Thank you to everyone who came to our store and purchased so many brand new LOST surfboards!

Mr. A, You have chosen LOST's DIABLO-X C4 Technology. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/899/ I was looking for an all-around board around 5'8-5'9 that was easy to ride but didn't overfloat. He was looking for a board that was easy to ride and had good response, so I recommended the DIABLO-X. Mr. B, You have chosen LOST's "RNF-RETRO" C4 Technology. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/913/ He also uses a SHONAN WARRIOR, but was looking for a board with less buoyancy so he could use it for different waves. He purchased this board as it has good movement while still allowing for relaxed movement. He will be using the newly released Rob Machado keel fins from FCS, and will be riding this 5'10" size with twin fins. Mr. C said, LOST "RNF ULTRA" POLYESTER RESIN COLOR was selected. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/915/ He came to our shop from far away with his girlfriend on a weekend. He was a fan of the "Rad Ripper" model and wanted to improve his surfing, so he used the inquiry form to ask about his next board. We recommended the "RNF ULTRA" model, which is a longer board that he would like to use to practice rail work. Mr. D, LOST "SMOOTH OPERATOR" POLYESTER RESIN COLOR was selected. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/917/ He enjoys surfing on a variety of boards, from long to short, fish and mid-length. This time, since we are the same age, I found this board on the Love Surf website, "SMOOTH OPERATOR" He came to our store to see the actual product. He also liked the high-quality resin color and decided to ride it in that color. Mr. E, He chose LOST's "CALIFORNIA TWIN" POLYESTER. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/41292/ He is a heavy user of LOST surfboards and enjoys surfing with various boards, but this time he was surfing for the first time in a while. He was very happy to get his new board. In the past, he preferred thin, light, high-performance boards. As I get older, I've gradually become better at choosing widths and thicknesses, and this time I chose the ``CALIFORNIA TWIN'', which is very popular at Love Surf and is out of stock. I was asked to take a ride. Everyone! Come visit us! Lots! Thank you for purchasing our new "LOST Surfboard"!

Mr. A, LOST "PARTY CRASHER" Polyester Resin tint color was chosen. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/51224/ I have a RE LOADED as a high buoyancy board that makes it easy to ride waves, but I also have a board that allows me to move more and take more action. This super popular model "PARTY CRASHER" was selected in the 6'6" size. Mr. B, We chose LOST's "SMOOTH OPERATER" Polyester Resin tint color. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/917/ He came to our store looking for a surfboard to transition from a longboard to a shortboard. Apparently, a senior surfer recommended Love Surf and "SMOOTH OPERATER." She was having trouble deciding between the pale pastel colors she likes for "MAYHEM" and the contrasting dark resin colors, but she chose this purple resin color on the recommendation of a friend who came to the store with her. Mr. C said, LOST "RNF-RETRO" Polyester Resin tint color was selected. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/913/ He is a heavy surfer who purchased many LOST surfboards last year. He likes short-length surfboards and had been eyeing one for months, always checking it out when he came to Love Surf. After listening carefully to how to ride the RNF-RETRO model, which Nishii himself highly praises, as well as the recommended fin settings and characteristics of the model, he was convinced and finally decided to ride it. Mr. D, He chose LOST's "SWORD FISH" BLACK DART. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/39980/ This board was made to order. The BLACK DART is made with EPS foam, EPOXY resin, and a carbon outer layer on the deck, making it the strongest and longest-lasting surfboard of all LOST surfboard technologies. The finished board is also lightweight, so even though it's large, it offers excellent maneuverability, making it a great choice for older guys. Because it's stringerless, it flexes easily, allowing for a smoother turn. With a unique color scheme, you too can order a custom model from USA, just like Mr. D! This board has an aura that you'll never forget once you've seen it!! Mr. E, LOST "DRIVER2.0" Pro-Formance series and https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/37140/ He chose two LOST "SUB DRIVER2.0" Pro-Formance series drivers. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/55395/ I'm Kaisa Kawamura, a pro surfer and popular YouTuber. I've been making many custom orders for LOST and MAYHEM boards for a while now, and this time it's a combination of two different lengths: the 5'10" DRIVER2.0 and the 5'9.5" SUB DRIVER2.0. When I asked why the boards are larger than previous orders, I was told that they've increased the volume because thinner boards are more likely to break. When riding boards made in the USA in Japan, they seem to have a softer ride than Australian boards, and they adapt to the waves better and fit the ride better. That's an opinion only a professional can have! We can't wait to see the riding of these boards uploaded to YouTube! Everyone! Come visit us! Lots! Thank you for purchasing our new "LOST Surfboard"!

