DESIGN FORUM: Tomo Surfboards Evo Model Breakdown

[@hokuinsai4299]

Tomo, thanks for making me fall back in love with surfing with your designs! I really wish I could personally thank you in person. Keep up the brilliant work & keep pushing the limits in surfboard deign! You are a living legend! Aloha 🤙🏾

Awesome to see and hear the contemplative, reflective, searching, thinking human being. A look at the Evo with a few years of hindsight giving him an introspective vibe, I feel. I really enjoy listening to peoples evolved understanding of creative innovation with the advantages of retrospective insight. THANK YOU!

Refreshing to hear someone focus on the physics rather than what has been convention

I'd love to see Tomo explain each of his boards and how they differ for the same volume. Which riders should ride which boards and what are the limits?

Love the wider outline, reminds me of the Eastern Star a little bit. Super fun shape. Not the same old shit

The man is a genius

I have just bought a second hand board, ridden it twice and goes great. Trying to figure out the best fin set up, any suggestions?

[@juergenm6107]

I recently got my Evo for small waves and pool waves. I got a 6.0" and I'm 93kg. I was really surprised that he say a 5.6" are for guys up to 90kg.

Hey there! Great videos! Any recommendations for a quad fin set in the futures? I m 77kilos and just got a new tomo evo in 5"10. I m a average surfer on a short board and I feel like I need more control in the bottom turn. Cheers

[@ch3m1c]

wow, that's pretty big EVO for your weight, I'm 71kg and riding 5'4" EVO HE (29L) and wouldn't like anything bigger - and I'm a average intermediate surfer

For some reason I feel like he is seeing this board for the 1st time and had someone tell him the stats

[@DeforestLCooper]

I think he's talked about these models so much over the past 2-3 years of this model being shaped, ridden and released, that he's almost ran out of things to say about it. Its not like someone is asking him questions about the board that he can answer. This is just him explaining the board, and it seems like he's just searching for the appropriate and correct words. People are so critical of Tomo in the 1st place, that i'm sure he chooses his words carefully.

Tomo shapes for kely slater and i think that says it all but some people just don`t like to see others performing well, he is years ahead of most of the shapers and now you are seeing others copying the templates that he has been working on and improving for some years... i have a Evo, i know it`s not his original concept, he never said it was but he has improved it a lot. I have had other boards and this is just the best i have ridden so far but that is just my own personal opinion.
