Every FireWire surfboard I have ever owned has changed my surfing for the better, this board am sure will be the same.. could listen to tomo for ever.. good job guys.
I would love to try one and I will besides all the talk tomo boards go insane fastest boards in junk or standing in tubes he’s doing something right let him draw his inspiration from where ever he feels for his boards might look different but they bring sooo much joy to so many of all levels thanks tomo
I am not an engineer but for those that say Tomos theories are b.s. jump on one of his boards and see how much speed they generate and how fast you will go, especially if your not a pro. The problem for most average surfers is generating speed but Tomo's boards just make it so much easier! Been a big fan since I got a Vader 5 years ago and have had lots of different models since then. Cant wait to try this baby out. Thank you Tomo for making my surfing better.
I love how you guys are constantly redefining surfboard technology, design and construction. Keep pushing and evolving and testing the limits man. Thank you for you creativity, innovation and passion. 💯 💯 💯
A great surfer in some great waves I’m sure he could make 90% of boards look the same in those conditions where the wave and ability do most of the work. This is the problem, no disrespect but it’d be nice to see how the thing goes in much steeper/sucky waves or even fat mushy waves so we can see what stands out about the board.
My buddy is 75 and he can hardly pump for speed I saw him get an insanely long wave today for small weak closed out beach break about 1-2ft he made about a 50 yard section which on about any of his other boards even bigger ones he’d never had made the planing Hull helps for not having to work for your speed it just generates it. That’s to me the big thing that stands out.
Very very awesome very cool can't wait to get one of these one of these days. Thank you for making such an awesome board so cool and I'm sure it rides really nice. Happy surfing from Virginia Beach! :-)
Firewire Surfboards would love to see a hyper stoked firewire focused shred show again he always featured a ton of fire wire shapes and I’d love to see just 100% fire wire love the podcast but his energy level is pretty magnetic really helps me get stoked to think about surfboards and design!
Phenomenal looking new Tomo Quad,. w/ Hatchet find/ double diamond swallow... ( Hope I didn't butcher the pronunciation I was trying to cross)That appears that it would work well/ great here in NJ in the + Months: Nov-March...Top to Bottom Cold water beach breaks👍☝️🤔
there’s the possibility of me getting a Tomo TieFighter...It’s the right size and a liter or two extra for me (reg 29L, this one is 31L) to get moving on the mushy yet down the line running waves that are the usual east coast local sand bar post dredge debacle that I have to surf...thing is I have a local shaper that I’d like to take his ideas a step further and go asym on it maybe w even more nub fins in odd places... I really should do it huh, both the TieFighter n the custom Asym huh...ohh man I enjoy getting weird w surf shapes haha
Never rode a faster more electric surfboard in 35 years of surfing than the Tomo Vader. I’m hoping this board has the same magic and from all reports it does.
We just received this text this morning from a former VADER fan in San Diego, CA: " Are you kidding me??? I took the El Tomo Fish out this weekend, obviously our surf is pretty crummy right now but that boards [SIC] glides, has lift and is so reactive. It feels insane and I can't wait to get it non some bigger punchier surf!! "
Anyone else think that Tomo surfs this board way better when the waves are smaller? Huge fan of his concepts, loved my Evo and its speed and planning the next inspired shape.
The El Tomo is primarily dialed for waves head high and under. You can see he makes it work in the bigger stuff, but it's on fire in the smaller stuff.
It's best in waves knee high to around head high, but you can push it in waves up to 8 feet if you don't mind controlling the speed this board creates in powerful waves..

That's really exciting to hear. Thank you for telling us. 🙏🏻
Looks like my old V4 Tomo I had.
I really enjoyed it!
That's the thing. How is it any different from a v4?

Thank you..🙏🏻
I was closer to the truth in thinking it should've been named the Tomo-Hawk... It's nice.
You're good at this. Not a bad name at all.
defo a better name dude
Looks really interesting

We did everything we could in December to film Tomo Surfing in as many waves in California as possible. Unfortunately the waves never got that bad. 😉

Thank you Kyle.
Awesome work, board looks amazing. where are you able to buy those awesome fins from
Thank you Gavin. 😃🙏🏻 The fins are coming out through FUTURES at nearly all surf shops that sell our surfboards.
kryptsurf Are you still around ? Lol.
It's difficult to tell how a board surfs when it's filmed in slow motion.
Sick! Can't wait for the El Tomo..
Do a shred show on it. Matter fact do a shred show on anything!!!
We'll tell him. 😃
Chris Grow, don't leave us hanging.

Perhaps a full release 5 Meo dmt experience is in the cards for Tomo's evolution

We should get one to Sam Hammer for testing there!
Not a Hatchet fin The Original Powerdrive fins available from powerdrivefins.com/
I noticed that Tomos not using the hatchet fins in some of the footage what alternative fins would you recommend. How would it go as a twin fin only ?
Hmm contemplating getting one for the URBNSURF pool in Melbs.
That's a fun wave!

This looks like a great board with thoughtful design, but why is it called a fish design? It has almost nothing in common with a fish.
Never rode a faster more electric surfboard in 35 years of surfing than the Tomo Vader. I’m hoping this board has the same magic and from all reports it does.

Really a pity that it's not available in Helium though.
I would bet anything that a twinzer set up ( similar to mable or kenson) would suit this design best.
If you try it, please let us know how it goes.
@@firewiresurfboards Sure. Does Tomo have hatchet twinzer fins?
what's the dims tomo ride?

@@firewiresurfboards Thanks for the reply Guys, i totally agree. No disrespect to him the Guy rips!!
🤙🤙🤙sick
The Tomó scifie the Best 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆👍🏼🇵🇷🤩
Jackson Dorian loves it.
Firewire Surfboards l love my Tomo 5-11👍🏼🤩
Are the future fins going into production?
Yes. You can find them at surf shops everywhere.
how small and how big of a wave can you push it in.
It's best in waves knee high to around head high, but you can push it in waves up to 8 feet if you don't mind controlling the speed this board creates in powerful waves..
Firewire Surfboards that is insane how big of wave it can handle! Definitely interested on testing design
@@firewiresurfboards sick. Thanks
Nice shape need to get me feet on one
Step up the eco side of things, the oceans could use your help

Ashton Gardner which one in particular?
