Darmaputra Tonyo, home break.
Tonyo is all over surf news right now. Nice write up here: "In the surprise upset of the event so far..."
They refer to him as "...a small and wiry bundle of energy that never stopped smiling..."
He's even on Surfline: "making history as the first Indo surfer to make it to Round Three at this event..."
Surf media has taken to calling him Darmaputra Tonjo usually, with a j, and it looks like it's going to stick. In that Surfline feature, he's called Tonyo, Tonjo, and Tonya. Tonyo is his nickname, it's pronounced Tonyo, that's how he writes it, it's what he paints on his boards, and that's what his brother and all his friends call him. When asked about people now calling him Tonjo, he just smiles big and says, "It's OK..." He doesn't really care.
