It was cloudy and windy in LOWERS this morning, so we're shooting a video today.

We are relieved that we have finally completed the necessary quantities of "SURF GRASS" to be delivered to retailers nationwide by the end of April.

It was crowded, so I decided to ride the 5'4" FISHQUEST II so I wouldn't lose out to the kids in the wave-catching battle. It's 30cm long, so it takes off 1-2 seconds faster.

Today, I went to check the progress of the production process of the order board from Japan.
The first one is the "Catalyst" Glass Factory.
Recently, it's becoming popular to position the LOST and MAYHEM marks in a way that's not standard.

This is where the resin is extracted from the drum containing it.

We specified every detail of the custom order received from a Japanese customer at Mayhem.

The second stop was a visit to the Barsham Glass Factory with Mayhem.

"CONQUEST EL-DIABLO" was being sanded.

Glass lamination and sanding have been completed, and we are now waiting for the process of applying Nanotune.

We also visited the third place, the Ghetto House Glass Factory.

Here too, many boards to be sent to Japan are undergoing the lamination process.

Mayhem also told the factory staff to finish it quickly.

This is "LAYZ POTATO" with a glass deck surface.
This is the next step in the process of glassing the bottom surface.

Just before sunset, I met up with Chucky.

Sunset Beach is a beach break located just north of Huntington.

The waves are big enough, but because it's high tide the quality is thick.

Chucky has great take-off ability and is a fast paddler, so even when he started paddling and looked like he couldn't ride a wave, he always caught one and caught a lot of waves in a short amount of time.

Today I took photos until it got dark. You can see the lights of Long Beach offshore to the right.
So stay tuned for tomorrow's report!
