We have a collaboration model between the No. 1 surf skate brand "CARVER" and the top surfboard brand "LOST"!
"Surf skating" has been established as a culture in its own right. Because it is equipped with a special track, you can practice surfing movements repeatedly on land, making it a popular and valuable land training item for us surfers. We are pleased to introduce a collaboration model between CARVER, the most popular surf skate brand among many others, and LOST, a top surfboard brand that has sent many riders to the championship tour. The CARVER uses special trucks that allow the front truck to swing left and right, so it can move forward without pushing on flat ground as well as on slight inclines. CARVER is also great for checking and correcting your riding form. Have you ever compared your or your friends' surfing with surfskating? It's so similar that it's shocking. Unlike the ocean, there is no need to wait for waves, so it is very easy to film your riding form, which is a great advantage for surfers as it makes it easy to check and correct your form. The USA SURF TEAM also uses CARVER for their surfing practice! [ap_show_item 75112] [ap_show_item 75110] [ap_show_item 75108] [ap_show_item 75106] [ap_show_item 75104] [ap_show_item 58762]

These are the marks posted in MAYHEM's shaping room. Before printing, place it on a surfboard to check the size. It is printed on a transparent sheet. This is a board that was shaped in Mayhem's shaping room. These boards have been colored and are about to be transported to the various glass factories. In the control office inside the factory, Preparations were underway for production of a custom-order board from Japan called the Red Card. These were also boards that had been shaped and were then distributed to each glass factory. These are the just arrived "ARCTIC Blanks". There are two main types: green and yellow. The tip of the nose is colored. It's hard to see because it's tilted, This is a poster of surfers from San Clemente from quite some time ago. Now you are all at an age where you can be called legends. This is the "AKU Machine." LOST owns two of these machines to cut the blanks. There is also an "AKU machine" in our Japanese factory that produces MADE IN JAPAN QUALITY products. Nishii reports from the LOST Surfboards California headquarters factory!

Learn moreFor beginners to learn surfing safely! For intermediate and advanced surfers, the ORCA model allows you to relax and enjoy surfing even when the waves aren't great. All sizes are available now!
It arrives in stock every year and sells out. The classic PLACEBO model "ORCA" keeps on selling out and is now available in all sizes! PLACEBO ORCA is a soft top board that is perfect for kids and beginners, as well as intermediate and advanced surfers. Unlike the so-called sponge boards that have been on the surfboard market in recent years, which are cheap but that people get tired of after using them a few times and stop riding, this board is shaped using the ``center stringer EPS foam'' used in standard surfboards, and the deck surface is glass with two layers of 4oz + 6oz cloth and epoxy resin. Bamboo is attached on top of that, and then a soft top is attached on top of that, making it a very labor-intensive surfboard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h39-h6H2Dnk Unlike ordinary sponge boards, the inside and bottom surface of the PLACEBO ORCA are the same as a regular surfboard, so you can ride like in the movies. The fin system uses FCS II plugs, so you can use the fins you already own! The deck surface of the PLACEBO ORCA is covered with PVC rubber, which absorbs shock, making the surfboard very strong and providing a firm grip when wet, so no wax is required. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K69Ue3aJTsk&list=TLGGBdKVvSuOEUwxNTAyMjAyMg It takes off very quickly and picks up speed easily once you've taken off, giving you plenty of room to enjoy surfing even in small conditions!
