Check out this photo of Nishii riding the
RNF-RETRO model. Recently, in the southern Chiba area, on the days Nishii surfs, there have been continuous swells from the north and east, so there are a lot of waves to the left, which naturally means he's doing a lot of backside riding. The backside RNF-RETRO model is in great condition!
Considering that Mason Ho was recently seen riding big waves on the backside at Pipeline in Hawaii on this RNF-RETRO model, it's safe to say that this model can be ridden almost anywhere in Japan, where the wave size and quality are slightly larger than usual.
The standard FISH board designs that are being released one after another by other domestic and international brands to jump on the trend have twin fins, and we're starting to hear complaints that they are actually difficult to ride, but LOST's ``RNF-RETRO'' model can be ridden with a QUAD fin setting, so it's designed to be easy to ride without wobbling, not being too loose, and having drive.
This is the widest board in the RNF series, a trusted design that LOST has been developing for over 20 years, so it is extremely stable, but contrary to its appearance, it is also very agile, which is why it is called a ``wolf in sheep's clothing''!
These photos were taken last Friday.
The photographer was Div Yamatani, who has joined Luvsurf as an official photographer.
The combination of the flexible cork material of "RNF-RETRO" and "C4" matches very well, so
I highly recommend it to everyone! The C4 cork + epoxy deck surface is very durable!
