What are you saying? I googled those boards with the question mark you mentioned and don't see anything.

I was just kidding around.

I like the assy and might put an assy tail on my next board that will probably be a tomo vanguard/vader style.

these look fun.

Oh man! I love the shape/concept of the camo one.  7'8" x 28" and 118 litres!?!  Where are they hiding all the foam?

Any ride reports or videos out there on that board?

Wide tail and wide nose.

I just shaped a 7'7 x 28.5 of this style and it turned out 112 liters. I was shocked!

Haven't seen any video yet but i'm sure it's coming. The RNB is a new model for 2015 so a vid should follow up with the launch. Here's some pics from Facebook of both boards in the water.

Can you do a roundhouse cutback or bash the lip on your assy without having to stuff the paddle?

Yes very much so magentawave , with the assym your toe side is pretty much the same board but your heel side becomes much easier to turn , for me it feels wierd not using the paddle during turns but thats just me

Nope, they weren't tomo-ish at all - just super nice short boards.  :)
