So..here we go. The WEIRDEST surfboard I've ever reviewed! (Or ridden for that matter..)

I'll be honest - this is my first time riding any of Daniel Thomson (Tomo's) shapes. I always thought they 'looked strange' and didn't think my riding style would suit his modern planing hull designs. Guess them being good enough for Kelly Slater didn't convince me lol.

Was I right? Is this 'snowboard-esque' shape the future of surfing?

How does it compare to some of the other Firewire shapes - like the Mashup, Seaside, Machadocado, and more. Do the new Tomo Max Keel fins hold? How's the Ibolic Volcanic technology work with the unique board?

Watch the full review to find out - and see if this board belongs in your quiver - or can replace it entirely.

Rider Dimensions - 5'10, 172 lbs

About the ‪@firewiresurfboards‬ Revo Max | Shaped by ‪@dantomo81‬
Tomo's latest Modern Planing Hull shape featuring his innovative Vee Quad Concave. The Revo Max is a step up twin and performance midlength rolled into one surfboard. It's likely one of the most versatile designs Tomo has created. It offers effortless speed and rail-to-rail transitions in conditions under waist high to triple overhead.

Wave Type
The Revo Max is a step up twin and performance midlength that works well in 2 to 8 foot surf, especially in lined-up pointbreaks and well-shaped beachbreaks.

Board Features
This unique bottom contour provides ease of transition, offering uncommon control on rail at speed. The Vee is what provides unrivaled rail to rail transitions.

Max Keel Fins
The Tomo Max Keel is Daniel Thomson's twin template that offers the trim of a keel with the response of a twin. Tight radius turns in the trough and clean control across the face, this template is Tomo's ultimate Twin Keel shape, crafted from a blend of traditional keel templates and performance twins.

This template has more surface area than any Twin fin, and less surface area than any Keel fin. The Tomo Max Keel is a groundbreaking hybrid of traditional and performance templates, creating an inventive blend of trim, speed, control, and style. Single Tab variants are compatible with Futures' fin system.
