He heard rumors about the LOST "EFC by HydroFlex" board and came to interview us.

Today, Surfing Life magazine He heard about the EFC by HydroFlex board and came to interview us. With the photographer Kuma-san Yonecchi is checking the photos he's taking on his iPad. EFC by HydroFlex board user, Uehara was the representative for the interview. "EFC by HydroFlex" is This is a board developed by Love Surf in collaboration with LOST for the Japanese market. Please see below for a more detailed explanation. Made with HF epoxy resin, E.FC foam, custom flex wooden stringers, and 3D vacuum glass. Previous HydroFlex boards were only available in water-absorbing EPS or standard poly foam, but the new board is a completely waterproof, flexible, and flexible foam developed for the Japanese market. LOST and HydroFlex collaborated to create a board that's perfect for riding. This board is sold exclusively in LOST Japan. The three great things about EFC by HydroFlex are its strength, performance and waterproofness. The advantage of EFC by HydroFlex 3D vacuum glass is that it is very strong. Hydro 3D Glass is a special vacuum developed in Germany that cannot be imitated anywhere else. It is made using the glass construction method. Countless small holes are drilled into the 100% waterproof foam (blanks), and epoxy resin penetrates deep into the foam like roots. Richie, the CEO of Hydroflex, says, "The foam and glass are integrated, so there's no need to worry about peeling." It doesn't even leave foot marks easily, and chin marks on the nose deck are also very unlikely. However, the board feels flexible to ride. Another advantage, in addition to its strength for long-term riding, is that its flex performance remains almost constant. POLY boards don't easily dent. It is also very resistant to shocks. You can see how much stronger it is when I say it has a stronger surface than a pre-cut board. The 100% waterproof HYDROFLEX-EFC board's foam doesn't absorb water, so you can ride it for years, still feeling as light as when you bought it. The HYDROFLEX-EFC board's ride is easy and supple, as the board flexes as it's pushed into the wave, with a smoother flex than a POLY board, allowing for greater turn extension. It's comparable in weight to the Polyester boards used by WCT-level pros, and HYDROFLEX claims it's strong enough that there's no risk of peeling during normal use. The ride of a HYDROFLEX-EFC board is top-notch. Equipped with a high-performance suspension and an engine that accelerates with a well-balanced power-to-weight ratio, surfing feels like riding a luxury supercar, with excellent safety. "Flex" explanatory video http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/24sblog/?p=28745 "EFC Waterproof Foam" explanatory video http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/24sblog/?p=28893 "3D Vacuum Glass" explanatory video http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/24sblog/?p=28893 "Impact resistance" explanatory video http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/24sblog/?p=29029 Epoxy resin is said to be prone to yellowing, but with "EFC by HydroFlex" you can create any color you like. This is mixed into epoxy resin and then 3D vacuum glassed, resulting in an epoxy resin stained color board, so the yellowing of the resin layer is not noticeable and you can ride the board in a clean condition for a long time. "EFC" by HydroFlex boards are made to order only. Please consider ordering a custom board for your favorite model from "EFC by HydroFlex." These boards are long-lasting and have a high resale value, so although they are expensive, they are recommended for senior surfers who can afford them. Please see this page for information on how to apply for a custom order. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/board/custom_order.html We also list the colors and types of marks that can be used on the board, so please take a look.

We apologize for the long wait! The previously sold-out COLD wax is now in stock! (FU WAX, of course)

We apologize for the long wait everyone! The sold out COLD is now in stock! ( FU WAX , of course) Be sure to stock up for this winter before they sell out! (And to all the dealers!) Before the Brazilian Carnival begins, It was all handmade and carefully made with time and effort. In the middle is Fuad, also known as FU. He is a serious surfer, participating in the WCT and WQS, including Kelly Slater. People always use FU WAX . The square package was made by FU when he moved to California. It's a little different from the round ones from Brazil. The products made in the original Brazilian workshop with the correct materials and tools perform better. FU has also publicly stated this. Here is a photo of the board after Nishii painted the base. The appropriate amount to apply for the base is about 1/4 to 1/3. It's okay to apply a very thin layer on top. Is this okay? It's thin enough. Which season are you using now? We are now accepting user feedback for FU WAX. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/voices/modelname/fu-wax We look forward to receiving your submissions!
