Surfskate SMOOTHSTAR Holy Toledo 33″
The Surfskate SMOOTHSTAR Holy Toledo 33″ is suited to teenager to adult surfers 5”4’ – 6”0’ (162cm – 183cm) in height.
The 33” Holy Toledo is the original signature model of World Top 3 surfer Filipe Toledo.
This board has a shallow concave and is suited to surfers who wish to pump and generate speed on flat sections.
The 33” Toledo is also considered the step up board from the 32” Flying Fish, as it shares the same concave profile but more: width, length and wheelbase.
The 33” Holy Toledo has been a very popular model for many surfers all over the world and has all round performance for practicing surf turns.
The model name “Holy Toledo” was inspired by Felipe’s nickname, due to his radical and progressive surfing style when he was only 16 years of age.
Toledo loved the looseness of the 32” Flying Fish, but needed a bit more drive so a design was created extending all the measurements.
Toledo later tested a few different setups of width and wheels base distances.
The 33” Holy Toledo gives surfers an all round surf performance and especially excels in generation of speed on flats.

Our SMOOTHSTAR Surfskates can be used by beginners, intermediate or advanced riders.
If you wish to take in consideration some technical aspects for your riding, you should focus on:
Wheel Base
The Wheel base is the distance between the trucks and is really one of the key aspects of choosing the right Surfskate for your riding ability.
Basically the shorter the wheelbase, the tighter the turning and more critical turns.
However, you don’t want it too short, so that you’ll need to shorten the width of your legs too much, because that way you will lose balance.
Our recommendation is that you think about it considering your surfing stance, which is approximately a little bit wider than the width of your shoulders.
Measure the width of your stance against the wheels base of the Surfskate.
Deck
The Deck is very important to emulate the surf feel, since it connects your feet to the board.
We tested all our deck designs to perfectly fit the appropriate rider.
For example, the more critical boards such as the 32”, 33” and 36” have a steeper concave, as riders using these boards need to carve harder and sharper than those of the 30” and 29” models.
Without the concave, you’ll loose a part of the surf feel.
To simulate the tail pad on your surfboard, SmoothStar boards have very low tail kicker.
