In stock @ subtanksupply now as well, figures VapeNW is no news so far, definitely never again on the pre-order.
EDIT: just checked Subtanksupply, and it is SS only, no black yet.

Got a response from VapeNW, said they should be getting them next week 
You'd think as a fairly large vendor they would not be so far behind the pack

Got an email today from vivid smoke with SS version in stock. Would have been nice if VapeNW had sent mass mail or kept an updated estimate on their website, without having to ask them. Hopefully they get their stock at the beginning of the week.

Was seriously thinking of this one, but it's only 22mm and I already have the Hatty (22mm also) which also has side air flow to complement the bottom air.
If it was 25mm or at least 24mm I'd get it in a heart beat.

Tsunami Review:
I'm loving it!! Huge Kennedy style airflow but with AFC, Velocity style deck with monster post slots, 18-20 drop juice well and Magma style domed top cap. What more could anyone ask for? There are a couple of issues but just minor things. Best flavor for dual coils seems to come in at 60w and up due to its mid/large size atty chamber. I have no idea where peak wattage is. I've run it at 125w with the AFC closed down 33% so it's gonna be capable of clouding up room pretty quick! It's definitely gonna be one of 2016's most popular RDA's imo.
This atty builds with ease. Coils up to 4mm in diameter and 5mm in length are possible. I had no problem installing two 26/34 7wrap 3mm claptons and had plenty of extra room. Vertical builds are possible but limited to short coils due to the height of the Kennedy style air tubes.
Airflow can be adjusted from mouth to lung hitting to cloud chaser full inhales however the mid/large size atty chamber produces better flavor at 35w or higher with single coils and 60w or higher with dual builds. There are other atties better suited for low wattage mouth to lung hitting imo. The deck o-rings fit the cap perfectly.
The radiused cap gives great flavor at a wide range of vaping wattages. The flavor intensity approaches the Plume Veil and Magma style atties but lacks a little in the vapor density category due it's slightly larger atty chamber.
The Drip tips all fit perfectly and offer wide 510 drip tip to large chuff cap airflow. The 510 drip tip adaptor has a serrated profile to allow easy removal with any 510 drip tip. Very smart piece of engineering.
There are only two things that I would like to see changed in the version 2 release:
1. Shorten the 510 connector by 1.5mm so that the device will sit flush on spring loaded 510 mods.
2. Change the dual air tubes to single oval air tubes to allow more wicking room between the air tube and outer juice well wall because even though the build deck allows for larger than 3mm diameter coils you really don't have enough room for wicking them. So using smaller (shorter) oval air tubes (one on each side) will flow just as much air as two larger (wider) air tubes and will allow for more wicking with bigger coils.
Overall, great job by GeekVapes with the Tsunami. Got mine from Heavengifts. Good prices and fast shipping.

Probably already been said, but this thing looks like a game-changer. Kennedy style atty, with a Velocity deck for less than one-third the cost of the Kennedy? I'm definitely in - ordered today.
Geekvape is hitting a lot of home runs with the Avocado, Griffin, and now the Tsunami...and they aren't stupid expensive. My Avocado is shockingly well machined for under 30 bucks and a solid value...but you all knew that already.

Thanks for the heads-up. Just ordered the Tsunami from Subtank Supply.
vaping heathen I think that's the name on YouTube has a review for 24mm version
Received my tsunami today! Unfortunately, I won't be home until Friday because I drive a truck Monday through Friday away from home..... Never fails, leave Monday morning and get a bunch of vape mail!! :-(
Got it today! It's a mighty fine vape. O-rings are a bit tight, even with juice, but I replace the bottom one and it's better now. Wish it had a lip/ledge for the top cap to sit on so juice don't get pushed onto my mod.
Other than those little quirks this thing provides the best flavor of all my RDAs even my Kennedy 24 clone. Can't wait until the Tsunami 24mm comes out!!

There is a small lip on the base that the top cap sits on. The o-rings seal good too so if you're getting juice leaking out onto your mod there are two possible reasons:
1. Overdripping
2. Wicks touching the top of the airtubes. You have to make sure to keep the wicking away from the top lip of the airtubes or else juice will wick into them and pour out of the afc even when you don't overdrip.

Nice.
SMPL mod?
Very nice! I am thinking I won't have mine until next week. VapeNW said "We expect to have them in stock this week" when I asked them yesterday.
Mine came yesterday from Subtank Supply. Build quality is excellent and the grub screws are the best I've seen.
Dual 11 wrap 2.5mm ID 26/32 Claptons sitting on a Noisy Cricket. Very nice vape!! Ease of build, flavor and vapor for days, extra drip tips, post holes big enough to drive a truck through, build quality, awesome grubs, very nice aiflow......10 out of 10 for me!!! Once again GeekVape exceeds my expectations!!