Everyone! Thank you for coming to our store! Thank you for purchasing so many brand new "LOST Surfboards" Polyester Made in Japan Quality!

Mr. A, You have chosen LOST "DRIVER 2.0" Polyester Made in Japan Quality. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/37140/ He usually rides boards that are about 5'9" long, but even that feels short for him considering his height. This time, he wanted to ride a board that was about the same length as his height, so we decided to have him ride the 6'0" DRIVER2.0, which is the perfect length for his height. Mr. B, You have chosen LOST "DRIVER 2.0" Polyester Made in Japan Quality. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/37140/ He had previously come to our shop to check it out. He had heard good things about the DRIVER 2.0 and, being a fan of Mason surfing, had asked us if he wanted to try out a MAYHEM. However, we couldn't find the right size for him. However, a recent stock at Love Surf miraculously arrived and included the size he wanted, a 5'8" PRO, so he immediately came to our shop. Mr. C said, LOST "STAB IN THE DARK DRIVER 2.0" Polyester Made in Japan Quality was chosen. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/42516/ He had been using twin boards and other boards with more buoyancy for a while, but when he tried riding a shortboard he found it difficult, but now he is able to ride it as before and wanted a new board.He wanted a ``STAB IN THE DARK DRIVER 2.0'', so when he looked for stock at the end of the year and at the beginning of the year it was sold out, but when he looked again recently he found a 5'10.5 in stock and was able to purchase it immediately. Mr. D, You have chosen LOST's "ROCKET REDUX" Polyester Made in Japan Quality. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/39906/ He heard about LOST MADE IN JAPAN QUALITY and made a reservation at the end of the year. He's had four failed attempts on other brands' surfboards in a row, so he didn't want to make another mistake. He chose the aggressive "ROCKET REDUX" model, which features a low rocker and wide outline for rocket-like acceleration and high-speed surfing. E, who has a long history of surfing, is also aiming for the "SUB DRIVER 2.0"! Mr. E, You have chosen LOST's "ROCKET REDUX" Polyester Made in Japan Quality. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/39906/ He is a local surfer from northern Chiba who currently rides the "DRIVER2.0." He had seen Love Surf's website and watched professional surfer Arashi Murata's YouTube channel, and had been considering the ROCKET REDUX as a surfboard for when the waves are small and he lacks power. He was also interested in the longer length of the DRIVER2.0 Stub in the dark, and was unsure which to buy, but he decided to have the DRIVER2.0 Stub in the dark custom-ordered and the ROCKET REDUX as a stockboard.

Thank you to everyone who came to our store and purchased so many brand new PLACEBO surfboards!

