Thank you to everyone who came to our store and purchased so many new surfboards!
Mr. A, You chose PLACEBO "SHORT ROUND" FLEXLITE-BOOST. Mr. A, who is petite, chose the smallest size at 5'4". The ideal weight is 50-60kg, but the board itself is 26CL, so someone with a strong paddle could ride it up to 65kg! This HP model is recommended for people who don't like thick boards like the GOBLIN. Mr. B, You chose PLACEBO "SHORT ROUND" FLEXLITE-BOOST. Mr. B here also said that if the board is light and short, it moves easily. The smallest size of the short round, 5'4", was selected. Short rounds are popular! Mr. C said, LOST "BEAN BAG" POLYESTER was chosen. This resin-colored gray BEAN BAG model is a very popular color, and we have produced one stock board of each size. The rails are dark because the resin-colored glass layer has three layers, which makes the color darker due to its structure. Mr. C, this is your second BEAN BAG in a different size! Mr. D, LOST "SUB-BUGGY-JP" chose POLYESTER. He had been riding a DRIVER model until now, but due to weight gain he was looking for a board with a little more buoyancy, so he came to the store and looked at several recommended models. Among them, he liked the shape design of Nishii's magic model "SUB-BUGGY-JP" and purchased it. Mr. E, LOST "SUB-BUGGY-JP" chose POLYESTER. This board was custom made to order. The orange airbrush fades in a gradation from the rails to the stringers, giving it a bright impression. With a custom order, you can also choose the type and placement of the LOST, MAYAHEM, and Luvsurf logos! As the second project to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Love Surf, LOST Surfboard Custom Order Fair is currently being held. We are currently accepting custom orders with two bonuses! The special offer is valid until the end of March, so be sure to take advantage!

Mr. A, She chose LOST's "LAYZ POTATO" POLYESTER TINT COLOR. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/layz-potato A friend of his rides the same "LAYZ POTATO" model, and it looks like it's in great condition, so he's been wanting one for a while. He decided to buy it during our 20th anniversary sale, which is a great deal. He chose the 5'5" with a lower CL to prioritize maneuverability. Mr. B, LOST "CHOPPER" POLYESYER WHITE POLY PRO TAIL PATCH was chosen. Until now, he has been riding high-performance boards such as the "SUB-BUGGY-JP," but he was looking for a new board that looked and felt interesting. After watching videos of professional surfer Masato Yukawa, he became interested in the noseless board "CHOPPER," which has high buoyancy and allows for extreme action, and this time he will be riding the "CHOPPER 5'7." Mr. C said, PLACEBO "CONQUEST EL-DIABLO" FLEXLITE-CANDY was selected. He was currently borrowing a friend's board, but this time he came to the store to carefully consider which board would best suit his needs and physique. He has just mastered paddling and takeoff, so he chose the Placebo EL-DIABLO FLEXLITE-CANDY 6'2, which was perfect for his needs. He was very pleased, saying that it would definitely be a shortcut to his improvement. Mr. D, You chose PLACEBO "TITAN" FLEXLITE-BOOST. He currently rides a PLACEBO V3-ROCKET , but has recently gotten leaner and is looking to switch to a more powerful model, which is why he chose the TITAN. He was debating between the BOOST and CANDY LIMITED, but ultimately chose the quicker, high-performance split carbon BOOST. Mr. E, LOST "SUB BUGGY-JP" POLYESYER was chosen. He rides the "BEAN BAG" and " LAYZ POTATO," but purchased this board to ride when the waves are bigger and the quality of the waves is better. He understands that you need to use different boards depending on the wave quality! The board's color is also very cool, with the Concept AIR brush included! Thank you to everyone who came to our store and purchased so many new surfboards!

