Ride a PLACEBO surfboard! We'd like to introduce you to the Shirakawa family, a three-generation surfing family.
We would like to introduce you to the Shirakawa family, a three-generation surfing family. This is a man who lives in Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture, and goes to the beach only on weekends. I'm Hiroki Shirakawa, 36 years old, and I'm a salaryman and AM team rider. He has been surfing for 28 years and is adept at riding not only shortboards but also longboards. Love Surf team rider. 5'6" " GOBLIN-SPRINT " 5'10" EL-DIABLO PLUS I use a 5'10" ORCA depending on the wave. Hiroki's only son is this boy, Riito, who just turned five years old. It's been about a year since I started going to the beach on weekends with my dad, Hiroki. Recently, I went to ride my favorite train, "ORCA" I became so fond of surfing that I started asking to go to the beach myself. My dad pushed me to master the takeoff technique almost 100%. He wants to be able to paddle and ride the waves himself. And this is Riito's grandfather, Yuji. He is 60 years old and is a veteran surfer with 40 years of experience. He started surfing on a shortboard, but as he got older he became a longboarder. However, a few years ago, he received a PLACEBO CQ EL DIABLO as a birthday gift, and that's when he got back into shortboarding. He's a super old man. Yuji Shirakawa, 60 years old Daiki Shirakawa, 36 years old Shirakawa Risen, 5 years old There aren't many families where three generations of parents and children have been surfing. We have introduced the Shirakawa family to you all. Surfing is so much fun when you get in the ocean with your family and friends! I hope you all enjoy surfing over the New Year holidays!

At 5'6", it's a little long for a Kolohe, but like Dane, I ride with a traction pad attached right up to the tail. The traction pads I had put on were too far forward, so I ended up peeling them off after riding a few times. He commented that he felt better when he placed his hind legs in a position where they were resting on the leash cup! So Kolohe is also in this position! Everyone! Here are some tips to help you ride the RNF-RETRO successfully! So, be sure to check out the new LOST TV show "Kolohe Andino" + " RNF-RETRO "! It's amazing!!!

Learn moreWhich members of LOST Team MENS joined the WSL World Tour in 2019?
First of all, this person was at the top of the LOST team. 2018 Overall Ranking 11th place "Kolohe Andino" I haven't won yet, so I'm looking forward to 2019. The second is one of the most Brazilian fighters in the WT. 2018 Overall Ranking 15th place "Michael Rodriguez" He had some good surfing in the challenging waves of Hawaii, so I hope he continues to do well in 2019. The third player had a good record as a rookie. 2018 Overall Ranking 18th place "Griffin Colapinto" I believe he will learn a lot in his first year and move up the rankings in 2019 towards his goal of becoming a world champion. The fourth rider was selected to remain in the team after placing fifth at the final race, Pipeline. 2018 Overall Ranking 21st: "Yago Dora" I didn't participate in the qualifying league QS series, so I didn't have any points. He had no choice but to win the final WT match, but it was good that he achieved such a good result. The fifth rider finished fifth at the final race, Pipeline, and was selected to stay, just like Yago. Joanne Drew, ranked 22nd overall in 2018, also participated in the qualifying league QS series as a backup, but there were concerns that her performance in the QS series did not give her enough points to enter the WildTrail, and it wasn't clear until the final tournament, but as expected, she has made it. He loves LOST surfboards' competition models " Driver " and " Pocket Rocket ." The five athletes who competed in WT in 2018 will continue to compete in WT in 2019, so please support them!
Learn moreVideos and photos of Dane Reynolds riding the RNF-RETRO, the bike everyone wants to ride!
Anyone who rides LOST right now wants to ride this! Videos and photos of Dane Reynolds riding the RNF-RETRO have been released! This video is part of a project called "Acid Test" by the US web magazine STAB. This project involves famous surfers riding boards that have no markings or shaper signatures and giving their impressions. This time, Dane Reynolds was chosen. In the past, Julian Wilson played that role and chose a board that wasn't sponsored by him as his number one choice, and Jordy Smith was also given the role and after riding a variety of boards, he realized that there were many boards that worked well for him and ended up changing his sponsor's board. This time the plan was to ride the popular twin fin FISH board. Dane Reynolds is from the generation that grew up watching LOST videos, so he owns an RNF model, and has publicly stated that if he could only own one surfboard, it would be the LOST RNF. It's well known in the industry that he still has his own LOST "RNF" model in his garage, so if he used an RNF model it would be obvious that it was a MAYHEM board, so Mayhem shaped a different model, the "RNF-RETRO," for him. I prefer QUAD fins over TWIN fins. Mayhem said, Dane Reynolds, Wait a sec! Is there MAYHEM in here? It's funny that you say that! This "acid test" was filmed before the release of "RNF-RETRO"! Now, take a look at how great the RNF-RETRO is! https://stabmag.com/stabcinema/watch-dane-reynolds/

Check out this photo of Nishii riding the RNF-RETRO model. Recently, in the southern Chiba area, on the days Nishii surfs, there have been continuous swells from the north and east, so there are a lot of waves to the left, which naturally means he's doing a lot of backside riding. The backside RNF-RETRO model is in great condition! Considering that Mason Ho was recently seen riding big waves on the backside at Pipeline in Hawaii on this RNF-RETRO model, it's safe to say that this model can be ridden almost anywhere in Japan, where the wave size and quality are slightly larger than usual. The standard FISH board designs that are being released one after another by other domestic and international brands to jump on the trend have twin fins, and we're starting to hear complaints that they are actually difficult to ride, but LOST's ``RNF-RETRO'' model can be ridden with a QUAD fin setting, so it's designed to be easy to ride without wobbling, not being too loose, and having drive. This is the widest board in the RNF series, a trusted design that LOST has been developing for over 20 years, so it is extremely stable, but contrary to its appearance, it is also very agile, which is why it is called a ``wolf in sheep's clothing''! These photos were taken last Friday. The photographer was Div Yamatani, who has joined Luvsurf as an official photographer. The combination of the flexible cork material of "RNF-RETRO" and "C4" matches very well, so I highly recommend it to everyone! The C4 cork + epoxy deck surface is very durable! You can find the ready-to-ride RNF-RETRO model here !