Mr. A, PLACEBO "RAD DIABLO" FLEXLITE-ULTIMATE2 was selected. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/40958/ When he first started surfing, he followed the textbook advice and gradually switched from a big board to a smaller one. Apparently, his latest board is too sharp and thin, making it impossible to ride waves at all. So, he came to our store to check out the popular Presebo, which has buoyancy but still moves. He chose the "RAD DIABLO" 6'0. Mr. B, You have chosen the PLACEBO "ZEKE 2.0" FLEXLITE-ULTIMATE2. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/40854/ He is a veteran surfer who wanted to surf more comfortably from now on. He came to our shop looking for a board with high buoyancy. He wanted buoyancy, but he didn't want a board that was too long, so he came to our shop with his options narrowed down to the "ZEKE 2.0". He decided on the comfortable size of 5'9. Mr. C said, You chose PLACEBO "RE-LOADED" DURA-FLEX. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/905/ He has been using the "FISH QUEST" for a long time, but this time he purchased the "RE-LOADED", which is longer and easier to ride. He was unsure about the size until the very end, but ultimately decided on the 6'2" which allows for more freedom of movement. Mr. D, You have chosen PLACEBO's "TABLET REDUX" DURA-FLEX. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/40829/ This customer had been enjoying surfing for a while, but he came to our shop after coming back from the beach to ask about repairs. Since the customer would not be able to ride during the repairs, they consulted us about their board and were considering buying a new board with some changes. We recommended the 6'2" TABLET REDUX. Mr. E, PLACEBO "RAD DIABLO" FLEXLITE-ULTIMATE2 was selected. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/40958/ The customer has a Paddle Jumper, but wanted a more all-around board. Although he also has a performance board, he finds boards with more buoyancy more comfortable, so he has been using the Paddle Jumper more often. However, it is difficult to handle large or fast waves, so he chose the 5'10" RAD DIABLO, which has a little more buoyancy and is easier to handle in a variety of waves. Everyone! Come visit us! Lots! Thank you for purchasing our new PLACEBO surfboard!

Everyone! Thank you for coming to our store! Thank you so much for purchasing so many brand new "LOST Surfboards" Polyester Made in Japan Quality!

Mr. A, You have chosen LOST's "SUB DRIVER 2.0" Polyester Made in Japan Quality. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/55395/ He came to our store after hearing rumors that LOST's "DRIVER 2.0" was a great board. He wanted a board for relatively good waves, so he would have preferred the "DRIVER 2.0," but the size he wanted was sold out and out of stock, so he decided to try out the slightly wider "SUB DRIVER 2.0" first. He said that if it worked well, he would immediately order a custom "DRIVER 2.0." Mr. B, You have chosen LOST's "SUB DRIVER 2.0" Polyester Made in Japan Quality. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/55395/ He is already riding the "DRIVER2.0" and it's running great, so this is the perfect combination. He also purchased the "SUB DRIVER 2.0." His wife was considering ordering a custom made one in the USA, Apparently, you can ride this stock-sized board to see how it feels and then decide on the size. Mr. C said, You have chosen LOST's "ROCKET REDUX" Polyester Made in Japan Quality. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/39906/ Is there a board I can have some fun riding while waiting for the custom order board I ordered the other day to be completed? He came to our store and asked for advice. We chose this board, which is a little larger than usual size and easy to ride. I recommended the 5'10 size. Mr. D, You have chosen LOST's "ROCKET REDUX" Polyester Made in Japan Quality. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/39906/ He already owns the same model, the "ROCKET REDUX," from CARBON WRAP, and loves it so much he uses it regularly. He loves the "ROCKET REDUX" so much that he purchased another board of the same model in the same size, 5'7". Since he travels a lot, he chose the POLY board this time, which is easy to repair while traveling. Mr. E, You have chosen LOST "DRIVER2.0" Polyester Made in Japan Quality. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/37140/ He purchased a RAD RIPPER by reservation last month, and it was so good that he recommended it to a friend. His friend also wanted one, so he came to our store with his friend to reserve a RAD RIPPER. He used to ride surfboards from other brands, but the RAD RIPPER was so good that he was interested in the DRIVER 2.0, which he was looking for in good waves. He happened to see the right size on the rack in the store, and made an unexpected, immediate decision. Everyone! Come visit us! Lots!

Everyone! Thank you for coming to our store! Thank you so much for purchasing so many "LOST Custom Order Surfboards"!