Mr. A, PLACEBO "CONQUEST EL-DIABLO" FLEXLITE-BOOST. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015 The CONQUEST EL-DIABLO model is a complete redesign of the TABLET2 model. It first arrived in Japan in March 2015, so it's only been around for about a year. The board is made of patented split carbon, which creates the ultimate bounce and speed. Mr. B, PLACEBO "CONQUEST EL-DIABLO" FLEXLITE-BOOST. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015 The sale started around the same time he came to pick up his custom-ordered wetsuit. The sale included a brand new stockboard with FCS2 fins, and he had always wanted to try out the CONQUEST EL-DIABLO, so he took advantage of this special offer. Mr. C said, LOST's "DOS-DIABLO" is made of POLYESTER material. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/dos-diablo/dos-diablo He is a heavy user of the new LOST model and is currently waiting for several custom orders for the new model. As you can see, this board was made to order. Only TEAM riders and those who order from Japan can have the LOST TEAM LAM mark on the top of the nose. It cannot be added to custom orders from other countries. We hope you will also place a custom order to have the LOST TEAM LAM mark added! Mr. D, LOST "SUB-DRIVER-JP" XTR-3D CARBOLIC material was selected. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/sub-driver-jp This board was custom made to order. He had previously used the same board made of this material and loved it, so he ordered the exact same model, size, and material. He was also considering the new XTR-FX, but he really wanted the same board. Mr. E, He chose the LOST "BABY BUGGY" CARBON WRAP. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/baby-buggy/baby-buggy LOST's new high-performance material "CARBON WRAP" has finally arrived! We only have a few boards available so far, but we recently sent a custom-ordered board to an authorized LOST dealer, so you'll probably see someone riding one of these in the ocean somewhere in Japan! The EPS core makes it lightweight, and the X-Cross and epoxy resin construction make it a super high-performance board! Thank you to everyone who came to our store and purchased so many new surfboards!

Mr. A, LOST "DOS-DIABLO" POLYESTER was chosen. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/dos-diablo/dos-diablo When he came to our store to ask for advice on choosing a board, we recommended the DOS-DIABLO. He had carefully considered which front and rear size would be best for him. You can choose the board size that best suits your needs, so you can ride lots of waves and be satisfied every time! Mr. B, He chose LOST's "LAYZ-POTATO" POLYESTER. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/layz-potato He chose the longer "LAYZ-POTATO" board, which allows him to ride the bigger waves at his favorite surf spot in Ishigaki Island. The driver of the orange limousine bus said he only thinks about his board and surfing while driving. Mr. C said, He chose LOST's "BABY BUGGY" POLYESTER. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/baby-buggy/baby-buggy Look at the shape of the tail of this board! It's a double wing swallow! This Double Wing Swallow is a custom-ordered board that I've been riding well on, so they installed it on their latest model, the "BABY BUGGY." It looks really cool, It looked fast and in good condition. It was so good I wanted to make it into a new model! Mr. D, He chose LOST's "CRAZY-POTATO" POLYESTER. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/crazy-potato/crazy-potato We have had many customers ride LOST boards, but this time, we had a customer come to our store. He looked carefully at several sizes before choosing one. It was a model he had wanted for a while, and it had a good CL value, so he was looking forward to riding it for the first time. Mr. E, He chose LOST's "BEAN BAG" in POLYESTER RESIN TINT COLOR. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/bean-bag/bean-bag When he happened to bump into Nishii at the beach at the beginning of the year, he saw him riding his all-black "BEAN BAG" model, which Nishii always rides, and riding it well even in small waves. He said, "I want one!" and bought it. It's a cool grey resin tint board! Thank you to everyone who came to our store and purchased so many new LOST surfboards!

