The RNF-EVOLUTION will ride well if you relax and ride it slowly and gracefully!

I checked out the waves in the San Clemente area, which had gotten even smaller. In the morning, the waves are thick because of the high tide. I rode the PLACEBO 5'8" RNF EVOLUTION FLEXLITE-BOOST. Even in Nishii, which is sensitive to cold, the water temperature is about spring-like. Foreigners, who feel the temperature differently, surf naked. It's midsummer in California and the water is at its warmest right now. For FU WAX, we applied TROPICAL over BASE and then WARM to ensure perfect grip. The fins are FCS2 REACTOR M size on the front, The QUAD rear is equipped with a CARVER M-size side fin type . The RNF EVOLUTION is a board that can be ridden on adult lines, If you relax and ride slowly and gracefully, you will be able to ride well. Turns should be done slowly and carefully, without rushing. Please don't make any sudden movements. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/store/33097 / The RNF EVOLUTION is popular and currently only available in 5'8" and 6'3" sizes. This item will not be available this year, so please consider purchasing it soon. In particular, the 6'3" size is a rare size with only a few left! You can draw large lines, so if you focus on riding gracefully, you will look skilled. These rides were recorded on video, so stay tuned for the release!

"FLEXLITE-BOOST" is undoubtedly the best flex performance of any PLACEBO board!

PLACEBO 5'8" "CONQUEST EL-DIABLO" FLEXLITE-BOOST This morning I went to Oceanside Harbor with Asaka and Yamane from Kokumin Tsumama, who help us sell FU WAX . The waves were breaking gently from offshore, so Nishii decided to ride his recently acquired personal board, the PLACEBO 5'8" CONQUEST EL-DIABLO FLEXLITE-BOOST . This morning coincided with high tide, so I would describe the waves as being like a single shell. The size was about waist-chest high. It was a thick high tide wave, and because the waves weren't very steep, it was hard to find a section to rip, but the CONQUEST EL-DIABLO was able to pick up speed, so while surfers on other thin competition models struggled, Nishii was able to make turns like this and ride the wave all the way to the inside. I wanted to ride the CONQUEST EL-DIABLO more, so I went to UPPER in the afternoon. The wind is blowing and the waves are not forming nicely, but I would still call it a versatile model. The CONQUEST EL-DIABLO is well-balanced and easy to ride, with no bias in the three performance areas of paddle, take-off, and maneuverability. The front fins are ``KA M size'' and the QUAD rear fins are prototype glass fins of ``the same M size as PF'' that were given to us by FCS for testing before the release of FCS2. The FLEXLITE-BOOST provides the best springback turn of any PLACEBO board when extending from the bottom. If you've ridden a FLEXLITE-TURBO, you'll be able to feel the difference, so be sure to try out the new material and structure of the FLEXLITE-BOOST !

Despite the wind and waves, I rode the LOST ``BEAN BAG'' model all day today.

Today's wind was choppy after yesterday's onshore wind. The waves are similar to those in the Sea of ​​Japan. Despite the wind and waves, I rode the LOST ``BEAN BAG'' model all day today. The BEAN BAG is a short, round board, so you can turn it even in places where the lip isn't too tight. This was the biggest wave Nishii rode today. Once you get used to riding it, you can ride it even at this size. You can ride almost any normal wave size in Japan. But it's a board that makes you want to ride small waves. It makes me want to ride more and more small waves. This is a crazy board that makes you want to ride small waves more than anyone else. It has loose performance that exceeds that of a couch potato. When applying to curls, do not apply too vigorously, but gently. It works well if you put it on and turn it. When you turn at the lip or the top of the wave, your fins will automatically become free. It's fun because you can slide loosely and follow this line across the top. When I got out of the water, this foreigner came running up to me and said, "It was really fast, and I was just surfing the waves that no one else was surfing, I want one too, what model is it?' I told him it was a bean bag from LOST. He said, "My board takes off quickly, but it doesn't go very fast in small waves like today." I explained to him that the tail of his board is thin, so in small waves the waves don't push against the tail and it doesn't go very fast, so that's not to be helped. BEAN BAG http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/24sblog/?p=32049 Here is a list of stock boards that will be in stock by the end of this month.

The BEAN BAG is equipped with a KA size S fin in the front and a PF size M fin in the quad rear.

