Kolohe has a double page in the April issue of SURFIN'LIFE, and Nishii too!
Have you seen the April issue of SURFIN'LIFE yet? It's a play board and a competition board, Kolohe is featured on a double page spread. Introducing Scorcher and SUB-SCORCHER! It's a double-page spread, so there's a lot of text and it's well worth reading. However, there are some mistakes in the published text. This was pointed out by a core LOST user. Mayhem only makes signature models for Ward and Kolohe. However, the correct answer is that they also make them for Gorkin and Schönbeschen. Nishii was also introduced. The winning board is the LOST Scorcher XTR 3D CARBOLIC. The play board is Placebo's "Rocket FLEXLITE". 『O'NEILL COLD WATER CLASSIC SERIES』 The world's toughest surf tour, All five races that took place in the frigid climate are included! It also comes with an attached DVD, which is also worth watching. I recommend the April issue of SURFIN'LIFE. Released on March 10, 2010, retail price is 1,290 yen. Of course, it is also sold at "Luvsurf"!
Learn moreLOST's new all-round model "F-1 STUB" is officially announced!
"F-1 STUB" NEW MODEL 2010! ★Modern design based on the F1 model with enhanced all-around performance★ Features of "F-1 STUB" - The tail floats up even in small waves, making it easy to operate! ・Improved design based on the F1 model ・For intermediate and above level. ・Recommended for waist to head size. "F-1 STUB" This is a new design based on the F1 model. In 2009, the F1 model was the favorite and choice of many professional surfers and team riders, and as a model, its widespread use highlighted improvements that would enhance its all-around performance. To maximize the F1's performance in smaller, less powerful waves, we made the outline slightly wider for forward launch, relaxed the nose rocker a little, and added a bump hip wing to the outline to widen the tail section of the tail block at the front of the fin. The design adds drive and lift while maintaining a maximum width of 12 inches for control. The tail rocker and rails are the same as the F1 model, but the thin coating on the nose and tail gives it a lift and quick function that allows you to stay on top of the water even at slow speeds. We recommend a board that is 1/2 to 1 inch shorter than the F1. The F1 "STUB" is a fusion board that combines the most modern design with super high performance. [F-1 STUB size lineup/suitable weight] F-1 STUB 5'8" x 18 1/8"x 2 1/16" (173 x 46.0 x 5.25cm) 50-58kg 5'9" x 18 1/8"x 2 1/8" (175 x 46.3 x 5.4 cm) 55-63kg 5'10"x 18 3/8"x 2 3/16" (178 x 46.7 x 5.55cm) 60-68kg 5'11"x 18 1/2"x 2 1/4" (180 x 47.0 x 5.7 cm) 63-70kg 6'0" x 18 5/8"x 2 5/16" (183 x 47.3 x 5.85cm) 65-73kg 6'1" x 18 7/8"x 2 3/8" (185 x 47.9 x 6.0 cm 68-73kg 6'2" x 19" x 2 7/16" (188 x 48.2 x 6.2 cm) 70-75kg [F-1 STUB Price] Clear/FCS Composite Normal Fins (3 pcs) ■ Polyester ￥125,000 (excluding tax) / ￥131,250 (including tax) ■ Polyester Parabolic Stringer ￥135,000 (excluding tax) / ￥152,250 (excluding tax) ■ XTR ￥155,000 body / ￥162,750 tax included ■ XTR 3D CARBOLIC ￥170,000 (excluding tax) / ￥178,500 (excluding tax) If you were to choose a thruster model in 2010, This "F-1 STUB" is a model worth considering!

Learn moreMayhem: "Why don't you make skateboards?"
Mayhem said, "Why don't you make skateboards?" It was a question I was often asked. When I think about it, skateboarding is something I do all the time in my life. When you go shopping nearby or check out the waves, Come to think of it, I'm skating while imagining surfing! The brand that created the "surf style" category in recent years, The number of skateboards known as "cruiser" boards is increasing rapidly. Most "surf style" skateboards are Something like "Cruisers" or "Longboards" Unlike modern surfboards, the deck carving and outline It is not shaped to be proportional to an actual surfboard. No matter how you look at it, it was made by a surfboard craftsman (maker), It's not designed or shaped. Even the graphics are clearly not the kind you'd find on a real surfboard. Maybe we can do something better!!! To move in the right direction, we consulted with leading skate makers, We enlisted the help of Paul "Professor" Schmidt. ... Lost SurfSkates™ Don't get me wrong, this isn't just a case of a surfing company trying to make skateboards. In fact, "skate" companies have tried to make boards that mimic "surfing." We created several types, but we were never satisfied with them as they did not capture the true surfing movement we were looking for. All models in this collection faithfully inherit the genes of LOST surfboards. What we wanted to achieve was to create a skateboard that would give you the same feeling you get when riding Lost Surfboards, even when you're on the street, on the sidewalk, in the park, or in a situation where you can't go into the ocean. These LOST surf skateboard collections are It is a return to its original roots, which are that skateboarding was derived from surfing. When you go to work, go to school, or spend a day in town, The design is meant to evoke the same fun as a day at the beach.
Learn moreRecommended by Nishii! LOST Jacket is back in stock! [VICTIM]
This is Nishii's favorite and recommended product. LOST Hooded Jacket is back in stock! This was also posted on the WEB★STORE the other day, It was also available in stores, so it sold out immediately. I think it was marked as SOLD in no time, Nishii, who returned to Japan yesterday, took the trouble to bring it back to Japan. This LOST Hooded Jacket [VICTIM] looks like this in the photo: It just looks like a black jacket, but here's why I recommend it: There are three features. It's thin and doesn't take up much space when traveling by car, so Nishii can wear it while driving. It's lightweight, so even if you wear it for a long time, your shoulders won't get stiff or tired. The "plain" mark is the same color, so it's a design aimed at adults. It can also be used in business situations as an outer layer for suits. The planet mark is embroidered in black. The LOST mark is also embroidered in black on the shoulder. Nishii keeps his cell phone in the vertical zipper pocket. When a call comes in, just unzip the zipper and answer the phone easily. Even if you pull the zipper all the way up, It also has a convenient design with a cover to prevent it from touching your chin. Super lightweight! Anyway, the padding is thin and light, so open the front zipper, Throw it over a T-shirt and you can wear it all the way through the rainy season! We have also stocked the S size, which was not available before. All three sizes, S, M, and L, are back in stock! The price is ¥17,640 . http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/item_detail/itemId,326/ Click here to purchase!
