Learn moreMust-see movie! [Translated] LOST "RNF'96" Mayhem's model explanation video
[Translated] LOST "RNF'96" Mayhem's model explanation video This is the prototype of the Round Nose Fish, released in 1996. It's a special 25th anniversary edition. I wanted to do something to commemorate the 25th anniversary. This original version of the Round Nose Fish It showed Lost and me the path and possibilities we could take. He popularized the round-nose fish around the world. I'd also like to thank Chris Ward, Corey Lopez and the staff at the time. The early version of the round nose fish shaped like a Cory I have a few in storage, and this time I used them as the base. My first priority was to make it as close to the original as possible. Based on the original design and its philosophy I tuned it up bit by bit with the latest design. It's a small detail, but it has a curve that doesn't waste any space. I feel like it's become smoother It's even better than the original Anyway, Cory was riding it in 1996. The base is 5'5"x19 1/4". The idea for this design came from Chris Ward in the fall of 1994. It all started when I said I wanted something like a performance fish. About a year later, the Round Nose Fish was completed. Then in 1996, Corey and Chris discovered the Round Nose Fish. He brought it to Hawaii and became a hot topic. We made a surf movie called "5'5"x19 1/4" using the footage from that time. Why this round-nose fish became such a revolutionary topic That was the fish design at the time. The width of the tail area is incredibly thin. Speaking of Phish in the 1990s, Tommy Peterson's Fireball and Stave Squirrel San Diego Fish Those fish are insanely wide The fishtail made it difficult to maneuver. It was designed for relaxed surfing. In those days, the width of the 12-inch part from the tail The same fish as the performance shortboard has arrived. It's about 14 3/4" or 15" wide. The swallowtail is not extremely narrow, but as you can see, it is not wide either. From here on out, the tail area is almost a performance shortboard outline. The reduced surface area provides good response and high drive performance for sharp movements and turns. This is a performance that is impossible for so-called retro fish. And this latest improved version has a loose tail rocker. However, the combination of a single concave and a V bottom The rail line can be curved considerably The area from the front legs to the tail So even in a tough position on a hard wave, you can react well and do vertical surfing. Acceleration is possible with small upswings even in the tube The rail curve that allows for concave from the center It gives dramatic acceleration The concave increases the rail height. The difference becomes larger as you move towards the tail, creating a rail curve. In contrast, the center stringer line is a gentle curve that is a little flat. So there's speed and acceleration. There is also a moderate amount of nose rocker. Especially around 30cm to 45cm from the tip Carving with rails and taking off on deep waves Can be hit from the backside, frontside, or vertically There's a moderate amount of nose rocker Nose or rails get caught This area in the middle is flat and straight outline So it has speed and acceleration. Explain why the nose and tail There's something I haven't done I did it unconsciously when shaping I had never really noticed it The width of the nose and tail is the same for 30cm. You could call it a double ender Last year I looked back at the stock sizes, from 5'0" to 6'6". I confirmed that the width of the nose and tail at this point is the same. One board has a 38cm nose and tail. A big board has a nose and tail of about 40cm. So what this means is It's a good balance between acceleration and turning. Especially effective when extending turns and accelerating This double ender is what Wayne Lynch and others It's a design that has evolved, and it must have influenced me too. So, I've added a lot of ideas and knowledge. The latest version of the round nose fish was born. The stringer is a thin type with two structures. The board flexes a lot Considering the balance with thin stringers Standard weight foam is used. However, the glassing has been lightened. The top is a single layer of 6 oz., which goes well with the standard foam. The tail is reinforced with 4 oz. Volan cloth. You can see it by looking at it. The bottom side is made of a single layer of 4 oz cloth. I started using Decal last year. A miniature Lost and Mayhem logo that doesn't stand out too much. It's perfect for small surfboards like this. Twin fins or stabilizers available The fins are positioned so that you can ride. This is the Round Nose Fish 96 While recreating the original round nose fish It's a tuned-up version of a design that has evolved over the past 25 years. https://vimeo.com/525451897
