A young man from the island of Maui, entered one of the most prestigious surf events in the world as a huge underdog and emerged victorious against a field of the best Pipeline surfers in the world. We used to call him Tom Grom...but now we call him Tom Bomb!

Tom Dosland takes a bottomturn off a meaty Backdoor wave - Nov. 2005.
I made this one a wallpaper size (1024 x 768) for your desktop viewing pleasure.

Thank you for viewing.
Aloha, mana

Thank you for sharing this exciting shot. It is enhanced and accented by the surfer's expression.

I can see why you call him Tom Bomb now. He looks like an awesome surfer. Looks like an awesome wave as well; great shot as always buddy :)!
