Nicholas from Ultimate Surf & Skate NZ reviewing the most beloved FIREWIRE TOMO EVO in the new Helium construction.

As we all know the Evo is the pinnacle of Daniel Thomson’s (Tomo) Modern Planing Hull designs, which have been around for years, but is it still worth it to buy an EVO in 2021? The answer is YES OF COURSE!

The original EVO was shaped by Daniel in 2014 which lead him to the beginning of the path towards refining his Quad Inside Single Concave - a design principle that has since pollinated across every shape he designs, while the Evo continues to maintain its position as one of the easiest to surf shapes on earth.

This model was first released in LFT in 2014. Today we’re excited to release what we believe is the best version of the Evo yet. This shape is now built-in Firewire's Helium construction - so light it shocks you and so responsive it talks to you. And most importantly, combining the best of both Timbertek and LFT.

The Helium Rail, built using a combination of Paulownia and Balsa wood creates the same on-rail sensations as the Timbertek Evo, while the Helium deckskin and incredibly light foam core bring this shape to a weight measurement even lower than its LFT cousin.
