Scoop! What's your favorite board right now at MAYHEM?
Nishii, who is currently staying in California, I have a surf session with Mayhem almost every morning before work. The water temperature has been unusually warm these past few days. Mayhem surfs in just his trunks. The board he is riding is a Pisces, which is his current favorite. This is the board I brought with me to Japan when I visited the other day. Mayhem Pisces is my favorite. The fact that he rides it regularly is proof that it's a good board! https://youtu.be/4BV0maosCd8

Learn moreThe popular OZONE Eyewear "OTON WAVES" model now comes in refreshing lens colors that you'll want to wear indoors too!
Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. OZONE Eyewear launched in 2024. It quickly became a popular brand, appealing to people seeking authenticity. It is not influenced by the rapidly changing trends of today, and its basic, simple design will never get boring, and its high quality means you can use it for a long time. OTON WAVES, a popular model among OZONE Eyewear, was supervised by professional photographer Yasushi Murata. Yasushi Murata, who loves wearing sunglasses both indoors and outdoors, can quickly flip up the lenses without removing his sunglasses to give him the bare eye look while taking daily videos and photos, or while driving his car or motorcycle, which is his hobby. [ap_show_item 356716] The refreshing Coast Green color of "OTON WAVES," which sold out immediately upon its initial arrival, is now available in a new color! Coast Green, which allows you to see your eyes subtly and can be worn at night or indoors, is recommended for those who want constant eye support. Koji Nishii, a legendary professional surfer based in Los Angeles and Tokyo who works worldwide, had been searching the world, including high-end brands, for sunglasses that he was satisfied with, but he couldn't find any. So he decided to produce the sunglasses himself from scratch and make them he could be satisfied with, and so OZONE Eyewear was launched in 2024. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCn2EShMQO0&t=2s Unlike well-known high-end brand sunglasses, which are mass-produced using molds and simply have the brand name printed on them, these are handmade by artisans, cut out from a single piece of wood, and polished to a high shine by hand, each one carefully finished. The high quality of OZONE Eyewear is a result of Koji Nishii's commitment to his products. For other OZONE Eyewear products, please click here!

M Mr. A, LOST "Mick's Tape" custom order BLACK SHEEP Build was selected. He fell in love at first sight with the BLACK SHEEP version of "Mick's Tape" that we had in stock in limited quantities, and ordered a custom bike in his size and with the same specifications as the stock version. He was very satisfied with the finished quality, lightness, color, and everything else. He said the bike's ride quality was definitely good, and he was looking forward to his first ride. Mr. B, The customer selected the LOST "3.0 STUB DRIVER" custom order made in CALIFORINIA. This customer is a heavy user who has ridden a variety of models up until now. This time, he customized a board for use in slightly better waves. The model was the "3.0 STUB DRIVER" to broaden the range of use in good waves. The slightly longer custom size gave it a good ride, and he was very pleased with it. Mr. C said, He chose the LOST "SUB DRIVER2.0" custom order DOUBLE DART. He is a heavy user who has ridden various LOST boards up until now. This time, the customer ordered a custom "SUB DRIBVER 2.0" that was sized for use in slightly better waves, and was fitted with the top-quality, high-performance, lightweight DOUBLE DART. It was completed sooner than expected, and the customer was very pleased. Mr. D, LOST "THE RIPPER" custom order BLACK SHEEP Build was selected. He had been riding a "Rad Ripper" Poly board with great success, but it had started to show signs of wear, so he wanted to customize it with the durable Black Sheep board. We changed the model to the just-released "The Ripper" and ordered it. He was very happy to get his hands on a new, one-of-a-kind board straight away. Mr. E, I chose LOST's "MICK'S TAPE" BLACK SHEEP BUILT. I'm Kohei, a staff member at Love Surf. I test rode the LOST "MICKS TAPE" BLACK SHEEP BUILT and it was so good I couldn't resist ordering a custom surfboard. I've ridden both the POLYESTER and BLACK SHEEP BUILT, and while it's a matter of preference, the "MICKS TAPE" pairs perfectly with the BLACK SHEEP BUILT - it's amazing! I would especially recommend it to anyone who likes the "RNF'96"! Everyone! Thank you for visiting our store!
