The WCT in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, was forced to start today with a deadline of tomorrow. The headphones Taji is using in this photo taken during a long wet day are Skullcandy, a best-selling brand at Love Surf. It's Ward flying on a board with carbon stripes on the bottom. These are Brad Simpson's boards for the WCT Brazil. The longest board is a round pintail. The board this word is on is the popular "SUB-SCORCHER2." It's a great board. It's fast. Give it a try! Mayhem and Mason are having a fun chat. Mason's board hasn't been glassed yet. Cheeseburger and Mason look up at the board rack, wondering which board to get. The rider of the "WHIPLASH-TB" model is Ward. The long-lasting Lost Surf Skate with its aluminum body is a big seller! It will be easy for your grandchildren to ride. Julian was recently photographed in Brazil. Brazil is a beach city, like Hawaii or Australia. Coco's model is the latest popular model , "BEACH BUGGY." This is Corey Lopez's board, but the person looking at it isn't Corey. Kolohe's super high air! It's amazing how high he can fly and land on the water. He's riding a DRIVER board. Mayhem is working hard to shape the show. The closing act is LOST . The person wearing the FUTURE fins is Ward, who had his third child last week. It's a boy. This is Taji from yesterday's R2. Today he faced Kolohe in R3 and won the Mayhem Board Showdown. Mayhem sings in Brazil. Mayhem has been the vocalist since high school. There were 16 unpublished photos.

Learn moreThere will be a test drive event and chilled "FU WAX" at Nakazato Beach in Kita-Chiba.
Today was the annual test ride event for surfboard sales staff from Murasaki Sports stores across the country. As soon as the test ride event started, the LOST&Placeo test ride booth was flooded with people wanting to take the test ride, causing a bit of chaos at the reception desk. The person helping us is Mr. Obama from the Fujisawa store. You can also apply FU WAX as much as you like! In fact, if you apply it correctly, the first coat will last all day. All sizes of 2013 models are available for unlimited use! From 8am until 3pm, everyone rode as hard as they could, as long as they had the energy to do so. The waves were waist-high and easy to ride, so everyone was able to catch a lot of waves. Mr. Itaya Koshi from the Niigata store gave high praise to the V3-ROCKET. Mr. Ashizawa from the product department also took a test ride on the LAYZ ORCA himself. Staff from a Korean store had come from as far away, and there were about 80 people in attendance, so the beach was as lively as a midsummer holiday. Mr. Sugiyama from the Chigasaki store stood out as he skillfully handled the "5'3" couch potato" lifestyle. In addition to LOST and PLACEBO, many other manufacturers were there. Fin and WET shops were also exhibiting. LOST and Placebo were so popular that their boards were not always available at their booths. Two new sizes have been added to the RNF-EVOLUTION, bringing the total to five sizes! "Of course! It's the 5'8" TABLET II," says Miyauchi from the Tsukuba store. Today, I put some FU WAX into an ice bag I bought at a convenience store. Korohe and Shou say that if you store FU WAX in the refrigerator and apply it when it's rock hard, you can apply it more thinly and neatly, so I tried it after cooling it down. It's true that the harder it is, the less you apply, and the smoother it is. As we are approaching the warm season, I think it is a great idea to cool the FU WAX down before applying it to a board that has warmed up in the car, as it will become soft and difficult to apply properly, or you may end up applying an unnecessarily thick layer. If you plan to keep your car closed for long periods of time during warm seasons, we recommend storing FU WAX in a cooler box.

