This is an undercover report on the Lost Surfboard Factory in San Clemente.
Posted by Luvsurf . The brightly colored boards that have been popular since last year were seen everywhere in the factory. The stripes and polka dots are a 70's design and color. Terry Singh, the LOST surfboard airbrusher familiar to readers of the 24 blog, painted this board freehand using an airbrush. It is Cocoho's personal board. This is a skull and flare design, drawn in the finest detail using Terry's signature freehand painting technique. This is a work by LAYZ GRINGO, which we introduced the other day. This design is also resin work, not airbrushed or painted. This is a work by LAYZ GRINGO, who was inspired by LUCKY BUSTERS. This board has the same design and color as LOST's most popular board shorts this year . It's simply a combination of two colors, but depending on the colors you combine, it can look very stylish. This is the 2014 version of JW Design. There are many other beautiful color boards, but I will refrain from revealing them because LOST's cutting-edge designs are quickly copied. FCS II plugs have become common in California. The previous FCS/FUSION plugs cannot be used, so please do not specify this when ordering. FCS II will be the world standard plug from now on.

Nishii is in CALIFORNIA. The water temperature is cold and I'm wearing a 3x2mm full suit. When I went to LOWERS, Kolohe was there. The board is apparently a DRIVER model. Kolohe is currently focused on his next game here at the Lowers. I brought two boards and rode them interchangeably. They were FCSII plugs. As you all know, Kolohe is also a FU WAX user. World Junior Champion Caio Iberi from Brazil, who uses FU WAX, was there and showed off some cool surfing skills. Dad Dino Andino also paddled out. Kolohe was surfing for quite some time today. It's not just about the duration, but also about selecting the waves that will give you the highest score within that time from the most crowded peaks. They practiced and had their personal cameraman, Noah Alani, videotape everything. Apparently the waves have been small for the past few weeks, and there were a lot of good surfers in the ocean, from WCT level to WQS top level, including local kids. It's hard to catch a wave, Nishii had a great time surfing on the 5'2" COUCH POTATO, which has a fast takeoff. The fins are WARD5 fins in a QUAD setting.

Learn moreTEAM Luvsurf "Kei Kobayashi" Latest video from Nicaragua!
I just recently returned from a month-long surf trip to San Clemente, California. TEAM Luvsurf's Kei Kobayashi introduces the latest surf video filmed in Nicaragua. Nicaragua is such a tropical place. It goes into the barrel and comes out all the time. Is it the quality of the waves? The speed is really high. Maybe because he's surfing in board shorts, he's light and his air is high and he spins quickly. It was a great practice to surf in a place with good waves. To barrel in with a backhand grab rail, you need to be able to read the timing with the wave. At this age, you've already learned it. And then the layback huck turn in the closeout section! That's amazing. I improved my skills by doing upswings and accelerating inside the tube. Now, let's take a look at how much you've improved. [vimeo]http://vimeo.com/72321151[/vimeo]
