All manufacturers combined make about 200 boards.

Today, we are here to exhibit our Precebo test drive booth at the Murasaki Sports test drive event held at Kamogawa Royal Hotel P. There are about 200 boards lined up from all manufacturers, which is quite an impressive sight. I think this is probably the largest test drive event in Japan. Yesterday's westerly wind and heavy rain caused the waves to get bigger! From morning until around noon, the waves were mostly closed off due to swells and side-onshore winds, so the test ride was held with the help of a lifeguard. They came from Atsugi and got out on their placebo boards in the closed-out waters, and caught a few waves. It was a shame they couldn't catch many waves because of the current, but I was relieved to see them come up with smiles on their faces. Here are some snaps of people who tried out the boards today. People from other manufacturers were also test driving the Presebo, which was by far the most popular for two days in a row. A pro exhibition was held in the afternoon, but Murasaki Riders Tomo and Hideyoshi couldn't participate due to feeling unwell after returning from Bali, so they had to surf in their place... In between three rides, they got off SeaWorld and were swept away by the helicopter in the end... Then, around 3 o'clock, the conditions changed and we had some amazing waves! For those of you who went surfing this afternoon, were the waves good across the country in the evening?
