The LOST team of Michael Rodriguez and Evan Geiselman are also doing great!
Today's US OPEN saw the fourth round of the MENS event, which had not yet been held. Michael Rodrigues, Brazil Michael Rodriguez, also known as "M-ROD," riding the LOST SUB-DRIVER model "CARBON WRAP," took advantage of the board's bounce to ride every wave from outside to inside, finishing in second place. He didn't seem to be struggling to hit the board as hard as the other surfers to get through the waves, and the double flex of the "CARBON WRAP" made surfing these types of waves a breeze. "Evan Geiselman" USA Florida's small wave warrior, Evan Geiselman, was carving even in the thick outside waves. And on the inside, his strategy seemed to be to successfully perform air reverses to score points, as he did so multiple times. Apparently, the waves in Florida are smaller than in California, so surfers become better at generating speed themselves, and Kelly also hails from the same small Florida waves. Even in Japan, there are many JPSA surfers who excel in small waves in Shonan. In Round 4, last year's winner, Kanoa, took first place, followed by Evan in second place. Because there is a time difference between Japan and the US, by the time this blog is published, Round 5 is scheduled to take place. The four members of the LOST team who have advanced to Round 5 are: "Kolohe Andino" "Griffin Colapinto" "Michael Rodriguez" "Evan Geiselman" Nishii, who is on-site, will report on their Round 5 results in a blog post to be published tomorrow!

Nishii reports from California at the QS10,000 US OPEN! "Kei Kobayashi" V2-GRAINDER Appearing in Heat 1 of Round 3! Of the four people in the heat, the other three were strong competitors from the WT. Perhaps I was too excited, but I was defeated here. This is my best result yet in QS10000, and I've earned prize money and points. "Griffin Colapinto" Driver In Round 3, I was in the same heat as my local senior, Kolohe. He finished in second place and in the following round 4 he shared the same heat as Yago Dora. We rounded up in second place and moved on to Round 5, where it was man-on-man! The waves were very few and small so I was struggling to get a good score. When I caught a good wave, the flow was amazing and I got a good score. "Yago Dora" POCKET ROCKET Round 3 was the same heat as "Kay", He landed a solid frontside air reverse to take first place. However, in the following round 4, in the same heat as Griffin, He was eliminated in third place due to questionable low score judgement. He himself seemed dissatisfied with the score. After the heat, he held up his board as if he had won and showed off his victory. "Kolohe Andino" DRIVER In round 3, he was in the same heat as Griffin, a junior LOST team. He landed a frontside air reverse and a backside three-turn to finish in first place. Although they advanced to Round 4 in second place, their energy to win this tournament was palpable. He was surfing in a cool Californian style. If the judges were to grade each trick more precisely, I think Kolohe would definitely be the best. He was the only surfer out of the many competitors competing without a leash. Others include Brazil's Michael Rodrigues, Evan Geiselman, who is said to be the best in the world at surfing small waves, has moved up to Round 3. I expect their next results will be out by the time this blog is published!

Mr. A, PLACEBO "GOBLIN" Frelxlite Hyper was chosen. He was looking for a board specifically for small waves, so he came to our shop to ask for advice. It was a model he had been interested in for a while, and after comparing boards of the same length, he decided on the number one model for takeoff speed. The PLACEBO is durable, doesn't discolor in the sun, and has good flex, making it especially popular with repeat customers. Mr. B, PLACEBO 5'8" ' EL-DIABLO PLUS ' chose Frelxlite Hyper. He came to our shop wanting an all-around board that could ride a wide range of wave sizes and wave types. He chose this 5'8" EL-DIABLO PLUS Frelxlite Hyper based on the data from boards that had worked well for him up until then. Mr. C said, Placebo 6'2" 『 RE LOADED 』 Frelxlite Hyper selected He came to our shop to switch from a longboard to a shortboard. He was considering the 6'4" board size, but decided that a shorter board would be better, as it would be shorter and easier to adjust to his weight and would allow him to move around more easily, so he chose the shorter, thinner 6'2". Mr. D, PLACEBO 5'10" ' EL-DIABLO PLUS ' Frelxlite LIMITED was selected. This customer has been using the classic TABLET2, a model from the same series, for many years. This time, he came to our store to buy some wax, but when he saw the limited edition model on display, he was so impressed by the texture and finish that he decided to purchase it. Mr. E, PLACEBO 6'4" 『 RE LOADED 』 I chose the Frelxlite Hyper. He has ridden many different MAYHEM boards in the past, but this time he chose the RE-LOADED. Since his home base is a reef point with many small waves, the RE-LOADED PLACEBO is perfect for his needs, as it has excellent small wave performance and is also very strong. He was also pleased that the board is stable and will allow him to play with his children. Thank you everyone for coming to our store and purchasing so many brand new PLACEBO surfboards!
