There was a guy brandishing one at a reef around here on a day he didn't need it a few years back.haha 7’10 thomos for the fireturd kook crowd!
1\2 the dus out at trestles these days ride mid lengths. The plague is here lol. 9’6” thomo ftw! Can I get a Thomo glider? Like an 11 footer with qiscThere was a guy brandishing one at a reef around here on a day he didn't need it a few years back.
Scary stuff.
But if the outline is too straight, the board won't turn when you set it on rail. In the limit, look at those other Hydrodynamica videos where they're riding boxier planing hulls: the turns suck. Do Tomos really have a "long straight rail line"? They look like they have a similar outline to other HPSBs to me but I'm certainly no shaper.Based on planning hull theory, it features a long straight rail line with a torpedo nose profile for safety and lowing change of nosedive plus wider tail block for speed. This achieves several benefits. 1. It allows the design to be ridden shorter while maintaining adequate volume, rail line and paddle. 2. Projection and drive through the turns. lowering drag to outrun big sections where a low area pin tail may slow the board down.
No wonder beachhouse in SB has Tomos OTR.......I've owned multiple Tomos and thought they were all fun...but a "big wave paddle board" that is ALSO a "mid-length for small days"? Come on. There's acceptable levels of exaggeration in surf marketing (it paddles like a longboard)...then there's that. One board quiver!! 25ft Sunset to 2ft San O!

Everyone will be on Tomos at Jaws this winter. Supercharged with strong volts by Hiltons Energy Healing. Can't wait. http://instagr.am/p/BwTB3qCniVM/Crazy chit!
It makes sense that a wide tailed fish would outrun a pintail thruster or even a pintail quad.
If you're a big wave surfer you want speed right?
great boar design!Yes - he ate donuts
Come to 805 and watch rincon or even bedwetter....I wanna see someone order a 6'0 or 7'0 and ride it all cruisy like a midlength... that would be sick.
