Today, about 100 people from all over Japan gathered at Murasaki Sports at Nakazato Beach in Chiba Prefecture.
I went to a test ride workshop with a surfboard sales representative.
There are a total of 48 "LOST" and "Placebo" surfboards available for test rides!
The waves were onshore, waist-chest high, and there were plenty of them, so everyone was having fun riding them.
The 2014 new model "NEW RIP QUEST" was being ridden by many people for the first time,
It was highly rated and was the most popular model for test drives.
The "V2-SB" model is also very popular, with many people wanting to try it at least once.
"SHORT ROUND" model in quad,
Masato was in top form, landing four air reverses in the short time of the morning session.
Akira Nakaura, a new professional golfer who has just joined the FU WAX team, was also at the venue.
Mr. Sugaya, the manager of the Chigasaki store,
Apparently, the item he's looking for today is the "SHORT ROUND" model.
We know the true benefits of FU WAX and how it differs from other waxes, so please come and hear about its benefits.
Masato carefully explains the test ride boards and recommends boards.
The famous Kappaboard was also a popular test ride.
We also had the V2-SB Hydroflex ride the limited edition CONQUEST EL-DIABLO airbrush board.
"SHORT ROUND" was the center of attention.
The person who was skillfully riding it was Mr. Sugiyama from the Chigasaki store.
If you're in the area, please come and hear our test drive impressions.
As expected, everyone has a smile on their face after test riding Kappaboard's "LAYZ POTATO" model.
He used FU WAX on his recent trip to Tahiti and shared with us his delightful feedback that "I didn't slip even once."
Professional golfer Tatsuya Fukagawa took a test ride on the new RIPQUEST.
The "COUCH POTATO" model was also ridden by many mini board enthusiasts.
Professional surfer Hiroto Arai from the FU WAX team also came to the venue to surf.
Mr. Obama from the Fujisawa store is tall, but he is 5'2" and can skillfully maneuver the "SHORT ROUND" to the inside.
It was a long ride.
The new size of 5'4" is also popular among those within the ideal weight range.
This is the new 6'0" size "FISQUEST II" which was a popular choice with heavier riders fighting over it.
We received a lot of feedback about the LAYZ POTATO model, with people saying it was "easy to ride."
"CONQUEST EL-DIABLO" is "big and thick, but it moves!"
Everyone who has actually ridden it will tell you.
The "BEACH BUGGY" model was also ridden by many people who love high performance boards.
The 5'5" V3-ROCKET model is a new size, so those who fit the size were sure to take it for a test ride.
They also studied the differences in board designs, looking at, touching, and comparing them with great enthusiasm.
Resin-colored boards are beautiful, so it's nice to have them.
Even though there were 48 test boards, about 100 people helped us pack them up.
The cleanup is complete in no time.
Somehow the rain ended as a light drizzle.
Thank you to all the surf sales staff, professional riders, and other manufacturers who participated today!