Mr. A, He chose the LOST Driver 2.0 Polyester Proformance Series. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/37140/ This customer placed a custom order with a particular color. Previously, they had placed a custom order with a different color from another brand, but the finished product was completely different from what they had imagined. So this time, they consulted Luvsurf. We took the time to create an order sheet that was as close to their image as possible, and ordered it from the United States, so this time, the custom order board was completed exactly as they imagined without any problems. The customer was very satisfied. Mr. B, He chose the LOST Driver 2.0 Polyester Proformance Series. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/37140/ He purchased a stock DRIVER 2.0 board when it was first released and continues to use it today. Unlike the standard sizes, the current board has added volume, making it easy to use and a favorite of his. He ordered a custom clone board this time. He was delighted with the finished clone board, which was able to be reproduced exactly like his favorite board thanks to LOST's digital management system. Mr. C said, LOST's "RAD RIPPER" Polyester was chosen. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/39979/ We custom-made it to fit your body type and needs based on the stock board dimensions. Since Shonan Kugenuma is his home base, he chose the RAD RIPPER because it has a design that would suit the wave conditions. I saw that he had already posted a video of himself riding it on social media. The custom size was perfect and the RAD RIPPER looked great! Mr. D, He chose the LOST Driver 2.0 Polyester Proformance Series. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/37140/ He wanted the best board that would suit him best, so he consulted with us and custom ordered a 5'9" size. He knew the reputation of the DRIVER2.0 and had decided that the next board he would ride would definitely be the DRIVER2.0. Since this was the customer's first new item and a custom order, they were delighted with how cool it looked when they picked it up. Mr. E, LOST "RETRO RIPPER" Polyester Resin Tint Color was chosen. The board I had custom ordered for a surf trip to Indonesia and for the larger waves in Japan is now complete. The RETRO RIPPER is a model developed with the concept of being longer and suitable for riding larger waves. He owns a variety of MAYHEM boards and is very smart about choosing models to ride in waves that make the most of the characteristics of each model. The blue resin color is very beautiful! Everyone!

Mr. A, You have chosen LOST "DRIVER 2.0" Polyester Made in Japan Quality. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/37140/ He currently rides a LOST "SUB BUGGY" model, but came to us wanting to upgrade to the evolved high-performance "DRIVER 2.0" model. He was considering a 5'10" size, but decided on the sharper, more maneuverable 5'9" size so he could ride in both good and small waves. Mr. B, You have chosen LOST's "RAD RIPPER" Polyester Made in Japan Quality. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/39979/ He came to our shop looking for a board with a fast take-off that could be used in small waves. Naturally, it also needed to have good maneuverability, so he was torn between the fast initial speed of the "ROCKET REDUX" and the more drive-oriented "RAD RIPPER," but ultimately decided on the popular "RAD RIPPER" 5'10. Mr. C said, You have chosen LOST "DRIVER 2.0" Polyester Made in Japan Quality. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/37140/ He started surfing and has made great progress, so he came to our store to purchase the high-performance model "DRIVER 2.0." He chose the perfect size, 5'7". He said he was a little worried about whether he could master it, but he said he would do his best with the youth and power of being in his early twenties. Mr. D, You have chosen LOST "DRIVER 2.0" Polyester Made in Japan Quality. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/37140/ He is currently 14 years old and lives in Tokyo, but apparently goes to Izu every weekend to train hard. When he consulted with another brand he usually rides, he was told that with the global surfing boom this year, customizing would take much longer than usual due to the lack of foam, so he decided to turn to Luvsurf, despite the lack of options. Luvsurf stocks a wide variety of sizes to meet various needs. This customer also found the perfect "DRIVER 2.0" poles in a 5'4" size that was not available at other stores, and was very satisfied with the results. Mr. E, You have chosen LOST's "RAD RIPPER" Polyester Made in Japan Quality. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/39979/ He came to our store after hearing rumors about the ease of riding and excellent performance of the "Rad Ripper," which is so popular that production cannot keep up. He made a reservation on the spot, and returned to pick up the 5'10" bike after it arrived. We have already received feedback that it is "in excellent condition, far exceeding rumors and expectations," and a friend who borrowed it for a test ride also came to our store immediately to make a reservation.

