Firewire Mindcraft 5'10

Introducing the Mindcraft designed by Kelly Slater and Daniel Thomson, a minimalist shape designed for pure function. Built in our patented I-Bolic 2.0 Technology, and grom sizes (5'2" and under) built in our all-new G-Flex Technology. The Mindcraft was designed to connect the surfer to their equipment like never before, a mind surfing experience from the minds of two visionaries. The outline was chosen for its minimalism and pure function, "a seamless blend of straightened elliptical curves," says Daniel. The shape and design provide tons of speed and drive, with a feeling of pinpoint precision and the ability to turn on a dime - this board stays under your feet and goes where you want it to go. The bottom contours are smoother, more continuous, and more subtle compared to Tomo's past models, offering plenty of speed and flow with a moderate performance rocker. There's a single to double concave that keeps the design engaged with the wave face while still offering lively response familiar to Tomo's other designs. Pair with Kelly Slater's newest rake template, the Endorfins KSR as either a Quad or a Thruster, allowing for maximum versatility in waves 2-6 foot. WAVE TYPE The Mindcraft is a small wave performance shape that works well in 2' to just overhead. It's rocker makes it suitable to fit in the curve of a smaller wave, but it also works well in a flatter faced wave due to its width and the straightness of its outline. And because you can ride it at a shorter length, it jams in the pocket and goes top to bottom very quickly. BOARD FEATURES This shape has a relatively gentle rocker that's not too extreme but has enough tail kick to pivot nicely in the pocket. It's volume is hidden in the center with a rolled deck, and has a low-volumed rail with a soft profile for bitey control and instantaneous response. The torpedo nose provides low swing weight and makes it hard to catch your nose with its curves. The bumpwing roundtail is a tail design Kelly was really excited about for this shape that gives the outline a nice overall balance. The bulk of the board your need between your feet so you don't have to move around so much - you don't have to move forward for barrels or backwards for turns so you're in the sweet spot pretty much anytime you're up and riding. I-BOLIC 2.0 CORE TECHNOLOGY I-beam core construction with flex controlled at the rails using high density foam - an engineering feat developed for performance. I-Bolic 2.0 Technology offers the same speed, control, strength and response as the original, but with increased strength due to a fully engineered carbon strip inlay on the bottom deck and an updated look.   SS#9762622