I'm Luvsurf PRO rider Masato Yukawa. This is a photo from a long time ago, but I'd like to share it with you all. The boards are the LOST 5'10" 'JW-DRIVER' POLYESTER and the LOST 7'4" 'GUN' POLYESTER. The 7'4" 'GUN' is the board I was waiting for in the BIG WAVE contest in Shonan. I was invited as an invited competitor so I had it shaped at short notice. The 5'10" 'JW-DRIVER' is a board that had its rails painted black at the last CALIFORNIA contest. We are accepting custom orders for the 'JW-DRIVER' ! I'm Luvsurf AM rider Hiroki Shirakawa. This board was ordered directly from Mayhem after we surfed together when he visited Japan last September. It's based on the "DOS-DIABLO," a custom-made board in a thinner, more maneuverable size that's currently in stock. It's recommended for those who don't need the same buoyancy (CL value) as the standard sizes. This size has been custom-ordered by many people and has proven very popular, so this size will be renamed the "DIABLO-SPARTAN" and will be available as a stock board in 2016. The new "Diablo-Spartan" is recommended for those who don't need the buoyancy of the "DOS-DIABLO" but want more buoyancy than the "SUB-DRIVER-JP ." It's a hotly anticipated model for 2016! Mr. A, LOST's "SUB-DRIVER-JP" chose POLYESTER. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/sub-driver-jp He had been riding boards he'd bought overseas, but when he saw surfers out at the beach riding Japan-exclusive models from LOST and PLACEBO, who were catching more waves than him and seemed to be having more fun, he became interested and started looking at our website. He decided that this was the one for him , the SUB-DRIVER-JP, so he came to our store, compared the two sizes, and after consulting with us, he purchased it. Mr. B, He chose LOST's "LAYZ-POTATO" POLYESTER. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/layz-potato He usually gets his boards made by a local Japanese shaper, but he happened to see a review of someone riding this model on a website and became interested. He owns several boards, but this "LAYZ-POTATO" is a different type from the other boards he owns, which have a pointed nose and rocker, so he decided to buy it. Mr. C said, PLACEBO "CONQUEST EL-DIABLO" FLEXLITE-BOOST was selected. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015 He came to the store to look at the boards on sale, but after seeing the actual CONQUEST EL-DIABLO, which was released in March 2015 and remains the most popular model in 2016, he was immediately drawn to the new and highly functional PLACEBO CONQUEST EL-DIABLO , and purchased it to enjoy surfing even more. Mr. D, LOST "DOS-DIABLO" BLACK DART was selected. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/dos-diablo/dos-diablo The LOST "BLACK DART" is only available through custom order, and although it was recently listed on the website as a ready-to-ride board, Mr. D immediately pre-ordered it and purchased it. Shaped in San Clemente, California, and glassed and completed at the "BLACK DART" factory in Florida, this super high-end surfboard is one of a kind, made with a lavish amount of time and effort. Thank you everyone for coming to our store and purchasing so many new boards!!

Mr. A, LOST 5'10" chose the V2-SB POLYESTER . http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/v2-sb I've been feeling the lack of buoyancy in the point nose boards I've been using when the waves are big, so He had been interested in a board for a while and it was on sale, so he came to our store and bought it. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/store/category/item/itemgenre/sale-corner/lostsale/ This model is currently on sale and is a great bargain! Mr. B, LOST 5'3" chose "SHORT ROUND" POLYESTER . http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/short-round/short-round I was comparing it with other LOST boards available for purchase second-hand, and found that they were all similarly priced. He decided that if he could get a new board, this would be it, and purchased this SHORT ROUND model, which is great for riding briskly in small waves. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/store/category/item/itemgenre/sale-corner/lostsale/ This "SHORT ROUND" model is currently on sale! Be sure to consider purchasing it soon! Mr. C said, PLACEBO 5'10" CONQUEST EL-DIABLO FLEXLITE-CANDY was selected. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015 He is a veteran surfer with a long history, and currently rides the same PLACEBO RNF-EVO model. His surfing has improved so much that he wanted a board with better movement and easier paddling, so he came to our shop to ask for advice. He has tried many different boards at many different shops, but he really likes the PLACEBO's easy-to-ride performance and strength. Mr. D, PLACEBO 6'0" CONQUEST EL-DIABLO FLEXLITE-BOOST was selected. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015 The CONQUEST EL-DIABLO is Presebo's best-selling model of 2015, and will continue to be available in 2016. The customer switched from a 6'2" TABLET2 and wanted something lighter and easier to insert the rails. This model is sure to be the number one choice for those switching from the previous model, the tablet model, in 2016. If you're using a TABLET2, be sure to try out the CONQUEST EL-DIABLO, which uses the same concept but with improved performance and strength! Mr. E, LOST 5'9" SUB BUGGY-JP BLACK DART . http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/sub-driver-jp He regularly custom orders LOST surfboards using high-performance new materials. This time, the customer once again ordered the "BLACK DART" material, which has the most luxurious texture and can be customized to their liking. We are currently accepting custom orders for BLACK DART, with delivery times of approximately four months. Everyone! Lots of new boards available in store! Thank you for your purchase!

