Firewire El Tomo Fish Surfboard Review

Ian reviews the Firewire El Tomo Fish surfboard: https://www.boardshop.co.uk/surfboards?brand_id=54&style=2098 The Firewire El Tomo Fish surfboard is the latest offering from the genius mind of Daniel Thomson. A beautiful looking and scientifically smart surfboard based around his earlier Fighter Jet Fish model but this time with the benefit of a quad fin arrangement and Firewire's proven LFT construction. The El Tomo Fish is designed to light-up smaller conditions and inject some speed into weaker and slower waves. The outline is unmistakably 'performance fish' but melded with Tomo's signature multi-concave hull which injects speed and rapid directional transitions into the mix. Tomo's instantly recognizable tail includes a bump wing into 'Double Diamond' which delivers serious levels of performance into what is still a "doable" shape for the intermediate thanks to the generous volume and relatively flat 'Evo-esque' rocker. The guys at Boardshop are keen to get their grubby little mitts on the demo, we think this is going to be a very, very popular and useable surfboard. The El Tomo Fish has a pretty wide wave-range; a great paddler and wave catcher when it's thigh-high and a fast and fun performance fish when its head high and maybe a foot or 2 over. The staff here have surfed pretty much every surfboard in the Firewire range at some time or another and we speak to surfers from all over the world and get their feedback on how the boards perform in all sorts of conditions so we're well placed to talk about all aspects of Firewire surfboards. We're happy to consider trading in your old board against a new Firewire, so If you have any questions about this we'd be delighted to answer them and advise on any potential board choices or enquiries you might have, just drop us an email to info@boardshop.co.uk or call us on 0044 (0) 1243 674250.

I have a 5'7" (30L) and have ridden it in average beach breaks, points, and reefs from thigh high up to about 2-3' overhead and feel like I could push it more without too much trouble. For under shoulder high I run it as a Twin only using my fastest and loosest twin or a keel, for chest to slightly overhead I run it as Twin (Tyler Warren Captain fin set) with the tiny knubster trailers, and for overhead I run it as Twin with two MR Trailers (smaller than a small thruster fin but bigger than a knubster) or as a quad. The board feels pretty different with each of those set ups, really playful on the lower end and stable and confident on the higher end. I don't feel any chatter like some EPS can have and I think that's a credit to the construction (which can also take a beating – way stronger than most PU and EPS I own).


I was torn initially between the 5'6" (28.5L) and 5'7" (30L) and I honestly think I could have gone either way. But to help me compete with some mid lengths and lonboarders at the mellower points and reefs around here I think the higher volume was a good decision.

I like the wide tail for bigger sprays on cut back's.. also I like the thickness.. easier to paddle and catch waves.. I like everything about that surfboard..
