fact this made me really want to grab one for myself!

    Alex, Just a small "THANK YOU!". I appreciate all of your content, advice and care you give to your community. I've said it before and I'll say it again, your positive interactions and responses is refreshing especially in a space that can be negative. I think your livestreams, candid convo about builds/reviews is tops among creator content (also appreciate your "life lessons" comments. Keep doing what your doing!