Mr. A, LOST "RNF-RETRO" Polyester RASIN COLOR was chosen. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/913/ My name is Kohei, and I was so impressed with the overflow size RNF-RETRO I had ridden before that I decided to buy my second RNF-RETRO, a 5'5" bike. It doesn't have the same movement as the performance boards that were originally well-known for, but in exchange, it has overwhelming take-off and paddling performance, allowing you to enjoy the speed and flow. Mr. B, LOST "SHONAN WARRIOR" Polyester Rasin Color was chosen. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/918/ He had been looking at Love Surf's website and came to see the SHONAN WARRIOR in person. He currently uses a shortboard with a pointed nose, but is finding it difficult to catch the waves he wants at the crowded beach on weekends, which is causing him stress. The SHONAN WARRIOR he chose this time was a little unsure as it was his first time using a short size, but after we explained the model's performance, including the paddle performance that matches its appearance and its maneuverability that exceeds its appearance, he made his decision. Mr. C said, LOST "RNF-RETRO" C4 TECHNOLOGY was selected. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/913/ After carefully examining various models on the Love Surf website, he decided that the RNF-RETRO would best suit his needs and came to our store to check it out. After comparing the front and rear board sizes, he decided on the C4 TECHNOLOGY board, as it was made of a flexible material that would absorb shocks and provide a comfortable ride, and the durability of the epoxy resin board was a major consideration. Mr. D, LOST chose "ROCKET REDUX" CARBON WRAP TECHNOLOGY. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/39906/ He came to our store because we had just received the size of the popular and sold-out "CALIFORNIA TWIN" he wanted. We asked him if there were any other boards we could recommend, and we explained to him the high performance and strength of the "ROCKET REDUX" Carbon Wrap model. He liked the carbon finish, and decided to ride the "ROCKET REDUX." Mr. E, He chose LOST's "RAD RIPPER" LIGHT SPEED. https://www.luvsurf.co.jp/model/39979/ He purchased the PLACEBO TABLET REDUX DURA FLEX for small waves in the summer. The TABLET REDUX moved well even with more buoyancy, so he wanted a board that could be used all-around with more buoyancy than his previous board. Since his home beach, Kugenuma Beach, is crowded, he chose the LIGHT SPEED, which is more durable than the POLY. Everyone! Come visit us! Lots! Thank you for purchasing our new "LOST Surfboard"!

Everyone! Thank you for coming to our store and purchasing so many "brand new PLACEBO surfboards."

Mr. A, You chose PLACEBO's "GOBLIN-SPRINT" FLEXLITE-HYPER. He came to the store after hearing that the popular "GOBLIN-SPRINT" was on sale. He had never ridden a very short board before and was unsure which size to choose, but the buoyancy was solid, so he decided on the 5'6". Mr. B, You chose the PLACEBO " RE-LOADED " DURA-FLEX. This customer is quite large, and when he searched for a board with a liter rating that he could comfortably ride, he could only find mid-length boards, and he didn't want to ride anything longer. That's when he heard about the RE-LOADED and came to our store. He chose the 6'4" board. It has a generous 49cl volume and seems to have good mobility, so he said he was really looking forward to it. Mr. C said, PLACEBO " UBER DRIVER-JP " chose FLEXLITE-ULTIMATE. I switched from a Placebo 5'7" Short Round, but the Short Round felt too buoyant, so I was looking for a board that was as close to a standard board as possible. I chose the Placebo for durability. Mr. D, You chose the PLACEBO " RE-LOADED " DURA-FLEX. This is a transition from a performance longboard. The client was considering the Goblin as he was switching from a 9'0" 55CL longboard, but decided to go with the 6'4" so as not to lose too much length. Mr. E, PLACEBO " DIABLO-X " FLEXLITE-ULTIMATE was selected. He used the board he was given for about a year, but when he borrowed a DIABLO-X from Hiroki at Luvsurf and tried it out at the beach, he found it to be quick to paddle and easy to take off, so he came to the store to look at the 5'9" size board, which he thought was best for him, and purchased it.
