The '''Tribophysical waveform macro-kinetic extrapolator''' was a long, flat device which, when ridden like a surfboard wraps the user in a [[force field|protective bubble]] enabling them to ride the energy from a vast explosion.

[[Blon Fel-Fotch Passameer-Day Slitheen|Blon Slitheen]] intended to do this to escape early [[21st century]] [[Cardiff]], by blowing up [[Earth]] and riding away on the subsequent shockwave of energy. ([[DW]]: ''[[Boom Town]]'')

It was subsequently utilised by [[Ninth Doctor|the Doctor]] and [[Jack Harkness]] to create a [[force field]] around the [[the Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] to protect it from the [[Dalek]]s' missiles. It was again used to protect the upper floors of the [[Satellite Five|Game Station]] from the Daleks' [[transmat]]s. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Parting of the Ways]]'')

When [[Tenth Doctor|the Doctor]] used it to move the TARDIS 200 feet away from the [[Empress of the Racnoss]], it appeared to have been integrated into the TARDIS systems, being wrapped around with [[TARDIS coral]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Runaway Bride]]'') Later, the extrapolator's shielding was still in use by the Doctor, but it was no defence against a [[New Dalek Empire|fully-formed Dalek empire]] capable of taking planets out of orbit. ([[DW]]: ''[[Journey's End]]'')
