LOST's Japan-exclusive "CHOPPER" stockboard is now in stock! Check out these photos from a session Masato had with photographer DAVE yesterday in Kamogawa, Chiba. All Surfing Photos By Dave Yamaya What board are you riding??? This is the LOST Japan-exclusive model "CHOPPER," which is Masato's signature model. This "CHOPPER" will not be available in large quantities like other boards. It takes a lot of time and effort to shape it, so they only do it when they have time.

Stock boards have arrived twice in the past, If you like unusual boards, If you want to ride a board that is different from others, For those who want to surf like Masato, The response was greater than expected and they sold out in no time. Masato also cherishes his CHOPPER , repairing it as he goes. The "CHOPPER" is rare due to limited stock, so please consider getting one soon! The "CHOPPER" inherits the Diablo's comfortable paddle performance, allowing you to surf at high speeds and easily take to the air. Enjoy the ride and surf!

Learn moreFU WAX: A must-have for CHIBA PRO QS 6000 competitors
Is there anyone who hasn't tried FU WAX yet? FU WAX is a surf wax that is trusted by professional surfers and imported all the way from Brazil by Love Surf. Nishii is currently in Shidashita, Chiba Prefecture for the CHIBA PRO QS 6000 tournament, and this ``FU WAX'' is a must-have item for competitors at the contest venue. However, because there are so many surfers in the USA and other countries, where it is difficult to get hold of them due to hoarding, they are said to be very precious to surfers. The current number one ranked artist in the JPSA is "Kei Kobayashi," and of course, "FU WAXER." This is Leonardo, currently ranked #1 on the QS rankings, and the famous FU WAXER. I only brought WARM, so I was asked where I could buy COOL. "Hideyoshi Tanaka" is a heavy-duty "FU WAXER" who has been using FU WAX for a long time. He says that when he runs out, he buys it at a shop in Chiba. Mason first used FU WAX as a child about two years ago and has been using it ever since. However, it is not as easy to find in Hawaii as it is in California. The 2015 US Open champion, professional golfer Hiroto Ohara, is also a famous "FU WAXER." San Clemente's Pat Dagaskas, a world-famous FU WAXER, showed me how he now owns three COOLs. This is Takumi Nakamura of the FU WAX Japan PRO team, who has now advanced to Round 3 and is hoping to win Round 4. At the WSL CHIBA PRO QS 6000 tournament venue, the water temperature is dropping, so it's a good idea to apply COOL over WARM! Please call those who use the same "FU WAX" as you as "FU WAXER"! Is there anyone who isn't using it yet?

We would like to introduce the new brand "BEECH TOWEL" from California. Beech Towel was born in Southern California. It was founded by a group of friends who wanted to develop towels that combined style and functionality. These towels are high quality and are anti-bacterial and deodorizing. In addition, the production and processing process is environmentally friendly. Not only is it functional as a towel with excellent design, This is a creative design that can be used as a rug both outdoors and indoors. There are six different designs. The price is 5,900 yen plus tax. Expected to arrive in June. Reservations are also accepted. If you would like to make a reservation, please call 03-3732-5532 https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/contact.html Or pre-order here before it arrives! Nishii ordered LEOPARD and DAZZLE STRIPE.
Learn moreLOST's "SUPER DIABLO" is in great shape! Why not give it a try?
My favorite model these days is LOST's " SUPER DIABLO." The tail shape is different from the PLACEBO "GOBLIN" design. If you're a reader of this blog, you probably know that. Only the center is very thick and has plenty of buoyancy, Anyone who rides it will be surprised at how fast the paddle moves. This allows for a quick takeoff from the swell. Another great feature of this model is that the tail kicks in very well. Because it's thick, you can paddle quickly, and once you get on, you can step on the tail and it moves easily. Among the many Mayhem boards with thick center numbers, this is the easiest to control. You can paddle easily and catch a lot of waves. LOST "SUPER DIABLO" POLYESTER stock boards are now in stock in all sizes! Now you can compare the sizes before and after making your choice! One of the reasons we recommend the LOST "SUPER DIABLO" is that it has stock board sizes in 1-inch increments. This means you can choose from subtle intermediate sizes like 5'5", 5'7", and 5'9", which are not available with the PLACEBO "GOBLIN", which has stock board sizes in 2-inch increments. Anyway, LOST 's "SUPER DIABLO" is designed to be easy for older guys to ride! LOST's "SUPER DIABLO" is in great shape! Why not give it a try?
Learn morePlease check it out! The new LOST leash cord model has arrived and is selling well!
Every time you surf, the leash cord gets pulled by the waves and gets damaged without you even realizing it. Since it is removed and used many times, the Velcro part becomes weaker the more you use it. The cord can get scratched or stretched by pulling. As the material ages, At Love Surf, we recommend replacing your leash cord once a year. This year's new LOST models have arrived for everyone to look forward to! It has a design on the inside cuff and is more popular than last year. Not only are there more fun colors than ever before, but we also have more sophisticated colors for older guys in stock. LOST leash cords are available here! There are two thicknesses. 『 LOST 』 HIGH PERFORMANCE leash [COMP] 5mm [FREE SURF] 6.5mm Please choose your leash carefully, just like your board and WET!
Learn moreIntroducing the very convenient "FU WAX" case.
The other day, I mentioned on this blog that the 3-type mix of "FU WAX" is good, When I actually tried it, I found that it was better than the previous two types, "BASE" and "TOP". It's absolutely great! That's what I've been told by many people I've met! From now until autumn, it's best to apply these three layers of ``BASE,'' ``TROPICAL,'' and ``WARM'' with just a little effort! "BASE" and "TROPICAL" create the "BASE" we have known up until now, It's a good idea to apply a thin layer of "WARM" before each round! The grip lasts longer and is more economical. The grip performance is outstanding! We would like to introduce you to the excellent ``FU WAX'' case that can store all three types (3 items). Here it is. You can easily store three items vertically. And the price is only 648 yen! The Nishii method involves not throwing away the label but leaving it attached to the wax and using it until the very end. This is to prevent you from forgetting the type. Please do not throw away the label, but keep it in the "FU WAX" case and use it up wisely!
