This is a summary report of the final day of the Yokohama Interstyle Exhibition "DAY3". P1100622 PLACEBO “CONQUEST EL-DIABLO” FLEXLITE-BOOST The two new sizes, 5'9" and 6'3", were also popular as they were never available before. The wing design on these two new sizes has been updated! The performance remains the same, but the appearance from the deck side has changed. P1140008 LOST's " BEAN BAG" is an amazing model that Nishii can confidently recommend to everyone, so I explained in detail how it's round and short and how it moves. P1140004 This is the LOST "BABY BUGGY," a high-performance standard beach break model that will represent LOST from now on. Its volume makes it a good fit for Japanese quality. It's a global model that's sure to become popular worldwide, so keep that in mind. It's also recommended for those who want to ride LOST from other brands. This is a standard model packed with MAYHEM's shaping knowledge. Nishii rides it, and it functions flawlessly and lets you surf any wave. If you're an average paddler, it's a good idea to choose a board one inch shorter than normal. P1130996 I also explained why the LOST "PUDDLE JUMPER-JP" uses a ROCKET tail. It's because it's tailored to Japanese waves and the size of the rider's feet. The rails are shorter to improve maneuverability, and the board is designed to make it easier to control the tail for Japanese riders with feet of around 25-27cm. IMG_2926 The LOST Carbon Wrap technology board has been getting a lot of press. The carbon lines are not just decorative to look good, but are wrapped around the board like this to optimally flex the stringerless EPS foam and convert it into speed. IMG_2927 The LOST "BLACK DART" surfboard was extremely popular due to its beautiful appearance and luxurious texture. IMG_2946 By combining techniques such as tint, opaque, and trash, you can create a unique custom board. Because of its excellent strength, it is the perfect material for classic models that you want to ride for a long time, such as the DIABLO series. IMG_2956 FU WAX was also on display at the exhibition, along with other Brazilian surf waxes. However, the surfers who make their living from surfing in the WCT and WQS don't use them. If a surf wax with performance superior to FU WAX were to appear, I'm sure Kelly, Dane, and other tour surfers would use it, but everyone still uses FU WAX, now and forever. I've seen many pro surfers sponsored by other surf waxes in Japan use FU WAX. It's also well-known in the USA that a certain popular surfer uses FU WAX. FU WAX's high performance is clearly noticeable when you use it: it doesn't melt, doesn't stick to wet surfaces, doesn't migrate, has long-lasting effects, and has excellent grip. Since you're already using it, you've experienced the difference for yourself! IMG_2953-3 Even so, the PLACEBO "GOBLIN" was the most popular model. If you want to experience sliding off the waves like on a longboard, then you should try this "GOBLIN"! PLACEBO "GOBLIN" FLEXLITE-BOOST /JPY138000+tax We are now accepting pre-orders for the first shipment arriving at the end of March!
