Only a few left! "SMOOTH OPERATOR" BLACK SHEEP BUILT MADE IN USA Bottom color 6'2" available!

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. We are pleased to announce that we only have a few bottom colors left of the extremely popular model "SMOOTH OPERATOR" BLACK SHEEP BUILT MADE IN USA! Speaking of the "SMOOTH OPERATOR," it is a model that "MAYHEM" created for himself and is his favorite, using it in everything from small conditions at his home point to special reef breaks overseas! Japanese users have also been using the "SMOOTH OPERATOR" and have given us lots of great feedback, such as "Surfing is fun again!" and "My surfing level has improved!" The SMOOTH OPERATOR has been released in a variety of materials, including POLYESTER, DOUBLE DART, BLACK SHEEP BUILT, and DURA-FLEX, but they are all very popular and I think they are the hardest surfboards to get hold of in Japan right now. The SMOOTH OPERATOR has the length and buoyancy to easily catch waves and operate smoothly all the way to the inside, and in a good way, you don't even notice the length or buoyancy, making it extremely easy to operate! https://www.instagram.com/reel/C64qaJOSzDN/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== The SMOOTH OPERATOR is perfectly suited to the needs of older surfers, who make up the majority of Japan's current surfing population.It is a performance mid-length board for greedy surfers who want easy paddling that won't tire them out, and still want to get some action even on a longer surfboard.

The model page for the new fishboard "PISCES," an evolution of the RNF'96, has been released! Two boards are available for immediate delivery!

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. The second new model for 2024! The new fish board "PISCES", which has evolved from RNF'96, is now available! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=riKQyGZYVN8&list=TLGG8Ex-b5zfwMYyMTA1MjAyNA The ultimate all-round model, the RNF'96, is a well-known masterpiece, and I'm sure many of the users checking out this blog are fans of it! I am one of those who loves it. You must be very curious about the new fish board that has evolved from the RNF'96. Unlike the RNF'96, which has a 3-fin setting, this board uses 5-fins, allowing you to change the fin setting to 2+1, 2+2, quad, or thruster depending on the wave conditions and the surfer's preferences. By adding a wing and strengthening the nose rocker, performance has been improved! The slightly wider and thinner nose improves rotation, making it easier to carve at the bottom and improving maneuverability in the pocket! [ap_show_item 352848] [ap_show_item 352829] The ever-evolving LOST Surfboards has finally released the new performance fish model "PISCES," which is a must-have model for surfers who love the "RNF'96." This is a rare surfboard with only two units available in Japan so far, so be sure to check it out! For an explanation of the "PISCES" model, click here!

The hottest new model for 2024, "THE RIPPER"! We have received some impressions from customers who have purchased it, so we would like to introduce them to you!

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. The new model that everyone is most interested in in 2024 is "THE RIPPER." "THE RIPPER" is based on the best-selling "RAD RIPPER," which is user-friendly and can be used all-around regardless of rider or wave conditions, and is designed to allow for more aggressive surfing! The customer who purchased "THE RIPPER" wanted to ride a performance model for the first time in a while, so he chose "THE RIPPER." Apparently, the first time they went down, they spent four hours in the water at Sunrise Point. On the day, there was a slight chest-high wind and the conditions were rough. It had been a while since he last rode a performance model, but he said it was easy to handle and able to maintain speed and perform nimble actions even in powerless waves, which made it a lot of fun, and he gave high praise to ``THE RIPPER''! [ap_show_item 63008] [ap_show_item 63010] [ap_show_item 62986] [ap_show_item 62984] I own both M and L sizes of MAYHEM signature fins, but for THE RIPPER's first fin setting, I used the L size MB, so please take a look! He says he'll be trying out various fin settings in the future! For a description of the "THE RIPPER" model, click here!
