New shape conzept by Meyerhoffer
A cross between a tadpole and an electric toothbrush. Surely no one has uttered those words when describing the shape of a surfboard, and some might argue, never should. But that’s how you might describe the latest design from Swedish-born California transplant Thomas Meyerhoffer. An award-winning designer with clients like Apple, Coca-Cola, and Puma, Meyerhoffer released his first surfboard design, the Meyerhoffer Longboard, in 2009. With its wide nose, pulled-in mid-section, wide hips, and narrow tail, it was a radical departure from the traditional longboard. The board took home a slew of prestigious awards, including the 2010 Gold International Design Excellence Award, the highest honor for industrial design.
