Used it yesterday in waist high, caught one wave and couldn’t believe speed and flow from such a small wave, it is more efficient than my conventional shaped boards so I think it has some mph genes in it for sure, but haven’t ridden Vader/vanguard type boards to compare.against thoseI don't even think it qualifies as an MPH
The bottom has a lot of vee
I think he means he prefers the new Ibolic vs HeliumDo you mean the XTR vs the helium or the Volcanic?
Not to get pedantic, but if the spine (vee) really goes that far forward toward the nose like @spjones123 says… I don’t see how it wouldn’t be a displacement hull rather than a planing hull. In the literal sense of creating a break and displacing the water- even if maybe not in Tomo’s definition of an “MPH” outline. Wonder what planing hull guru RK would think.@schex Tomo describes a modern planing hull as very "parallel in the outline" and a rectangular shape - wide nose and short. I don't think having a concave bottom is a requirement of a Modern Planing Hull?
I definitely think the Revo qualifies as a "Planing Hull" design because it has a blunt nose, is wide, and short. The hydroshort is a good example of what is not a MPH design.
I thought the same thing and asked the same question. Its interesting to discuss.Not to get pedantic, but if the spine (vee) really goes that far forward toward the nose like @spjones123 says… I don’t see how it wouldn’t be a displacement hull rather than a planing hull.

Meh, I liked the Grande better when it was called the GlydraSo many options the new site, I think Tomo should do a video to explain! Its very similar to the XTR website with a nice little drop down menu for all the options. You can even get his old logo on there too!
PU Poly, PU Epoxy or EPS Epoxy.
VCQ, QISC or No Channels.
Carbon strips on top and bottom or straight stringerless.
Only option they didn't add was color, but I'm sure you can order once the order is placed.
Freakin stoked on this site! He also added "El Tomo Grande" for the blokes that like a longer board.
Smallest is 6'2 x 18 1/2 x 2 3/8 x 29.6L.
Here is Tomo riding the El Tomo Grande at the Pier in Oside.