The waves have gone down in size and are the smallest they've been in the last few days. The waist and abdomen size can be set, and the maximum set size is about the size of the chest, which occurs very occasionally. Asaka test rides the new LOST model "RV" which will soon be available at Luvsurf. It weighs 62 kg, but it has plenty of buoyancy, so I tried riding it and the speed was amazing. It was out and running well. Everyone, please look forward to the first shipment of this popular model from the USA! Nishii will be continuing from yesterday with the PLACEBO 5'8" CQ EL-DIABLO FLEXLITE-BOOST . As you all probably know, this model is a beautifully colored FLEXLITE-CANDY , and I was riding it in the same size, so I could really feel the difference in the board materials, especially the high-rebound performance of the split carbon. BOOST is for those who want to prioritize performance. In the afternoon, the waves broke apart on the side of the shore. I rode the LOST 5'0" BEAN BAG. The fins are set up as [KA size S] in the front and [PF size M] in the quadruple rear . Wow, this model is really interesting. You can take off on small, choppy waves that would normally only be possible with a longboard. It's wide, round and has an ultra-wide tail. The way it glides is unique, instead of descending to the bottom, it takes off and glides like a longboard, gliding sideways and becoming quick and easy. Because it moves loosely, larger fins are recommended. You can float and surf like you're on a UFO! I'll try riding it tomorrow with bigger fins.

The long-awaited PLACEBO 5'8" "CQ EL-DIABLO" FLEXLITE-BOOST! High rebound!

Today I went to LOWERS with Omi-san and others. I was the first to paddle out on LOST's new model 'RV' quad and had a great time. Kei, who is going on a trip for a contest this afternoon, has been practicing since early morning before his flight. I uploaded the ride of that day on Instagram and Facebook, It seemed to be adjusted quite well. He just recently won in Florida, so I'm always looking forward to the results! Nishii is more popular than expected, so the number of units produced is limited. I couldn't ride it as a personal board, I finally got to ride the PLACEBO 5'8" CONQUEST EL-DIABLO ⭐️FLEXLITE-BOOST⭐️! As expected, the high rebound ⭐️ FLEXLITE-BOOST ⭐️ is great! We will start filming videos from tomorrow and deliver riding videos to you all, so please look forward to it!

A report from the "LOST" surfboard factory!

Today I had a meeting with MAYHEM at the LOST surfboard factory. He says he's been getting a lot of orders for the DOS-DIABLO , and is happy that it's getting such a good reputation in Japan. He's confident in the new, thinner size he recently shaped, so he'd like to hear feedback from people who have ridden it. Please try out the slim DOS-DIABLO and give us your feedback! These Mayhem models are potential new TAJ models, with test rides taking place with sizes changed one inch at a time. They may be a different version of the beach buggy. If you're a fan of high-performance boards, this is sure to pique your interest! Here, under the skateboard, you can see various types of carbon. The two split carbons used in the Presto are highly rated, MAYHEM is apparently experimenting with different carbons. Do you remember this ad for LOST? This sugoroku board, which is displayed as a panel, was made by LOST and was also used in their advertisements. Some people may remember it being featured in a double page spread in Surf magazine in Japan. The other one is "Randall Land," and it's interesting to see that some of the characters include Andy Irons, who often rode MAYHEM at the time. I'm sure there are people out there who know these two, and I'm sure they're long-time LOST fans. Kolohe's " SUB-BUGGY " in the shape room This is Carissa's `` SUB-SCORCHER2 ''. Apparently it's a magic board, and people rode it until it was completely worn down. I felt like I was in pretty good shape. Well, I'll report back tomorrow!

He is tall and slim, with a height and weight of 183cm and 62kg. He is an avid surfboard enthusiast who visits San Clemente privately once a year, and is particularly knowledgeable about the mayhem shape designs of LOST and PLACEBO. This spring, he also had the opportunity to visit the LOST surfboard factory, a long-awaited opportunity. In the NSA branch preliminaries, 1991 Junior Champion 1993 Junior Champion 1994 MEN Champion 1995 MEN Champion 1996 MEN Champion 1998 MEN Champion In NSA All Japan, 1999 All Japan (Shikoku) MEN 7th place 2005 All Japan (Shonan Kugenuma) Senior 5th place 1996 2nd Murasaki PARCO CUP (Shidashita) Special Class Winner 1997 3rd Murasaki PARCO CUP (Kamogawa) Special Class 2nd place 1998 4th Murasaki PARCO CUP (Kamogawa) Special Class 3rd place 2002 Murasaki PARCO CUP Special 3rd place, 1999 1st Murasaki Cup in Ise Special Class Winner 09 Purple Staff Competition Winner With such an impressive history of success in competitions, he is adept at explaining how to ride boards that can be used in competitions like the "SHORT ROUND" and explaining the board's performance to customers. The propulsive power of Kohama's "SHORT ROUND" model, which can be seen everywhere, means that even if the waves suddenly become thick while riding, the speed will simply slow down and you will be able to continue riding the waves. If you are an intermediate or advanced rider, you can choose a board that is about 5 inches shorter than the regular board you normally use and still be able to ride comfortably and stably. Choosing a shorter board will make this board's performance stand out even more, so we encourage you to try riding the ``SHORT ROUND'' at a shorter board length than you've ever ridden before. So, it's a good ride on the characteristics of the "SHORT ROUND" model, which moves up and down quickly. Check out Kohama's riding video! [vimeo]https://vimeo.com/135537193[/vimeo]
