Learn moreToday was the last day of filming, but we encountered the best waves.
Last night the wind stopped, To be able to shoot at the best time for the early morning waves We left the hotel before dawn and encountered the best waves of the day. There was a certain size, but when we took off, the waves were not so big that they would rise up. The waves were the kind of thing that an old man who needs to paddle would like, I chose the LOST 5'5" "LAYZ POTATO" model, which seemed to suit me best, and went surfing. The shoulders are stretched, so the driving performance of the "LAYZ POTATO" model is I was able to surf through even the damper waves. Today was the last day of filming. Driver and guide "Dorian" Video cameraman "Uni" To the director and filming staff who accompanied us from Japan, Thank you for your hard work! * Posted by Luvsurf .
Learn moreToday Nishii got up early and went to Varian to take some photos early in the morning.
I got up early and went to Balian to take some photos early in the morning. The main wave here is a slow left break, I also tried surfing the right side right where it breaks during low tide. The shoot took place over the course of a day, with the four boards being ridden by the models to suit their riding style. These are the four. I'm 5'2" and my COUCH POTATO size felt like it was turning too tight in the head-chest section. I felt good on the inside of my knees and hips. 5'5" LAYZ POTATO People watching said this was the one with the most speed and spray. 5'8" SUB DRIVER-JP The movement was fast and the board turned quickly, so I was able to ride agilely in all aspects. 5'8" CONQUEST EL-DIABLO Quick takeoff and stable ride. I'm looking forward to tomorrow as the waves are forecast to be a little bigger.
Learn moreThe boards Nishii rode in Bali today were the 5'8" SUB-DRIVER-JP and the 5'2" COUCH POTATO.
Waves at various points, I took the time to check it out, First up today is surfing at Kuramasu. The board he rode was a LOST 5'5" "LAYZ-POTATO" in Polyester Resin Tint Color. Nishii's bike is the LOST 5'8" SUB-DRIVER-JP XTR-FX. Photographer Uni-kun is taking photos across the mouth of the Kuramasu River. Shortly after entering the water, a strong onshore wind started blowing. Later today I also did some photography offshore at Halfway. The board I rode was the LOST 5'2" "COUCH-POTATO" in Polyester Resin Tint Color. I'll get up early again tomorrow to check the waves and report back on my Bali photos!

For users who ride TABLET or TABLETII models, this is a great second board for small waves. This is a spare board that has been developed to be ridden in different waves. The paddle and take-off performance is better than the TABLET and TABLETII models, as they are designed for riding in small waves. It will surpass. The short length and rounded outline fit the small waves and spin around. Try out its ability to maintain speed without slowing down. This board is very advantageous for catching waves at crowded surf points, As you can see in this photo, this is a board that will catch all the waves and become the center of attention. If you ride the FISHQUEST II, you can catch more waves than ever before. Please surf without monopolizing the waves! The takeoff is quick, but the nose rotates smoothly, demonstrating the agility of the aircraft. Check out Chucky's riding video. [vimeo]https://vimeo.com/96214865[/vimeo] * Posted by Luvsurf .

Luvsurf TV:LOST 『V2-SB』Kei Kobayashi Rider: Kei Kobayashi Board used: LOST 『V2-SB』 POLYESTER FILM: Koji Nishii EDIT: TABRIGADE Kei, who is growing up as a member of a group of young surfers representing San Clemente, has recently become fond of the LOST V2-SB model. Even in the crowded and fiercely contested waters of the local surfing spot, Trestles, the board has more volume at the front than the WHIPLASH model that I've been riding frequently, so it seems like it's easier to paddle quickly and catch waves. He is very good at keeping his balance by always putting one hand on the water when turning, so when I ride the V2-SB, Please use this as an example. Carving turns can also be performed with the V2-SB by leading with your front hand in this position. The rate of make-up after air reverse is high, I'm practicing with the V2-SB model so that I can fly higher and spin faster. This position aims for the air section at the bottom, Try using your eye position as a model when riding the V2-SB model. Now, take a look at this riding.

New Luvsurf TV: Placebo “NEW RIPQUEST” TODD HUTTON Rider: Todd Hutton Board used: Placebo 5'8" "NEW RIPQUEST" FLEXLITE-TURBO FILM: Koji Nishii EDIT: TABRIGADE FILM A new character has appeared! Todd, a big guy with a big belly. However, thanks to the performance of the new RIPQUEST model, surfing is light and easy. The performance of the "NEW RIPQUEST" model was demonstrated by its ability to smash the lip rhythmically even in small waves. Check out the riding. He seemed a bit worried about the 5'8" size, but when he tried it out, he was surprised at how good it felt. He was surprised and commented that he was impressed. It has a series of sharp lip actions and spins 360 degrees. As you can see, this big spray-up hack turn is also a part of the "NEW RIPQUEST" model. This proved the board's excellent balance. With a body larger than Chucky's, he nimbly controls the "NEW RIPQUEST" model. Please see the video of him surfing small waves here. [vimeo]https://vimeo.com/96065839[/vimeo] * Posted by Luvsurf .
