Here's a report from another ride on the SHONAN WARRIOR, which has been a big hit in the small waves since the New Year holidays.

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. It's been almost half a month since the start of 2022, but the waves in Chiba haven't been getting any bigger and there have been many days of poor conditions... Every day I was able to go to the beach, the conditions were small... Since my last ride of 2021 until today, I have been riding almost exclusively the ``SNONAN WARRIOR'' lol. This is because with a normal shortboard, you can barely take off and push it a little to the side, which is a 15-point condition, but with the SHONAN WARRIOR, you can take off from the swell stage, maintain speed even in the middle section where the water doesn't really pick up, and even get some action in the inside sections, which is a 30-40-point condition! There were plenty of waves that day, but the conditions were thick and the water was breaking slowly, and even for advanced surfers, the occasional set was so intense that it was difficult to make a single forceful move, and there were very few surfers around, so without hesitation I chose the SHONAN WARRIOR and got in the water. The size had gone down a little since I was checking the waves, and they were only about waist high with knee and thigh sets, but SHONAN WARRIOR was still amazing! I caught 16 waves in the first hour, which is more than one every five minutes! Moreover, I took off from the middle section on most of the waves, made turns, and did some light action on the inside sections, riding right up to the point of landing, which was very tiring lol There have been many days with small waves this winter season, and even on days when you could be heading to the beach, you might not feel like going because the waves are too small. Furthermore, even if you go to the beach, if you spend a lot of time floating in the cold water waiting for waves, it's cold and boring, right? With "SHONAN WARRIOR" you can ride the waves so much that you don't have time to rest, so your body will be warm and you'll get tired in a good way! [ap_show_item 9628] [ap_show_item 9584] [ap_show_item 62967] [ap_show_item 80257] After trying out various fin settings, I found that the ``MR/Twin Stabilizer'' is the best fin setting for small waves. It's looser than a tri-fin, but in small waves it gives a good feel. The XL size combines slightly upright side fins with a small stabilizer in the center, making it extremely maneuverable, and it pairs perfectly with the thick, wide, and short "SHONAN WARRIOR"! Take a look! The hidden "double concave babel bottom" in this bottom! Of course, it's not just the bottom shape that's good; it's also because MAYHEM has planned and created a variety of mechanisms for Japanese users, resulting in a well-balanced finish! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aq8InaCoMt4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jI61zaABLs4 I thought that because SHONAN WARRIOR is so much fun, I might end up surfing at spots with smaller waves rather than spots with bigger ones for a while.

Now a standard item for surfers, the sold-out "SURF EARS 2.0" is back in stock.

These are earplugs that most surfers in the lineup use now. Surfer's ear occurs when people with a long history of surfing experience experience the cold ocean water, especially during the winter season, causing the bones inside the ear to grow larger, shrinking the ear canal and, in the worst cases, making it impossible to hear. There is no way to completely prevent surfer's ear, but wearing earplugs while surfing can be quite effective. SURF EARS3.0 are high-performance earplugs that let you hear sound but block water. They were made by surfers for surfers, so even those who have avoided earplugs in the past because they couldn't hear the sounds and voices around them can use them without any discomfort. SURF EARS 3.0 comes in a high-quality, zipperless case that makes it easy to access. Because these items are made by surfers, the packaging uses recycled materials and vegetable inks to reduce environmental impact. SURF EARS 3.0 are expensive earplugs, so the damage would be immeasurable if you were to lose them! But don't worry! It comes with an adjustable leash to prevent it from getting lost! The leash design has been updated for quick and easy attachment and removal, and the left and right plugs are color-coded for easy identification. I don't think kid surfers will often take the initiative to wear earplugs, but what's inside your ears doesn't matter whether you're an adult or a child! Please make sure kids with long ears wear earplugs! SURF EARS comes with four sizes of silicone soft tips and two sizes of wings, so it can be used by kids surfers too! [ap_show_item 2798] Earplugs not only help prevent "surfer's ear," but it's rumored that once you get used to them, they can also improve your concentration and have a positive effect on your riding!

Chiba has been experiencing small waves every day...but even with those small waves, you can still have fun surfing depending on your surfboard!

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. This year's New Year's holiday in Chiba was mostly in low-energy conditions... However, thanks to "SHONAN WARRIOR" that I introduced the other day, I was able to catch a lot of waves and had a very satisfying New Year's holiday! I once again realized that it is important to choose a surfboard that suits the conditions of the day, so this time I will introduce a model that can be enjoyed even in small conditions that continue day after day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cG86rVLhlpU&list=TLGGGP7DJ5VhM1gwNDAxMjAyMg&t=5s "RNF-ULTRA" There is no doubt that anyone reading this blog is familiar with the "RNF-ULTRA," a Japan-exclusive model that is a refined version of the "Round Nose Fish" aimed at adults. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlywVc0XOI4&list=TLGGhkCW4WRYTN0wNDAxMjAyMg The RNF-ULTRA has the same length as the Round Nose Fish but does not have a significantly increased liter capacity, making it an all-around model that can handle everything from small conditions to head-over-head waters overseas. For more information on "RNF-ULTRA", please click here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hhncn5ySpE4&list=TLGGlDh9YFDHGfkwNDAxMjAyMg "PARTY CRASHER" You can ride the waves even at crowded spots! The second installment of the LOST mid-length series from MAYHEM. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90nVodFRBI0&list=TLGGB5K9OC9TcBEwNDAxMjAyMg The PARTY CRASHER has been lengthened and rocker adjusted to pursue speed in paddling and take-off, while at the same time narrowing the width and balancing the tail shape to achieve the excellent maneuverability that is characteristic of LOST, allowing you to enjoy surfing regardless of the rider or conditions. For more information about "PARTY CRASHER", click here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nmw77C2soA0&list=TLGGpKK47cMLaU0wNDAxMjAyMg "SMOOTH OPERATOR" The SMOOTH OPERATOR was designed for MAYHEM himself so that he could enjoy surfing even in gentle spots where it is difficult to put strain on the shoulders, such as the places he goes to when surfing with his children. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9_FJNX4qUU&list=TLGGO5T0RHyAV-gwNDAxMjAyMg The SMOOTH OPRATOR is LOST's first mid-length board, and it has performed so well that even MAYHEM, the company that produced this model, was surprised, scoring big waves on an overseas trip that would be unthinkable in Japan.

I don't want the lineup of the places I frequent to be filled with "SHONAN WARRIOR," so I won't explain any further. For more information about "SHONAN WARRIOR", please click here! I often hear people say things like, "I'm not very good at surfing, so it doesn't matter what kind of surfboard I ride," or their wives say things like, "You can't tell the difference between surfboards, so don't buy one!", but I can assure you that this is absolutely not true! Using the right surfboard for your level and conditions will definitely improve your level and give you lots of fun! If you choose one that suits your needs, a surfboard will definitely help you!
