This is cutting edge technology! You can see and touch the HYDROFLEX-EFC board at Love Surf.

This is cutting edge technology! You can see and touch the "HYDROFLEX-EXTRUDED FLEX CORE" (commonly known as EFC) board at Love Surf. Recently, we have been displaying Nishii's two personal boards, the 5'7" CONQUEST-EL-DIABLO and the 5'2" SHORT ROUND, at our Love Surf store so that you can easily pick them up. Everyone who picks it up is amazed at how light it is. This board is incredibly light, like the boards used by WCT pros, with a flex even softer than POLY, and resilient strength that won't break or break even when ridden bottom-up. It's garnering rave reviews, so please come and see it for yourself! Many customers who have actually tried this board have custom-ordered it in their ideal model and size! Seeing it in person is a thrill, and it's a board that everyone will want to ride! It offers incredible flex, even more than POLY, and is crafted using a unique vacuum glassing method developed in Germany called Hydro 3D Glass. Countless small holes are drilled into the 100% waterproof foam (blank), allowing epoxy resin to penetrate deep into the foam like roots. "The foam and glass are integrated, so there's no need to worry about peeling," says Richie, president of Hydroflex. Nishii, Shaw, and Masato have all ridden EFC boards without any peeling or even footprints. There's not even a chin mark on the nose deck. But it's supple! The surface is so strong that the WHITE POLY PRO tail patch on the board is not needed. Since you will be riding it for a long time, we recommend adding resin stain color to prevent the yellowing of the epoxy resin from being noticeable. This is the clear part of the 5'7" CONQUEST-EL-DIABLO. The stringer is made of just one piece of thin black wood, which is also one of the secrets to its flexible structure. Here, the gray is used as a translucent resin tint color to make the yellowing less noticeable. Nishii recommends the white resin tint color. Up to three colors can be applied to the entire board for 20,000 yen (excluding tax). These two boards are always on display, so please come and take a look at these cutting-edge boards - Nishii's personal boards, the 5'7" CONQUEST-EL-DIABLO and the 5'2" SHORT ROUND. For now, the HYDROFLEX-EFC is only available for custom orders. It currently takes about four months from the time an order is placed until completion, and the price is the same as the XTR-FX. Please come to the store and take a look at this ultra-cutting edge surfboard. For customers who live far away and cannot visit the store, custom orders can also be placed by phone at 03.3732.5532 or via the inquiry email form, so please consider it. EFC is lightweight, making it the perfect material for thick, large, uncle models. Above all, it feels great to ride, so Nishii recommends it with confidence! * Posted by Luvsurf .

Check out our new board material, 100% waterproof "HYDRO FLEX/EFC" boards.

Today I went to LOST, where LOST surfboards are stored. We have picked out two personal boards and would like to introduce them to you. 5'2”『SHORT ROUND』HYDRO FLEX/EFC 5'7” “CONQUEST EL-DIABLO” HYDRO FLEX/EFC This "HYDRO FLEX/EFC" is equipped with an extremely thin center stringer. The interior is made of a new material called closed shell foam, making it 100% waterproof. Until now, HYDRO FLEX only had EPS and regular PU foam that absorbed water. HYDRO FLEX is a waterproof foam that is soft and flexible, and I want a board that actually feels good to ride. If you're following this blog, you probably already know this, This is a HYDRO FLEX board that has been developed in collaboration with HYDRO FLEX for the past three years and is sold exclusively in Japan. It is extremely light and much lighter than the boards used by WCT surfers. And yet, it is so hard to make dents that it can be said that they do not form any. Furthermore, the board has been finished with an unprecedented feature that prevents peeling with a 99% accuracy. Of course, the fact that it rides well is guaranteed by Nishii, Masato and SHAW, who were in charge of the test rides. Even when looking at a SHAW test board power surfing, there is no dent in the stance, it is so strong. At the same time, it flexes smoothly, so the ride feels just as Japanese people would like it. Nishii didn't even have a dent in the board he rode today, and Masato is currently riding a lot in typhoons in Japan. Yellow/SUB-BUGGY doesn't have a single dent. What kind of board is this? We do not accept stock board requests so that those who place custom orders can get on board quickly. We only reserve production slots for custom orders so that the board can be completed in about three months after the order is placed. The price of the clear board is the same as each model "XTR-FX". Please consider custom ordering your favorite model in the best size. Posted by Luvsurf .

We have received feedback from users who purchased the LOST "LAYZ-POTATO" model!

We have received feedback from users who have purchased "LAYZ-POTATO," so we would like to share it with you. During the busy weekend peak hours, I heard someone mutter, "I can't get on if that person is there." When he said that, I felt like I was Nishii-san. We have received feedback from LAYZ-POTATO users saying, Get yourself a copy of LAYZ-POTATO and ride the wave of the crowded weekend sets. And just now, another customer who had just purchased ``LAYZ-POTATO'' called us excitedly from the car on their way back from the beach. "LAYZ-POTATO" is awesome! It's only my second time, but I'm starting to understand how amazing this board is! I was able to go wherever I wanted, and Long and I were the only ones riding on the outside. There were some pros there, but everyone else was only riding on the inside. If you paddle with your body weight more forward than usual, you will paddle faster even when not taking off! Everyone asked me what I was riding and it was hard to explain. The PROs were fascinated by the tail wing and bottom vee. Today, I rode the LAYZ-POTATO from morning until evening. In the sections where the waves are about to close or where you might get left behind, I was able to break away at a speed I had never experienced before and ride all the way to the inside. Nishii-san, there's a scene in J-BAY or Trestle where a dolphin looks like it's riding the waves comfortably without doing anything, and I felt like I was that dolphin. That's why I decided to call my LAYZ-POTATO "Iruka-chan." So I'm glad that you liked the board so much that you even gave it your own nickname. If you were to get your hands on a Layz-Potato, what would you call it? It would also be nice to match the resin color with a "kappa" look like Nishii's board. A beautiful resin color design board from LOST's "LAYZ-POTATO" model has arrived! Mayhem designed this for the Japanese wave, prioritizing driving rather than maneuverability. This Lay's Potato model is a limited edition model sold in Japan. You can surf even the biggest waves with just this one board. It can handle waves up to head size, so it's sufficient for normal use. That's right. The resin layer of a resin-colored board is thicker than that of the same clear board. It has a strong and durable finish. It also features the latest FCSII fin system! Here is a list of the boards! There are also clear versions! http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/store/category/item/itemgenre/lost_board/layz-potato-polyester/ We've got some board sizes that were sold out back in stock, so don't miss out!! * Posted by Luvsurf .
