LOST's "POCKET ROCKET" model explanation video released in which MAYHEM himself talks about it!
The Pocket Rocket is Kolohe Andino's signature model. He has been shaping boards for Kolohe since he was a child. Every two to three years, he works on Kolohe's board designs to help him surf the way he wants to surf. In the 2014 season, he achieved his best result to date, placing in the top 10 of the WCT. Kolohe started the 2015 season off right, winning the 6-star Australian Open. But then the WCT started, and he struggled to heat up and wasn't satisfied with his surfing. So he changed his board design to help him surf the way he wanted and get high scores. Kolohe rides a Driver and a Sub-Driver. What he wanted from this board was a little different. We considered the Whiplash, which Taj and many other pro surfers ride, but Kolohe needs more speed for big airs and hard turns. So we lowered the rocker on the Whiplash a little and changed the outline. The prototype for this model was codenamed WGL. I let Kolohe ride it and he loved it. Last year, Kolohe went to France for the WCT, but he hadn't done very well up until then. So I gave him a board with the same concept as WLG and named it the "POCKET ROCKET." While not as rockery as the Whiplash, the rocker was slightly stronger than Kolohe's usual Driver or Sub-Buggy. Riding this board, Kolohe won multiple times in France, even beating Kelly Slater. He continued riding the Pocket Rocket in Portugal, scoring 10 points and placing highly. Both Kolohe and I love the name "POCKET ROCKET." Designed with feedback from world-class rider Kolohe Andino, the board Kolohe chose to ride on the world stage, we want everyone to experience it. That's the 2016 new model, "POCKET ROCKET." https://vimeo.com/162517216

Learn morePlease see where to place the deck pads for "GOBLIN".
Please tell me where to place the deck pad for "GOBLIN" Please take a look at the questions we received from our customers. The LEASH cup in "GOBLIN" is on the side, not in the middle. Most surfers use regular stance "GOBLIN" is on the right side. The deck pad looks like this: If you attach the bottom part to the very edge of the LEASH cup, It's set up just right. If you really want to put it further back, If the kick tail is a large deck pad, If you cut the kick tail part with a cutter and then stick it on like this, You can stick as much as you cut to the back. We recommend cutting it in half at most. This is because the adhesive surface becomes smaller, increasing the chance of it coming off. This is the deck pad attached to Nishii's board "GOBLIN" . Nishii attached the bottom part so that it fit as close as possible to the LEASH cup. This is the same for other boards, so please use this as a reference for where to attach the deck pad! At Love Surf, we not only provide in-store services, Deck pad installation is free of charge. If you are ordering online and would like to have the sticker attached, Please feel free to let us know when you place your order. Come visit Luvsurf this weekend to see "GOBLIN" ! We just received some new stock so we have all sizes available now!

Learn moreEveryone! When you buy a surfboard, make sure to check whether it has the important "edge" or not!
everyone! When buying a surfboard, make sure to check whether it has an edge or not! The "edge" is the corner that is molded by applying resin to the area from the front fin to the tail end. If this "edge" is not sharp, the board will not move sharply. When you turn with the rail up, This allows for firm turns without sliding. MAYHEM, which pursues surfboard design, has not only LOST but also PLACEBO. We are checking to see if the "edge" has been reproduced. Love Surf is selling these products to you responsibly. Of course, LOST and PLACEBO surfboards have solid edges, so don't worry. Licensed LOST boards, Asian-made boards made by people who don't surf other manufacturers, etc. Compare the sharpness of the "edges"! You'll be amazed at the difference!
