The water temperature is dropping rapidly, isn't it? Please change your "FU WAX"!

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. Due to the southwesterly winds that have been blowing every day, the water temperature in the Chiba area is dropping rapidly! Please change the look of "FU WAX"! Unlike other surf waxes, FU WAX boasts 3D grip performance, but if you don't use it according to the water temperature at the time, its incredible grip will be lost! FU WAX is the world's best surf wax, trusted and used by everyone from professional surfers whose lives depend on the results of contests to weekend surfers who want to make the best possible ride on their important days off. FU WAXER is used by an incredible number of surfers, including world champion Filipe Toledo, the still-active and legendary Kelly Slater, and Kanoa Igarashi, the only Japanese elite tour surfer! There are even many secret "FU WAXERS" who are contracted with other wax brands but actually use "FU WAX"! FU WAX, which is gaining more and more addicts every year, is handmade one by one by FU in Brazil using a top-secret recipe. Other brands of wax require a lot of time and effort to cover up the weak grip, and you have to apply a lot of it to create unevenness! "FUWAX" is different! Make sure to spread it evenly, not in a way that creates bumps! Just apply a thin layer all over the surface and it gives great grip, so it's actually economical and eco-friendly! [ap_show_item 11799] [ap_show_item 117251] [ap_show_item 117241] [ap_show_item 117169] "FU WAX" is a worldwide best-seller, so be sure to purchase it from authorized dealers such as Love Surf! I found a fake on an auction site or other flea market site! It's hard to tell just by looking at the packaging, but the important grip strength is completely incomparable to the genuine product, so please be careful!

The all-black volleyball leash "BALLET" that Nishii loves is now on sale!

The all-black volleyball leash "BALLET" that Nishii loves is now on sale! https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/ap_brand/ballet/ The all-black volleyball leash used by Nishii, the only Japanese ambassador, is now on sale. Until now, I've only had all-white leashes, but the all-black leashes are also really cool, maybe because it's volleyball? I really like the stylish atmosphere. These photos were taken when Mr. Okuyama from Kimies, an importer and distributor in Japan, brought the leash to Nishii. On this day, Okuyama compared the sizes of the 5'4" and 5'5" LOST round nose fish. I bought the Five Five size and took it home.

This has enabled us to increase the number of units we produce each year. The work of our skilled craftsmen has also improved since the first year.

Breaking news! We're pleased to announce that we've received some of the all-carbon "DOUBLE DART" and "BLACK SHEEP BUILT" items that were previously sold out!