A huge spring shipment has arrived from LOST in San Clemente, CALIFORNIA! Love Surf now has over 300 stockboards in store! "V2-ROCKET" "SUB-DRIVER-JP" "RNF-EVOLUTION" These three models are cork boards with only one stock board in each size! It's flexible, light, and strong. Nishii recommends it. Give it a try. It's fast. It's fast. I guarantee it's a great ride! Arctic's marble color foam version of the "RNF-EVOLUTION" model is running low! The XTR V-FLEX specification of the FISHQUEST2 is thinner than the same model from Placebo, so it is characterized by its lighter movement! The "V2-ROCKET" model is available in a variety of colors, from clear to colored boards! The rapidly growing popular "COUCH POTATO" is a fun board. (It's a secret, but it takes off quickly.) This model is known for its fast takeoff! The ORCA is best ridden in small, crowded waves. The takeoff glide is unbeatable against the weak longboard! If you're surfing, the SUB-DRIVER-JP model is the perfect choice. A comfortable thruster for older guys who want to rip and feel refreshed! LOST's "FISHQUEST2" XTR 3D CARBOLIC model is thicker and more buoyant than the Placebo model, It is designed for smaller waves than Placebo's FISHQUEST2 model, and the paddle moves even faster and it starts running easier. The CONQUEST , made of XTR's high-end material, 3D CARBOLIC, has the same shape and design as the Placebo TABLET. Like the FQ2, it is thick enough that even heavier riders can ride it without any problems, and the paddle moves even faster for takeoff. Unfortunately, production of "RIPQUEST" has been discontinued at Placebo, but it is still available at LOST!!! There are no more gaps in the surfboard racks in the store! We are also constantly receiving new used boards !!! There are many bargains that have not yet been posted on the website! If you're a surfer, just looking at it will be fun, so it's definitely worth checking out to see if there are any boards you can ride. There are plenty more in the store next door, so don't miss out! The SUB-SCORCHER2 model has been highly praised by LOST professional riders both in Japan and abroad. The most popular model of 2013, with many saying they want to ride it, is the "BEACH BUGGY." Since it's Taji's model, at first glance it might seem like a difficult model, but that's not the case. Look at the wide tail and outline - this board is perfect for rough beach breaks. This WHIPLASH-TB model is a sensitive, high-performance board with sharp movements. It's a really cool shape design. This is the "DRIVER" model, which has a bit of buoyancy and volume to give you peace of mind. Clear stock boards are also available! We have a large stock of " Placebo " in stock after Golden Week, and we have all models and sizes! Some sizes have sold out and are so popular that we can't keep up with production. If you would like to compare the actual boards before purchasing, please come and visit us. At Lovesurf, we have an incredible range of stockboards to choose from, with a wide range of models to suit your needs and level. Please feel free to come and talk to us about your next surfboard. All our staff look forward to seeing you!
Learn more"No one will believe it at first, but you should try it," Kolohe said.
Some high-end and adventurous surfers have secret waxes they don't want anyone to know about. When Taj Burrow returned to his hometown of Sydney from the Billabong Pro Brazil in May, The feature wasn't about the runner-up trophy she received in Rio, but about overweight baggage on an airplane. He flew from Brazil to Australia and brought back about 20 kilograms of wax. (Each FU WAX is 75 grams, so that's about 260 pieces!) He now has enough of the secret wax to last him forever. Taj learned about this secret wax from Kolohe Andino and became obsessed. Then, one by one, the secret spread to his friends, and Nat won the Cold Water Classic in Santa Cruz, He gave a passionate speech about the wax. Luke Davis told Kolohe, who didn't know the secret yet. "This is seriously damn amazing! This is the best surf wax I've ever used in the world!" Kolohe ignored Luke's assertion, "This is so fucking amazing! Your wax sucks." That is, until Brazilian surfer Wiggoly Dantos stayed with Kolohe during a Trestles tournament. Wiggory suggested Kolohe try it, and when he did, Kolohe was shocked. "Oh my gosh! I should have listened to Luke sooner. I'm in love with this. It feels like I have traction on my forefoot," Kolohe remembers of his first experience. Is Brazilian wax really that good? "No one will believe it at first." Taj emailed me from Brazil saying, "Where can I buy that wax? I want some of that awesome stuff." "This wax is like a drug. You should try it," Kolohe said. Taj, like many other pro surfers on the tour, used to use Sex Wax (Quick Humps) all the time, but his style has changed. When I asked Brazilian surfer Adriano de Souza, he said casually, "I use hard Sex wax as a base and then Brazilian wax on top. That's the best." He said it wasn't anything to make a big fuss about. Jamie O'Brien reportedly laughed off "their silly wax theory". Jamie told me about the time he saw Evan Geiselman waxing a board and then changing it for another block of wax mid-way through. "Evan picked up another block of wax and looked at me funny as he was applying it, and I said, 'What's with that silly look on your face?' And he said to me, 'It's a secret.'" Do you want it? It's called "FU WAX." It's a little hard to find. How do you create the perfect wax traction? 1. Draw crosses (X marks) all over the board using FU BASE or hard SEX wax. 2. Gently rub the product from the front of the front legs to the tail until small beads form. 3. Switch to FU Wax 4. Apply the wax flat (old school style) and watch as the fibers appear, the grip develops and the wax comes to life. 5. Your surfing demonstrates what's possible in the ocean. FU-san handcrafted these pieces in Brazil, Now, even WCT players, including Kelly, are captivated by this. Get the amazing 3D grip here! http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/store/11847/

