The waves around San Clemente were too small to break, so we went to Oceanside.

Not many Californians surf waves this small, so the ocean was empty and the small waves were perfect for a test ride on the 5'2" COUCH POTATO.

I got the FU Wax base coat and tried it out.

I hadn't recommended it because it was expensive, but I was surprised to find that the FU Wax base coat that Kelly always uses is different.

It's true that FU Wax base coat doesn't melt easily even in warm sunlight.

For example, the base coat applied over the black MAYEHM mark of other manufacturers would easily soften and melt in the sun, but the FU Wax base coat remained clearly hard.

It seems to be difficult to dissolve in water, so I will continue testing it.

In the afternoon, I went to Epoxy PRO, the company that makes XTR in Oceanside.

In Habiyar's shaping room, a meeting was held to discuss whether it would be possible to produce boards more quickly, as XTR boards are very popular at Luvurf and the number of custom orders from customers is increasing every year.

The popular V-FLEX boards were being completed one after another.

This is the FISHQUEST2 model of XTR's high-end "3D CARBOLIC" that everyone dreams of!

The EVWING was also being carefully wrapped in carbon Kevlar (black is carbon, navy is Kevlar) to create a beautiful finish.

This is a high performance version of the XTR, V-FLEX specification, currently in production.

Laminator POTO talks about carbon for testing.

There are many stock boards and custom order boards from Japan in the factory.
I found a custom order board and told them to prioritize these two items when making them.