Mr. A, PLACEBO 5'8" CONQUEST EL-DIABLO FLEXLITE-BOOST was selected. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015 Since he was switching from the same moldboard manufacturer, he was surprised that the Presebo was lighter. He also considered CANDY, but chose BOOST for its better response. Mr. B, Placebo 6'2" "NEW RIPQUEST" FLEXLITE-TURBO was selected. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/placebo/new-ripquest/new-ripquest He was switching from a longboard to a shortboard and came to our shop looking for a board that would be as easy to transition to as possible and fit his budget. Mr. C said, Placebo 6'4" chose the TABLET II FLEXLITE-TURBO. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/placebo/tablet-ii He currently rides a 6'4" fun-type board, but has begun to feel a weight when paddling, dolphin-ing, taking off, and riding, so he came to our store to consider the TABLET II, which makes it easier to move from paddling to riding. Mr. D, PLACEBO 5'5" V3-ROCKET FLEXLITE-BOOST was selected. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/placebo2015/v3rocket/v3rocket He was riding a 5'7" V3-ROCKET, which is one size larger than the same model. He was feeling good and came to our shop asking if he wanted to ride with less buoyancy. Mr. E, He chose the LOST 5'9" DOS-DIABLO BLACK DART. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/dos-diablo/dos-diablo This Black Dart was, of course, a custom order. The board color was white and dark green, which made the heavy BLACK DART material stand out even more. The customer was very pleased that it was lighter than it looked. Thank you to everyone who came to our store and purchased many new surfboards in 2015!

Everyone! Please come visit us! Thank you for purchasing so many new LOST surfboards! Mr. A, LOST "SUB-DRIVER" POLYESTER White Poly Pro Tail Patch was selected. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/sub-driver This is a custom-made board with a beautiful gradient color design that he himself had created. The model is quite old among LOST's models, but it is the "SUB-DRIVER" model, a classic that is still ridden by pros and is the basis for almost all high-performance models available today! Mr. B, He chose LOST's "BABY BUGGY" POLYESTER. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/24sblog/?p=33615 With around 30 years of surfing experience, he has ridden boards from famous shapers around the world, but he started riding Mayhem boards a few years ago and is a heavy user of LOST surfboards, saying that Mayhem shapes are currently the best in the world. He had been enjoying his Sub-Driver and Beach Buggy boards up until then, so he consulted Mayhem directly about this board, which he had always wanted to ride, and Mayhem recommended the new 2016 model, the Baby Buggy. Mr. C said, He chose LOST's "LAYZ POTATO" BLACK DART. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/layz-potato He custom ordered the model that suited him best to date in BLACK DART. At a glance, you can tell by the heavy feel of the BLACK DART and the cool look that you've never seen before. You can also tell right away that it's a custom-ordered board by the tail shape specified as a Baby Swallow. When Mayhem came to Japan to take the order, they adjusted it to provide good control response even at high speeds, which is unique to the combination of this material and this model. It's a one-of-a-kind masterpiece! Mr. D, He chose LOST's "DOS-DIABLO" BLACK DART. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/dos-diablo/dos-diablo Mayhem was introduced in September during his visit to Japan using the new "BLACK DART" material, which boasts excellent performance and strength. The model is the thin "DOS-DIABLO," which has a low CL value. POLY is currently unable to keep up with production of this thin size, and the feedback from riders has been so positive that it makes you wonder if it should be named as a separate model from the "DOS-DIABLO"! The use of the BLACK DART color is also cool! Mr. E, He chose LOST's "PUDDLE JUMPER" in BLACK DART. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/24sblog/?cat=113&paged=3 This is also obvious at a glance! This is a one-of-a-kind custom-order board from BLACK DART. As we introduced in our blog the other day, this faded color scheme is called trash. Leave it to our shop, Luvsurf, a leader in the Japanese surfboard scene, to create such a cool board! Thank you to everyone who came to our store and purchased so many new LOST surfboards!