Luvsurf TV:LOST “SUB-SCORCHER2” Koji Nishii Rider: Koji Nishii Board used: LOST 5'7" SUB-SCORCHER2 FILM :Hayato Masuda EDIT：TABRIGADE FILM The SUB-SCORCHER2 model is a new beach break board developed by Mayhem in collaboration with Kolohe Andino, designed to move around in small knee- to waist-sized waves. The available sizes are shorter and slightly wider than the "F1-STUB" and "DRIVER". The thickness of the board extends to the nose and tail, Even when riding small, powerless beach break waves, the board has excellent propulsion and allows for high-speed surfing. The super swallow tail and double wings bite into the wave surface, making it easy to perform sensitive initial turns. The rocker is generally flat, but the nose rocker curves up about 30cm from the tip. This board has a wide, thick, and rockered design with a pointed nose that allows you to ride it like a fish board. It is designed for small waves, so it fits well with the wave conditions in Japan. The shape of the board is so high-speed that you can imagine it just by looking at it. The highly popular SUB-SCORHER 2 model, which was sold out for a while until recently, is now fully listed on our website. We have just received new stock, so please take a look and choose from a wide range of sizes.

Luvsurf TV:LOST “DRIVER” POLYESTER Koji Nishii Rider: Koji Nishii Board used: LOST 5'9" 『DRIVER』 POLYESTER FILM: Hayato Masuda EDIT: TABRIGADE FILM This is a high-performance model from Mayhem that can be ridden safely even by people who are a little overweight. When compared at the same dimensions (size), the F1-STUB has more buoyancy than the WHPLASH-TB, another high-performance model. The DRIVER model has even more buoyancy than the F1-STUB model. There isn't much difference between these three models, but they are all capable of handling waves that require buoyancy, so Julian's board selection, which he uses in conjunction with the F1-STUB, is a good example to follow. Nishii often rode the first generation Super Swallowtail model released by DRIVER in 2011 during the winter season of 2011-12, and the second generation Squashtail during the winter season of 2012-13. The buoyancy of the DRIVER helped to cover my weight, even though I was wearing a semi-dry suit, and I was able to surf comfortably. This board is best designed for those who need a little more buoyancy than the F1-STUB. == ...

During that time, I visited a beach break called Salt Creek, This riding video was taken at a surf spot called Northside Pier in San Clemente. The outline is wider than the WHIPLASH-TB model, but thinner than the BEACH BUGGY and SUB-DRIVER. Try to imitate the action of using your long arms and legs to twist the board on both the front and back sides, turn and lip, and return the board quickly. He's timing it well with the wave to gain speed before the frontside air and aim for the air. Please take a look at the movement of the board as it rises onto the backside shield, as you can clearly see that the ``F1-STUB'' model has the performance required for competitors. Developed by Julian Wilson and MAYEHM, it is still used by many team riders today. The F1-STUB model is recommended for competition-oriented surfers who require quick movements. == ...
