Mr. A, LOST "SUPER DIABLO" BLACK DART was chosen. We are currently rebuilding Love Surf's POS register system, and the contractor who developed the system came to our store for a meeting. When they saw the SUPER DIABLO BLACK DART in the store, they liked it overall for its design, performance, and durability, and decided to buy it. Mr. B, LOST "BABY BUGGY" POLYESTER was chosen. He rides many LOST performance boards, including the "V2-SB," "SUB BUGGY," and "BEACH BUGGY." Of these, the "V2-SB" and "BEACH BUGGY" are his recent favorites, and he purchased the "BABY BUGGY" because it combines the best features of both models. Mr. C said, You chose the LOST "BABY BUGGY" CARBON WRAP. He currently rides a " SHORT ROUND " XTR, but was very interested in the "CARBON WRAP," which is known for its softer flex and stronger rebound. He came all the way from the Sea of ​​Japan area to see it in person. He chose the "BABY BUGGY," which allows for action in a wide range of waves and conditions. Mr. D, LOST chose the V3-STEALTH CARBON WRAP. He loves the " SHORT ROUND " model, but had been thinking about riding a new free surf model that can handle a wider range of conditions, and had been interested in the "V3-STEALTH" ever since its release was announced. He visited our store this time, saw the newly arrived board in person, and made an immediate decision. Mr. E, LOST chose the V3-STEALTH CARBON WRAP. Our staff member Yuji was one of the first to get his hands on the R-4channel board as soon as it arrived. The popular section on the Luvsurf website, "Yuji's Riding Review Report," has already been published, so please take a look and use it as reference. His surfing skill is about the same as many of you, at an intermediate level, so it will be helpful! Everyone! Come visit us! Lots! Thank you for purchasing our new "LOST Surfboard"!

A day in the life of Ichi Watanabe, who is currently training to surf in California.

First thing in the morning, I went to LOST Surfboards headquarters to order my next board. My senior colleague, Shou, who is very knowledgeable about kids' surfboard sizes, gave me some advice. A commemorative photo with the Kolohe board that was in the head office. The 5'11" KA DRIVER model on the left will be arriving at Luvsurf in the next month or so. If you are interested or want one, please feel free to contact us! LOST Surfboard TEAM riders taking a commemorative photo in front of the surfboard rack. What Ichi discovered was This is a brand new CARBON WRAP from Noah Beschen. The model was the classic "SUB-DRIVER"! From LOST Surfboards HQ, Hurry up! I went to LOWERS to practice. The waves were small but there were chest high sets. It was around noon, so it was pretty quiet and we were able to catch a lot of waves in a short amount of time. I've been riding this "POCKET ROCKET" model since yesterday when the waves got smaller. The CARBON WRAP is working really well. @ichi_watanabay He posted on his Instagram that he is feeling so good he doesn't want to tell anyone about it. When Ichi came out of the water, he said he wanted to eat french fries. When he sees a Ferris wheel, he says he really wants to ride it, He's still a cute 10-year-old boy.

PLACEBO's V3-ROCKET FLEXLITE-HYPER is in great shape!

Today, PLACEBO 『V3-ROCKET』 FLEXLITE-HYPER I took some photos of Chucky in top form. "Chucky" has been riding this board every day, I've gotten used to it and it's going great. Taylor Knox was in the water, and Chucky was in top form. When he saw the board, he said, "That's the famous MAYHEM PLACEBO!" Apparently, KINGER has been riding the SHORT ROUND a lot, and it's become a hot topic in this area of ​​California. Nowadays, with social media, you can see what kind of boards different surfers are riding, The PLACEBO is only sold in Japan, so it's rare to see one in California, so it stands out. If he fails, Chucky will pose like this. He is charming and entertains the photographer like a comedian. After the session, everyone was watching the footage, begging for it to be shown. Last year, in 2016, the PLACEBO V3-ROCKET was a popular model produced in limited quantities and sold out in sizes from 5'7" to 5'11". The 2017 FLEXLITE-HYPER model is expected to sell out quickly, so be sure to consider purchasing one soon!

Ride it in QUAD! PLACEBO's V3-ROCKET FLEXLITE-HYPER is the best!

I photographed Chucky in Huntington Beach. The board I rode was the PLACEBO V3-ROCKET FLEXLITE-HYPER . To Chucky, who always surfs with tri-fins, I also suggested trying QUAD. It was a foggy day, but we still had a barrel ride like this! When I changed to QUAD fins, it became loose and the tail rotated like this. The QUAD accelerates after takeoff by turning with four fins. Even in short waves, there are plenty of opportunities to try airs like this. Chucky wipes out happily. Just like Chucky, I hope you enjoy surfing with a smile on your face and a good board. Chucky's trademark is the front side carving. With QUAD fins, you'll look like a completely different person turning. Just by changing the fins, I became a different person when it came to surfing. Some people say they can't tell even if they change the fins, Fin settings are important, so try out different ones. If your board is in good condition, you can ride lots of waves and have fun! Chucky is moving around in a wobbly way! I was doing so well that everyone was paying attention to me. Looking back in the upper right corner is former WCT player and US Open champion Brett Simpson. Ride with QUAD fins! PLACEBO's "V3-ROCKET" FLEXLITE-HYPER is the best!
