Learn moreNew size 6'6" now in stock! Fluttering! "SMOOTH OPERATOR"!!
We received a lot of requests from our customers! LOST's first mid-length model! The 6'6" size of the "SMOOTH OPERATOR" is now in stock for the first time! And!! We now have the popular size 6'2" and the previously sold out 6'4" in stock! With the coming winter of heavy equipment, "SMOOTH OPERATOR" You can enjoy everything from small waves to big waves! Nishii's first shipment of 6'2" size shoes sold out immediately, I actually wanted a 6'2" but I'm riding the 6'4" size. I thought it might be big, but... https://www.instagram.com/p/BzaYagIDKpQ/ It moves smoothly and smoothly like this, and I can ride it without any problems! The SMOOTH OPERATOR works well in both powerless small waves and powerful overhead surf. Nishii's M size QUAD setting works well and I recommend it to everyone! You can enjoy it on any wave, from waves that break loosely and don't have a shoulder, to deep waves, beach breaks, and reef breaks. You can choose from a variety of fin settings, including single, quad, and tri, as well as twin stabilizer and single twin stabilizer, depending on the wave quality and your preferences. I often see Uncle Mayhem riding it too! The SMOOTH OPRATOR uses a special lightweight foam, making it quite light considering its length. Furthermore, the stringers get thinner as you go towards the tail, so the nose area is strong, and when you put weight on your front foot it accelerates, and when you push down on the tail it flexes, improving rotational performance. This "SMOOTH OPERATOR" model is a model in a category that Lost has never had before. Knee-high waves, which only a longboard can handle, can sometimes be difficult to handle even with a short, thick fishboard designed for small waves.MAYHEM himself became interested in developing this board because he wanted to be able to enjoy riding the waves in small waves without being outdone by a longboard. This falls into the mid-length surfboard category. It's not a longboard, shortboard, or fishboard, and Lost Surfboards has never designed a model in this category before. MAYHEM started surfing with his four children and wanted to surf with them at spots with small waves where they could surf safely, so he became interested in this category of board and was able to design it. https://vimeo.com/329760941 The "SMOOTH OPERATOR" is recommended for surfers, both male and female, who want to catch a wave and ride it to the end. Because of its length, this board doesn't require much paddling power and doesn't tire your arms much. Once you take off, you can surf smoothly and ride the wave to the very end. It's designed for style-focused, smooth surfing without the need for excessive movement. That's why MAYHEM named Lost's first mid-length model "Smooth Operator."

Learn moreWhat board will you ride in strong winds offshore, crowded conditions, and a full moon with a spring tide?
Yesterday, December 12th, was the Cold Moon, the day when we could see the last full moon of the Reiwa era. That's right! If you have knowledge of the ocean, you'll know that on full moon days, the ocean gets deeper and spring tides occur. Yesterday's wave conditions were even stronger offshore, with a lot of current and thick waves. The weather was nice and the place was crowded. What kind of surfboard would you ride on in a situation like that? Competition boards with low buoyancy and point noses Riding a surfboard made lightly with EPS foam is a bad choice. A board that is large, long, heavy, and drops downwards is suitable. We recommend this board, LOST "SMOOTH OPERATOR" resin tint color. Take off without paddling, Just like the model name, it allows you to smoothly ride the waves. So that you can see the performance of LOST's "SMOOTH OPERATOR" , I just posted it on Nishii's Instagram, so please take a look. https://www.instagram.com/p/B5_YHbsnlkZ/ Those who spend a long time floating on a board with little buoyancy, There are many people who only ride one board regardless of the wave quality because they are used to riding it, but I will tell you that it is necessary to take several surfboards to the ocean and ride them according to the wave conditions at the time. Buoyancy is your friend! The dimensions of the board of "SMOOTH OPERATOR" that Nishii had loaded in his car in anticipation of the wave quality on this day were as follows: This is a stock board 6'4"/36.5cl that I chose from the store's board rack. If you have a board like the "SMOOTH OPERATOR" Please try this out as you can select only the good waves from the outer peaks that no one else can ride and enjoy riding them all the way to the inside.
