Thank you so much! We are accepting an unprecedented number of LOST custom orders!

During his stay in California, Nishii visited almost every day. Visit the LOST Surfboard Factory The detailed instructions to MAYHEM were: These are custom orders we received from Japan with gratitude. This is the custom order you have specified. The rails are thin and the board finish is light. We can meet your requests, such as prioritizing CL value rather than thickness value. We want to make this the only Magic custom order board in the world. I gave detailed instructions that were annoying to MAYHEM.

Breaking news! The ultimate all-around model "RNF'96" that sells out immediately after arriving has arrived at Love Surf!

2021 marks the 25th anniversary of the release of the legendary masterpiece "Round Nose Fish," and the new model "RNF'96" has been released. It has become such a popular model that it is rarely available in stores as a stock board, and you can only get it by pre-ordering... The long-awaited "RNF'96" airbrushed Love Surf has arrived from LOST Factory in San Clemente, California! The RNF'96 has been praised by CT tourers and average surfers alike, both domestically and internationally, including Kolohe Andino, Griffin Colapinto, Yago Dora, Carissa Moore, and world champion Gabriel Medina, who is sponsored by other brands. The model that paved the way for MAYHEM to become a world-class shaper and designer was the Round Nose Fish. At a time when narrow, thin, potato chip-like surfboards with sharp, pointed noses were the mainstream, surfers like Chris Ward, Corey Lopez, and Andy Irons were riding the revolutionary fishtail surfboards with rounded noses from Hawaii's reef breaks to beach breaks, an unthinkable feat at the time, and it shocked the world! It's a well-known story that Pro Nishii had a fateful encounter with Round Nose Fish in California, fell in love with it, and it led to him signing a distribution contract with MAYHEM in Japan! I'm sure there are many readers of this blog who have had the best rides on the "Round Nose Fish" of all time! I am one of them www I have ridden every model named "RNF" over the years, and it has never failed me! As I wrote in my blog the other day, the model is well-balanced and easy to surf, so when I ride the RNF'96, I feel great and it makes me feel like I've leveled up! "When it comes to surfboards, I only ride high-performance models with pointed noses, no matter what the conditions!" The RNF'96 is a must-ride for discerning surfers! It's very important to use a surfboard that suits the conditions of the day! Even the competitors on the CT Tour don't just ride the ``DRIVER2.0'' or ``SUB DRIVER2.0''. If you've never ridden RNF'96 before, you should definitely give it a go! You'd definitely be missing out if you didn't ride the RNF series in your surfing life! Check out the newly arrived "RNF'96" >>>here!

We are receiving a steady stream of orders for fully custom-made wetsuits. The "Love Surf Wetsuit Order Fair" will run until October 31st!

As we enter October, full wetsuit orders are gaining momentum! As expected, the most popular neck system this year is the "long chest zip"! It is popular among users who want to minimize water intrusion and enjoy a comfortable surfing experience even in the middle of winter. What's included in the "Love Surf Wetsuit Order Fair"? 10% of the price normally charged for ordering a full-size wetsuit will be waived! For example, if you purchase a wetsuit that costs ¥120,000, you will get ¥12,000 free! What's more, we're giving away two COOL and two COLD bottles of the magical wax "FU WAX," which has firmly captured the hearts and feet of so many surfers, including not only CT tourers but also QS surfers and JPSA pro surfers - so many that it would be impossible to list them all! The brand that can be ordered at Love Surf is Love Surf's original wetsuit brand "ANCHOR", designed for Japanese surfers by Love Surf's boss, Pro Nishii, and manufactured by CYBER WETSUITS. The CYBER Shield Wetsuits are worn by Love Surf rider and competitor Kei Kobayashi, who travels around the world.

You can order from six brands. As soon as the Love Surf Wetsuit Order Fair began, wetsuits that had been ordered by customers have been arriving one after another from various wetsuit brands. However, we expect that the delivery times for full custom wetsuit orders will continue to get longer in the future, so we recommend that those who are planning to order place their order as early as possible.
