A must-see for anyone who wants to improve their surfing skills! This DVD provides detailed instructions on how to surf properly, just like Kelly Slater.

The front and rear weight balance of your stance is displayed on the screen as a number obtained by dividing 10 by 2, such as 2 in the front and 8 in the rear. There is so much to learn, such as how to turn, where to look, and where to position your shoulders. If you go surfing, watch this in the car and then surf according to this explanation, The difference between those who watch and those who don't is clear! This DVD is packed with three elements that will make you want to surf! Fitting Room –KS- features Kelly Slater in detail. It consists of three sections: "Surf Movie," "How To Be KS," and "Slow Play." Not only the techniques but also little tips such as take-offs are explained.

Introducing the special LOST surfboard created for the RED BULL shoot. RED BULL's web project, RED BULL DECADE, where team riders ride boards with various designs. We were able to secure three boards shaped by MAYHEM for filming in Tahiti, so we'd like to introduce them to you. After carefully shaping by MAYHEM, all Hydroflex 2.0 MARKO EPS foam is filled with epoxy resin. This is an ultra-lightweight special board that is placed in a vacuum bag to create a vacuum and then hydro 3D glassed. If you have seen the RED BULL website or the editorial article on this project in STAB magazine, you may have noticed this neon-colored board. You've probably seen it before. It's the same board as the one ridden by Kolohe, Julian, and Jamie O'Brien!! These three boards were not used by the crew because they were too small for filming, but they were returned to LOST in brand new condition. You can watch the approximately 7-minute video of RED BULL DECADE here ↓. https://create.redbull.com/us/en/surfing/episodes/1331622118838/red-bull-decades-matt-biolas-mayhem The bottom and deck are colored in two neon resin colors to stand out in the blue waters of Tahiti.

Learn moreVery popular! The most frequently asked question about "CONQUEST EL-DIABLO"
Hugely popular! "CONQUEST EL-DIABLO" has been receiving numerous reservations and inquiries every day. Thank you everyone! Among them, the most common consultation is... "Until now, I've not been interested in the CONQUEST series because the boards are too thick, but the evolved EL-DIABLO looks attractive and has a good ride, based on the riding video and Mayhem's commentary. I'd like to try it out, but if I want to make the board thinner for a custom order, how thick would be best?" We have received many inquiries about this, so we would like to offer the following suggestions. Using the AKU machine software, we were able to achieve a thin size and CL value that does not negatively affect the paddle performance of the CONQUEST EL-DIABLO model, and up to this thin size number, we were able to bring out the best in the CONQUEST EL-DIABLO model more than other models. *Custom orders are available, so please refer to them.
