Sub Moon
Dimensions: 6’8″ x 21 x 2 5/8
Liters: 37.4 L
The SUBMOON is the ultimate FUNshape. Designer Nev Hyman explains: “We combined a contemporary rocker and concaves and even thickness distribution with a quirky FUNshape outline that encourages a more vertical shortboard approach to the traditional longboard style of surfing. The outline has generous curve between your feet, which encourages the board to get on rail and TURN! The narrower moon tail provides bite, drive and direction, and the snub nose carries area forward for a bit of tip hang-cheater five FUN.”

Unibrow
Dimensions: 6’6″ x 20 1/2 x 2 7/8
Liters: 40.4 L
Designer Dan Mann explains, “The UNIBROW has roots in a design I’ve been riding as my regular short board, mixed with what I’ve learned from designing and riding the Dominator, Sweet Potato and Potato-Nator. The outline curve is compressed from a regular shortboard without sacrificing the width needed to maximize paddling and planing speed.
The goal was to design a very high-performance shortboard that didn’t feel too ‘bulky’ in good surf when you can ride something other than a groveler. The rail profile is dropped and very sensitive, especially through the tail. The bottom has an aggressive single concave that start
s in the nose, carries through the deep spot forward of the fins and splits into a subtle double concave that then directs the water flow to the inside of the front fins”.

Liters: 31.8L
The PRO_File v1.0 was developed incorporating feedback from our top team riders to create the highest performance design in our range. The outline features continuous curve from nose to tail and with accentuated tail rocker added for extreme turns in the most critical part of the wave

Dimensions: 5’7″ x 20 x 2 5/
Litres: 33.9L Tomo Model
EVO (Evolution) is a new take on the MPH design,utilizing softer features and more outline curve to encourage a smoother transitions and a more ‘in the pocket’ line of attack. A wider central wide point comparative to the Vader, the EVO should be considered favorable to smaller weaker waves, however like most Tomo MPH Designs , the EVO will still be quite functional in overhead waves conditions.
Maintaining an almost symmetrical outline and a completely unique and highly innovative “Double inside single concave into split quad concave” planing hull, The EVO feels as if it’s almost ‘levitating’ on the water! Yet once on rail, it has a precise rail sensitivity and hold. The EVO should be ridden as short as possible with user friendly volumes packed into the shortest MPH sizings yet offered by Tomo.

The Amigo
Dimensions: 6’0″ x 19 5/8 x 2 1/2
Liters: 30.4L
(Note: Has been dinged and repaired)
The heart of the Amigo is a very fast, very user-friendly rocker that not only gains speed easily, but also has a loose, snappy feel in all kinds of waves. The outline is full with a nice hip leading into a wide tail block, which adds to the speed but lets it break free where you want it to. The bottom has single concave running all the way through, with just a touch of double concave between the fins. This combo gives lift to get the board planing on top of the water easily and helps maintain speed through flatter, weaker sections.
If you love riding a stubbie, but you crave a more high performance feeling, the Amigo is going to be the board for you.

Slab
Dimensions: 6’1″ x 19 1/8 x 2 7/16
Liters: 30.1L
The Slab by Pyzel is John John Florence’s ideas refined into his perfect free surfing model. John John wanted 3 inches off the nose of the JP-X and an increased tail rocker. This resulted in a fuller nose, fatter top section and an extremely high performance fun board that goes well in a range of conditions.
The lower nose rocker gives the Pyzel Slab heaps of speed early in the take off and when driving down the line. An easy nose rocker and extra tail rocker makes the board speedy but provides the ability to easily release it in the pocket for high performance surfing

Go Fish Linear Flex
Dimensions: 5’11” x 20 3/4 x 2 7/16
Liters: 35L
“This board just makes me want to surf.” Rob beams.
He continues “No matter what the waves are like, whether it’s Kelly’s wave or a beach break in France, I just love how speedy and drivey it is, and I love the unique lines it lets me draw.”
Visually, the Go Fish sits excitedly at the intersection of “Brand-New” and “Totally Familiar” – the same traditional outline that every fish enthusiast is familiar with, but containing an entirely new approach to bottom contours.
This Rob Machado design is an advanced adjustment to a proven fish concept, and it’s easy to imagine it working fantastically on the face of wave when you hold it under your arm, fingers wrapped around a familiar rail, on the edge of a concave that feels uncommonly exciting.

Go Fish
Dimensions: 5’7″ x 20 1/2 x 2 5/16
Liters: 31.1L
(Note: Has been dinged and repaired)
Go Fish. I’ve narrowed up the swallow tip to tip to give the board more maneuverability and the narrower nose gives it a more speedier outline. The rocker is fairly relaxed with a low entry rocker upfront combined with a subtle tail rocker, giving this board quick ‘up and go’ and maximizes its top-end speed.

Liters: 35.7
Dimension: 5’6″ x 22″ x 2 9/16″
Liters: 37.8L
The Sweet Potato dramatically changes the ratio between the length and width of a board while still allowing the design to perform at a very high level.
Designer Dan Mann explains, “The aggressive bottom contour creates considerable lift and the deep double concave with a ‘spine’ down the middle divides the board in half isolating the fins, rocker and bottom on one side of the board at a time. This allows the board to get on a rail quickly. The Sweet Potato is the board you should always bring on a surf check, and you’ll find yourself ripping on small days where you’d otherwise go home”

Liters: 27.3L
Dimensions: 6’0″ x 19 x 2 3/8
Liters: 28.8L
Inspired by the extreme rocker boards that Greg Webber and Shane Herring developed in the early 90’s, the BANANA is a far more user-friendly version that Kelly and Greg developed for intermediate to advanced surfers. And meant to be ridden in better than average conditions.
The BANANA has a smooth outline curve from nose to tail, a slight bump wing in front of the fins, as well as a generous single concave bottom contour. The end result is an extremely high performance surfboard that can be pushed hard through turns, while holding it’s own in deep barrels. In other words, the carving rail turns and extreme tube riding that Kelly was doing at Pipe on the smaller days during the 2015 Masters.

