The fastest surfboard in the world? 🤯

New board day at Boardshop… The Dark Arts x Tomo Vader V2 60 Second Surfboard Review 🙌
The Tomo Surfboards Vader has returned, but now with the addition of the Vee Quad Concave hull design and in the Dark Arts construction and we are STOKED. Tomo strongly feels the Vader 2.0 is “the fastest surfboard design in modern surfing” and will level up the surfing of anyone who rides it.
A fresh perspective on perhaps the most ‘disruptive design in modern surfing’ VADER V2 is set to make another major stir with optimisation of the outline, bottom contour and nose entry curves.
This ‘ultra-high performance’ design once again defies traditional logic and offers an incredibly intuitive ride quality, effortless rail to rail transitions and an almost supernatural acceleration through turns.
Despite the tiny dimensions, the rectangular outline combined with the deep spine like nature of the Vee bottom, provide a balanced volume distribution under the chest for comfortable paddling and great wave catching, while still maintaining a fine rail profile for sensitive rail control.
How to size it - For good surfers looking for maximum performance: Size Vader V2 at 5-6 inches shorter than customers standing height (or equal to the tip of ones nose) same volume as lowest functional comfortable level or minus 1L from a traditional performance shape.
What fins? - Fin-wise it’s set up as a 5 fin, but really its best ridden as a quad.
Faster - Carbon Fibre is fast reacting and creates spring, unlike traditional fiber-glass cloth. The result of this natural rebound is speed.
Stronger - Hand crafted, vacuum bagged, carbon fiber cloth, over 2lb EPS stringer-less foam, for optimum, flex, weight and durability. Dark Arts surf continues to redefine the limits for how surfboards are shaped and constructed.
Lighter - Dark Arts’ process has created a product that sits in the lighter category of most constructions available on the market. They’re not just writing a new chapter - this is an entirely different book.

Which way do you surf it ?

[@BoardshopUK]

You wouldn't be able to either way round :)

[@sama5946]

Wonder what the glass job is like! My El Tomo was the worst glass job I have ever seen.
My own fault I should have gone over it more prior to buying it in the shop.

[@BoardshopUK]

El Tomo would have been Firewire construction. This is Dark Arts construction. Nothing to do with Firewire and glass job is superb!

[@sama5946]

@@BoardshopUK you way of saying buy it now haha.
Look I brought it up to them to her in aus told me not their problem

[@BoardshopUK]

@@sama5946 yep but that is still a Firewire issue ,totally different boards and different construction to this one. Not to mention a different country :)

I preferred the vanguard, but I am pretty sure my Vader was too big for me.

[@JamesFrost74659]

A work of ott. Take it to Nazerea.

[@rambiki]

Have you run other fins in it? Or just those? Any recommendations?

[@BoardshopUK]

Endorfins would also be a solid shout !
