It's going so well, I'm on my third board! I finished the BLACK DART Black Carbon Edition premium custom board!

BLACK DART / Black Carbon Edition It's full carbon and looks great and cool! The inside is made of stringerless EPS foam, which makes it very soft. The material has a deep flex and the carbon covering quickly returns to its original shape, It instantly converts into a jumping speed, making it easy to gain speed! Nishii had test-ridden the other two models and they were in great condition, I followed up and quickly placed a custom order for the board, and it's now complete! The model is Nishii's "PARTY CRASHER," an easy-to-ride model for older men that is a good size! This is also great! Flexible and has great rebound, making it easy to get speed with this board technology! The board's bounce is similar to that of a "reuter board" used when jumping over a vaulting box, and it generates riding speed as it bounces on the waves! What's more, the board's weight is the lightest in LOST history, so it feels like you're flying or riding on a cloud. It glides effortlessly across the waves! BLACK DART / Black Carbon Edition The core is made of MARKO's stringerless EPS foam, and the board is made of original BLACK DART carbon woven with black carbon and S-cross, and is made using EPOXY resin.The board is placed in a vacuum bag and left to suction for about 48 hours, and is made using an advanced technique called vacuum glass, which presses the EPS foam and carbon cross together. BLACK DART carbon is vacuum glassed, It is firmly pressed onto the EPS foam, resulting in a lightweight board with a strong surface! Yet the ride is smooth and bouncy, allowing you to pick up speed quickly! The BLACK DART / Black Carbon Edition is a different ride than anything you've ever experienced before! What about the two models with the same Black Dart/Black Carbon Edition specifications that were completed recently? https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/75614/ Click here for "RAD RIPPER"! https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/76179/ "RNF'96" is here!

What does it feel like to convey to everyone how good the board bounces? It's like riding on the thing you use to jump over a vaulting box. I looked up what that was called and it turns out it's called a "Reuters board"! It bounces on the waves and creates riding speed! MARKO's stringerless EPS foam, Original BLACK DART carbon fiber with black carbon fiber and S-cross weave. Use EPOXY resin, put the board in a vacuum bag and leave it in a vacuum for about 48 hours.

This is a report on Chitose Point in Chiba South, FCS II, and LOST leash cord.

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. I've been using the FCSⅡ "MF-NEO CARBON/TRI" L size and "LOST HIGH PERFORMANCE Leash comp" that I purchased last week, so I'd like to share my impressions along with information about the waves that day. On this day, we went to Chitose Point, and when we arrived at the sea, the wind was blowing quite strongly, but perhaps because it was coming from the west, the conditions were not bad. (Two hours later, the wind direction changed and we were done.) The waves were chest to shoulder high and there weren't many of them, but they were a little thicker so I was able to get some action in both the right and left and enjoy a long ride, which was a lot of fun! This was my first time using the leash cord, so I was prepared for it to get tangled around my feet or to be stepped on when taking off, but there was no need to worry at all! The nylon material used on the ankle fits very well and is comfortable to wear without any discomfort. I was able to surf without any stress. It looks really cool when paired with a LOST surfboard. [ap_show_item 1738] How often do you replace your leash cord? Leash cords are a lifeline in a sense, so we recommend replacing them once a year. If the leash breaks while you're surfing, it will be a nuisance to you and those around you, and your surfboard may crash, costing you more to repair than the cost of the leash itself. This was my first time using the FCSⅡ "MF-NEO CARBON/TRI" L size, and my conclusion is that it's great! Until now, I had been hesitant to use large fins because I thought their weight and size would slow down my movements, but my worries were not at all. The reason I ended up buying it was because I was riding the LOST "SHORT ROUND II" BLACK DART and tried out the M size of the quads and various tris I usually use, but they didn't feel right at all, so I consulted with Pro Nishii. However, I was advised that the L size of "MF" would fit me, so I purchased it. LOST's "SHORT ROUND II" BLACK DART is 30.9cl, but due to the characteristics of the material, it is very light and has a flexible flex. The concept is a high-performance board with high buoyancy that can be ridden for short distances, but it moves around more than you'd expect given its 30.9cl, and to put it bluntly, it felt unstable. However, by switching to the FCS II "MF-NEO CARBON/TRI" L size, it holds firmly and adds rebound from the sticky drive, making it much more balanced. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=3&v=QnTIBVmDP2A&feature=emb_logo It all depends on the compatibility between the surfboard and fins, the wave conditions, and the rider's level and style, so I encourage everyone to give it a try. We will also introduce fins that go well with each LOST and Presebo model, so be sure to come and ask us at Love Surf! FCS II fins available here!

Thank you to everyone who came to our store and purchased so many new LOST surfboards!

