Firewire Slate Designs Mindcraft Surfboard by Tomo – 5'6 (26.5L) – Futures Tri/Quad
The Firewire Slate Designs Mindcraft by Tomo is a compact performance surfboard built for surfers who want fast acceleration, responsive turning, and a lively feel in everyday conditions. With its balanced outline and modern construction, the Mindcraft is designed to help you generate speed quickly and keep the board feeling engaged through flatter sections and quick transitions.
Featuring a Futures Tri/Quad fin box configuration, you can tune the board to your preferred feel—run it as a thruster for control and drive, or as a quad for extra speed and a looser, more down-the-line flow. Fins are not included.
Buying from Rider Shack supports a small, family-owned core surf shop operated by surfers passionate about sharing the love of surfing and the ocean.