Dimensions: 6’3″ x 20 3/8 x 2 3/4

According to Daniel: “My Modern Planing Hull philosophies philosophy is that at ground level, every board should work well in crappy conditions. But the SKX also works well in the conditions I designed it for, which is more of an unruly ocean where a planning hull, a wide tail, might be too much lift and speed. with the SKX, the squash tail will give a little more control in those situations.”
But what matters most in the SKX is the design placed within that squash tail – Tomo’s Quad Inside Single Concave.
He describes it: “A regular channel might feel more trackey and drivey, whereas the Q.I.S.C. enhances speed and promotes detachment from the water until the board is on-rail. At that point, it really grips into the wave like a channel bottom. It’s the best of both worlds. The SKX is optimized more towards round faces like Snapper.”

Gamma

Liters: 31.8L
Dimensions: 6’4″ x 20 1/2 x 2 7/8
Liters: 38.5L
With a single concave bottom and slight vee behind the back fin, this board is extremely fast and has a ton of drive.The vee out the rear of the board makes for quick rail to rail transitions. Within the hi performance short board range this would be considered a medium rocker with a med to even a slightly pinched rail.
The distinct hip on the Gamma gives it a tighter turning radius allowing it to be ridden in a shorter wider set of dims as well as the common performance short board dims. This board excels in a broad range of waves and conditions.

Dominator 2.0
Dimensions: 5’7″ x 19 7/8″ x 2 3/8″ Squash
Liters: 29.4L
Dan Mann’s shortboard design makes performance accessible to all. The DM II is meant to be a clean update of the original with design features that allow it to work well in a wider range of conditions and enhance its performance. The obvious outline change is the tail going to a squash from the round tail. Also, the rails are slightly more refined and performance-oriented.

A futuristic twist of fluid dynamic principles you would have expected to find in the design archives of Bruce Wayne. And surfers who haven’t ridden one yet can expect shocking acceleration, instantaneous response, and an all-around level of performance that can only be thought of as Electric.

Liters: 34L
Dimension: 6’0″ x 20 x 2 13/16
Liters: 37.7L
The Rocker is a tried and true template I’ve relied on for a long time in grovelers. I’ve modified it slightly, adding flip in the nose and tail.
The No Brainer is a board that an advanced and talented surfer can grovel and shred on, but at the same time something that all other levels of surfer can ride in small to decent sized surf.
The bottom contour is made up of a subtle belly v in the nose that goes into a moderate single concave under the chest. Within that single concave is a double concave that runs through nearly the entire length of the board. Even through the fins. But in the last five or so inches of the board it turns into a spiral V, because since I started working with Kelly over the last couple years, I’ve learned that V is something really critical to him in most of his shapes.
I recommend surfing this board with your favorite quad set. “

Spitfire Helium

Liters: 38L
(Note: Has been dinged and repaired)
With a bit more bite on tightly angled turns in the pocket, we gave the tail a nip and a tuck to create the stepped down diamond tail. What has made this board so popular in places like California, the United Kingdom and France is how full the rails and the foil are with foam, coupled with a rocker curve and fin placement that simply work great in waves that are not barreling top to bottom.

Houdini Round Pin

When the waves get serious and you need control through the barrel, the Houdini is the board you can rely on. Making it easy to disappear and reappear in Hawaiian tubes, or other locations, where controlled lines through racy barrels are a must. The bottom contour consists of a single to double with slight vee, in spite of its step-up frame, the Houdini has incredible acceleration and maneuverability.

Sci-Fi + Omni = Cymatic. Daniel Thomson’s popular performance shape. The Cymatic is an avant-garde, ultra-high-performance machine. This shape is a hybrid of the Sci-Fi and Omni models – you can almost imagine the two boards combining naturally one night with Tomo away from the shaping bay.

The Hydroshort is one clean looking board. The aesthetics are taken from the Hydronaut and repurposes this into a shorter board with optimum performance targeted for everyday surf conditions. The unique torpedo nose is combined with a medium rocker throughout and an underside featuring the Quad inside single concave that TOMO’s boards are famous for. The soft squash tail (pending boardshop trademark) finishes the board perfectly.

If you are looking to hit up some solid swells, then the Hydronaut is exactly what you need – Tomo’s first step-up dedicated to powerful waves features a torpedo nose, that really represents Tomo’s big wave approach to maneuverability, in the same way the ‘cut off’ nose in the Omni and Cymatic represent his approach to maneuverability in smaller waves. This shape has an elliptical template with a wide point forward of center and a tight radius ‘torpedo’ round nose profile.

FST Chubby Chedda
Dimensions: 5’10” x 19 3/8″ x 23/8″
Liters: 28.7L
Designed by Luke Short, the Chubby Chedda is a refined version of the original Chubby Checker, a favorite of many including Julian Wilson when he’s free surfing or pushing it in expression sessions. Luke widened the outline slightly while adding a subtle hip behind the front fins, adding more whip through turns. The Chubby Chedda is best described as a ‘performance-hybrid’, and should be ridden at least two inches shorter than your standard high performance short board.