Mr. A, The customer chose the LOST " DRIVER " PRO-FORMANCE specification. Although he currently mainly uses the "BABY BUGGY," he couldn't forget the fun and ease of riding of his previous favorite "DRIVER" model, and was thinking of ordering a custom one. Then, upon hearing that the new " DRIVER " stockboards with a new design and specifications had arrived, he rushed to our store and immediately decided on the "DRIVER PRO" 5'8. He said that the new stockboard size has slightly more buoyancy than before, so it will be usable in a wider range of conditions. Mr. B, He chose the LOST " SUPER DIABLO " BLACK DART model. He was currently practicing on a longer semi-gun-type board, but wanted to try a shorter, more nimble board. After doing a lot of research, he narrowed it down to the "SUPER DIABLO," which is short, has high buoyancy, and performs well in small waves. He was debating between POLY and BLACK DART, but chose the "BLACK DART" material, which is strong and durable, yet lightweight and flexible. Mr. C said, LOST " DRIVER" chose the special edition PRO-FORMANCE R-4C. He currently rides the BABY BUGGY CARBON WRAP a lot. He's also been riding more mid-volume models with more buoyancy recently, and was looking to go back to basics and ride a high-performance model for the first time in a while. The DRIVER arrived, and what's more, it was the perfect size for him, with a rare special edition channel, so he rushed over to our store. After careful consideration, he decided to go for the one and only special edition R-4C swallowtail, as it was a special occasion board. Mr. D, The customer chose the LOST " DRIVER " PRO-FORMANCE specification. After seeing the PRO-FORMANCE specifications published on the web, he became interested in the two models, SUB DRIVER and DRIVER, and came to our store.Since he is light in weight, the difference in volume has a big impact on the ride feel, so he took the time to pick up the actual models, compare them, and confirm the difference in feel with the V2-SB he currently uses before purchasing. Mr. E, LOST " PUDDLE FISH-JP " POLYESTER specification was selected. Recently, the waves at his home spot in Ibaraki Prefecture have been getting thicker and thicker. He recently purchased the RNF-REDUX Carbon Wrap, which he says is perfectly fine for riding, but he wanted a board that would be even more suitable for the thicker waves and give him even more fun. He consulted with Nishii on the online bulletin board, decided on a board, and then came to the store. Everyone! Come visit us! Thank you for purchasing so many new LOST surfboards!

Everyone! Thank you for coming to our store and purchasing so many new LOST surfboards!

Mr. A, He chose the LOST " POCKET ROCKET " POLYESTER FUSE CARBON PATCH. He is also a heavy Lost surfboard user, and uses the Spartan or Sub Driver depending on the wave quality. This time, he purchased the rumored "POCKET ROCKET," a model designed for a sharper, tighter ride, which has been ridden with top results by professional riders from other domestic manufacturers, for use in good waves. Mr. B, LOST " DOS-DIABLO " POLYESTER resin tint color was chosen. He started surfing with a large board with high buoyancy and mastered takeoff. He switched to the DOS-DIABLO when he was able to move sideways. He decided on the DOS-DIABLO, which combines stability and maneuverability, as it perfectly suited his needs. He said he wanted to practice turning at high speed with the DOS-DIABLO's high acceleration performance. With the DOS-DIABLO, he'll be able to ride lots of waves and practice, so do your best! Mr. C said, He chose LOST's " SUPER DIABLO " BLACK DART. He had been riding various boards from various brands, including Mayhem, but wanted to be able to easily catch waves even at crowded spots on weekends, so he came to our store specifically targeting the "SUPER DIABLO." After comparing the POLY and BLACK DART boards in the store, he ultimately chose the BLACK DART board, which seemed lighter, more flexible, and more durable and attractive. Mr. D, You chose the LOST " DIABLO SPARTAN " CARBON WRAP. I hadn't surfed in a few years, but a few months ago I made a comeback by riding a buoyant PLACEBO Goblin , which I adjusted to a moderate level of buoyancy. This size of this model is the most popular, and we can't keep up with production. CARBON WRAP stockboards are more affordable than custom orders, but because we only produce a limited number, if they're out of stock, please feel free to make a reservation or inquire about their arrival date! Mr. E, He chose LOST's " DIABLO SPARTAN " BLACK DART. This exquisite board was created by a collaboration between the LOST San Clemente factory and BLACK DART, a Florida-based company with two factories on the east and west coasts, and was painstakingly and time-consumingly crafted to order. The LOST and LUVSURF logos are also full of custom touches! Everyone! Thank you for coming to our store and purchasing so many new LOST surfboards!

Here's a report from San Clemente on the Lost Surfboard Factory!

The LAM mark sheet for the RNF-REDUX model, which LOST has started distributing to TEAM riders and has been receiving increasingly positive feedback. If you're talking about LOST riders, the ROUND NOSE FISH is a must-have model. In the shaping room, MAYHEM was shaping a custom-ordered board from Japan, the "CHOPPER" model. The red order card is attached to We have received from Japanese customers, Custom order boards and stock boards for Japan. The boards with the red order card attached are made for Japanese customers, and the cloth material is a high-grade specification that is specially made for Japan, and is different from that used in the US. Forms cut by the AKU machine are lined up. There were many order cards for "Bruce Irons" stuck inside. MAYHEM repeatedly checked Bruce Irons' board, which he had cut and was about to shape on the AKU machine, to make sure the cut was going well. He found a few he didn't like and called Andrew, the factory manager, to have them re-cut. Now you can see why MAYHEM boards, which make no compromises, feel so good no matter what you ride! I was shown the red order card before the foam was cut with the AKU machine, and it seems that today is the day when only the ``CARBON WRAP'' will be cut. This is the stringerless EPS foam from MARKO that's used in the LOST CARBON WRAP surfboard. When you think of EPS foam, you might imagine a rough, bumpy texture, but MARKO's EPS foam has a smooth, clean surface, unlike other companies' foams. It also has good flex and excellent strength, which is why LOST uses it in their LOST CARBON WRAP surfboards and BLACK DART . These boards have been wrapped and attached with carbon bands using CARBON WRAP. Imagine the extra flex in the tail area after the entire board has bent, giving you the speed you need to accelerate. This was an undercover report on the LOST Surfboard Factory in San Clemente.
