A world first! With suspension! Mason Ho rides the RNF-RETRO C4!

The other day, Nishii went to the WAVE pool "BSR Cable Park" in Texas. This is the board that Mason Ho chose for the team photo session! The world's first surfboard with suspension!The RNF-RETRO C4 ! Mason Ho has been riding since he switched tothe RNF-RETRO C4 . He looked to be in good shape and had some incredibly high airs! The C4 is made of EPS foam, so it has a strong rebound, and the suspension function works from the first turn after takeoff. Because it gives you more speed, it's also suitable for airing in short pool waves. It flew so high even on the backside! The " RNF-RETRO " model itself is a great model, So C4 material is more suitable for air surfers! Nishii has been testing the DIABLO-X C4 since 2017, I've been told that when I ride a C4, it's obvious just by looking at it that my board is not normal. You can feel the difference while riding, but I remember being impressed that the material is so amazing that it can be conveyed to those just looking at it. "Mason" also said that the C4 is completely different!! "Mason," Finn said. Attach two M-size KA fins to the front, Attach two M-size MB fins to the rear fins. I was riding it with the QUAD setting.

Rediscovery! What is the main reason why the "PLACEBO" surfboard works so well?

Recently the waves have been small and lacking power. Nishii continues to ride PLACEBO's best-selling model, the Goblin-Sprint , which is stored in California. I've been riding it every day, and the more I ride, the better it feels. I had been riding with twin fins for a while, but as the waves got a little bigger, I added a small fin to the center. I'm still riding the Goblin-Sprint . As you all know, the Goblin-Sprint board has a great shape design. The main reason why the PLACEBO is so good is because of its "FLEXLITE" board structure. The resilient EPS core is combined with three types of high-quality PVC sheets in a secret structure that only "FLEXLITE" has succeeded in achieving, resulting in a soft flex and a comfortable ride. This board has a high rebound timing that is perfect for surfing movements, allowing you to surf fast as if you were riding on a spring. "FLEXLITE" is designed to respond to the rider's movements, It reads your intentions, rebounding with each turn and flexing like a living thing, giving you speed. The main reason why PLACEBO surfboards are so good is because of their "FLEXLITE" board structure! It is incredibly impact resistant, dent resistant, durable and long-lasting, and will not discolor or fade even after 10 years of use. It also has excellent resale value, so you can sell it for a high price even after a few years. The main reason why PLACEBO surfboards are so good is because of their "FLEXLITE" board structure! PLACEBO's best-selling model " GOBLIN-SPRINT " is in great shape! (*The wax was getting dirty so I peeled it off and replaced it with new!) Photo by Takuya Maeda

Freshly filmed yesterday! Check out the father-son session between Dino and Kolohe!

Freshly filmed yesterday! Check out the father-son session between Dino and Kolohe! Check out these photos of Andino and his son Dino and Kolohe's surf session taken by Nishii yesterday. Kolohe is holding a board called "MAYSYM," which is currently being developed by Mayhem and has an asymmetrical tail. Kolohe showed it to me and it was 5'6" long. He landed this air right from the very first jump! I gradually tried out various maneuvers to check the board's movement. Dino, the dad, shows off his carving skills, making the most of his huge body and producing huge spray! She also had sharp lips that you wouldn't expect from such a huge body! By the end of the two-hour session, I was pushing hard but I was used to it and didn't wipe out. I also enjoyed standing in a parallel stance like this. He said it was his first time riding a board with an asymmetrical tail, but he could feel the difference in the shape of the tail and it felt good. We're looking forward to the release of Mayhem's new board, MAYSYM, which has an asymmetrical tail!

LOST's 2019 model stockboard is now in stock! "Puddle Jumper HP"

LOST 2019 model stockboards are now in stock! 『 Puddle Jumper Homepage 』 This new model is a slimmer version of the popular Puddle Jumper series, with a lower CL value and improved performance. The original PJ's wide nose has been sharpened. It features a shorter ride and a wider outline. This new outline allows it to surf like a normal performance board. It's the most aggressive of the PJ series models, yet it's easy to paddle and surf, making it a fun board with a quick turn. The board design is attractive, with a sleek outline that conceals its generous volume. It also has built-in speed. Riding the tail creates a responsive, top-to-bottom rotation. It's like having a motor, delivering high speeds right out of the gate in small waves. The deep, long vee-equipped tail area inspires confidence with high-speed control. The calculated rocker design, width for stability, and deep, single-concave midsection create more speed in small waves than you'd expect from this board. It's fast, agile, fast, loose and precise to surf, but also playful. If you're one of those people who enjoys fast and easy small wave surfing, the PJHP will take you to the next level. "It moves too much! It's a fast board! That's the Puddle Jumper HP." They run and move very fast, so we recommend using larger fins at first until you get used to the movements!