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. Sorry for the wait! LOST carbon boards are now in stock for you to ride during the New Year's holiday period. We have received many inquiries about "DOUBLE DART" and "BLACK SHEEP BUILT" such as "Do you have them in stock?", "When will they arrive?", and "I'd like to reserve them!" The sizes of each model vary, so please check to see if the model you want is in the right size. The 'DOUBLE DART' and 'BLACK SHEEP BUILT' used by LOST Surfboards, a brand at the forefront of surfboard design and a leader in the surfboard scene, have a similar appearance but are completely different from all-carbon boards from other brands! "DOUBLE DART" Highly resilient, lightest, strongest and fastest board! Carbon & S-glass hybrid "BLACK DART" fabric + stringerless 1.5lb high density EPS + epoxy resin! The surfboard is shaped around the rail edges of the surfboard, with a 1.5 oz high density EPS core separated into upper and lower sections, and the entire surfboard is completely encased in two vacuum glass carbon fiber shells. To avoid being too stiff or hard, the DOUBLE DART has been designed with the rail wraps where the upper and lower parts overlap as short as possible, with only a 4-ounce glass fiber cover layer completely enveloping the wraps and rails. This subtle rail wrap helps the DOUBLE DART surfboard bend and twist more freely. The quick response and instant memory flex of the BLACK DART carbon fiber allows the board to take on the desired line at top speed, hitting the wave and bouncing back with ease to respond to the rider's commands. The response makes the surfboard feel like it's alive! "BLACK SHEEP BUILT" A light, strong, high-speed material that flexes and rebounds with great suppleness! Made with epoxy resin + stringerless 1.5lb EPS foam + Triax carbon! Featuring an ultra-lightweight 1.5 lb (680g) EPS blank as its core and our exclusive Triax high-quality carbon fiber, it's a material designed to make for a fast, responsive and lively surfboard. Triax carbon is glass laminated with epoxy resin on the surface to provide both durability and performance. The deck rails and bottom are not wrapped around the edges, but rather around the edges, and the Triax is encased in 4oz fiberglass, giving it quick response, flexible flex underfoot and overall feel. The performance of BLACK SHEEP BUILT surfboards comes from Triax carbon, which combines a three-axis layup. The rail-to-rail twist is enhanced and controlled by the non-crimped multi-directional carbon. The 0° fiber from tip to tail acts as a live stringer, allowing the board to flex smoothly as you step on it, increasing rebound speed and quick response. The +30/-30° fibers, which are angled rather than 90 degrees to the stringer line from nose to tail, control the twist and return of the entire surfboard and convert it into speed. Because it is not woven, the fibers are flatter and contain less resin, resulting in a smoother, stronger and more natural flex, reducing weaknesses such as creases, cracks and breaks in the deck surface. This has gotten a bit long, but in the current carbon surfboard market, many different brands are releasing their products one after another, but the contents (performance) of LOST Surfboards' {BLACK DART} and {BLACK SHEEP BUILT} are different! The surfboards that have arrived late this time are all in limited quantities and vary in size and quantity. If you miss this chance, the next shipment is uncertain! Why not stand out from the other surfers around you this New Year's holiday season with a special carbon board from LOST Surfboards? Don't miss it! Click here to find out more about "DOUBLE DART"!

We have a selection of carefully selected used boards used by Pro Nishii in stock!

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. This STORE BLOG will announce that we have received a used board used by Pro Nishii, the ``RNF-RETRO,'' one of his favorite models. [ap_show_item 120029] This is a used board used by professional surfer Nishii, the ``RNF-RETRO,'' which has performance that is hard to imagine from the classic San Diego Fish outline, so much so that it has been likened to a ``wolf in sheep's clothing.'' This is a valuable piece that was glass-jobed by LONG TOE, a master of art resin color, to match the image of professional golfer Nishii! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-ivwv0WZq4&t=42s You can see just how good this surfboard is by watching the video above! It is in very good condition and can be used for a long time. [ap_show_item 120137] This is a custom-ordered board made in the USA by DRIVER3.0, the driving force behind {MAYHEM}'s rise to the top spot in the WSL Shapers Rankings. As you can see from the dimensions, it has been customized to be fatter than the BRO dimensions, making it perfect for those who prefer a shorter ride! [ap_show_item 120225] A carefully selected used board of "SUB SCORCHER STING", not available in Japan. Based on LOST's classic "SUB SCORCHER," it adds Swallow and Sting to create a playful performance shortboard that everyone can enjoy. For other "USED boards" click here!

The water temperature is dropping... SURF EARS 3.0, earplugs made by surfers for surfers, are back in stock!

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. Have you recently had trouble getting water out of your ears or hearing sounds? SURF EARS 3.0, the top-of-the-line earplugs that are effective in preventing surfer's ear, a condition experienced by long-time surfers where the bones inside the ear grow larger due to the irritation caused by cold seawater, causing the ear canal to shrink and, in the worst case, making it impossible to hear, is back in stock! In recent years, the number of surfers using earplugs has increased in the lineup! There is apparently no way to completely prevent surfer's ear, but wearing earplugs while surfing can be quite effective. SURF EARS 3.0 are high-performance earplugs that let you hear but block water. They are high-performance earplugs made by surfers for surfers. Even those who have avoided earplugs because they make it difficult to hear surrounding sounds and the voices of people around them can use these without any discomfort! [ap_show_item 2798] Considering the price of earplugs, the loss of the expensive "SURF EARS 3.0" would be huge! But don't worry! The SURF EARS 3.0 comes with an adjustable leash cord to prevent it from getting lost.
