LOST announces new Diablo model! What is the "DIABLO-SPARTAN"?
LOST announces new Diablo model! What is "DIABLO-SPARTAN"? This board was created by reducing the volume and re-adjusting the design of the DOS-DIABLO model to further improve its maneuverability. Mayhem has super-tuned the DOS-DIABLO to be able to win competitions. "DIABLO SPARTAN" model explanation The DOS-DIABLO was such a magical model that we tuned it to a level that could even compete in competitions. We received many custom orders for the DOS-DIABLO from surfers with long experience and average paddling skills who didn't need the same buoyancy as the DOS-DIABLO, but wanted a little more volume (buoyancy) than other JP models, such as the SUB-BUGGY-JP or SUB-DRIVER-JP. Mayhem saw this and realized that there were so many customer needs, so they decided to create a separate model, tuning up the size and design of the "DOS-DIABLO" to meet their wishes. The model was named "Spartan," which represents its fighting power. When Love Surf rider Hiroki rode this model, he said, "This is the best Lost model I've ever ridden," and he decided to use it in a competition. The thickness of the rounded outline is less than that of the standard high-performance DOS-DIABLO, lowering the CL value. The width is the same as the stock size of the base DOS-DIABLO model, but the thickness is less, so the CL value is set to be approximately 3cl less. The reduced buoyancy makes it very agile and significantly improves its maneuverability. The width of the nose and tail is slightly narrower than the DOS-DIABLO. The bottom rocker has the same gentle rocker curve as the DOS-DIABLO model, a performance board. The tail design is a rounded squash tail with rounded corners that allows it to ride any wave. The DIABLO-SPARTAN is thinner than the DOS-DIABLO, but it still retains the Diablo series' most distinctive feature: fast paddle and takeoff performance. Of course, it also features the traditional dolphin grab, making it easy to grip the rails and preventing fatigue during repeated dolphin runs. Highly recommended for those who are overweight or whose physical strength has declined with age. This model is of course a Japan-exclusive model developed by LOST Japan. Take on the Spartans and dominate your rivals with waves and victory. ▪️Size lineup 5'7 x 19.25 x 2.25 (170 x 48.9 x 5.7cm) 26.5cl 55-65kg Intermediate 55-60kg Advanced 60-65kg 5'8 x 19.50 x 2.32 (173 x 49.5 x 5.85cm) 28.0cl 60~70kg Intermediate 60-65kg Advanced 65-70kg 5'9 x 19.75 x 2.38 (175 x 50.1 x 6.0cm) 29.5cl 65-75kg Intermediate 65-70kg Advanced 70-75kg 5'10 x 19.88 x 2.44 (178 x 50.4 x 6.2cm) 31.0cl 70~80kg Intermediate 70-75kg Advanced 75-80kg The DIABLO SPARTAN is a model that I have shown the markings of on this blog several times. It has the least buoyancy and is the most agile model in the Diablo model series. Even though it has the least buoyancy, rest assured that it has the most buoyancy of all the other performance line models.

Learn moreUmm, what does "Goblin" mean?
This is a photo from the choppy waves on Sunday, the day before yesterday. The day before yesterday was the worst day of the year with no waves and a side-onshore wind. Even for skilled surfers, if they were lucky enough to catch a good wave, it was a bad wave and they could barely make one move. The Goblin, which rises from the swell, slides sideways before it starts to break, I was able to turn quickly, so it was a breeze with just two actions! If you look at the truck in the photo, you can see how fast it is going. All surfing photo by “Masanori Furuya” By the way, yesterday you went to see Goblin . A customer who came to the store asked me a question... What does "Goblin" mean? and. I haven't told you all about it yet. "Goblin" is a creature that appears in European legends. It means a mischievous evil spirit . According to legend, Gob-chan, Apparently he loves to joke around and is always doing mean things. In Europe, children who stay up late at night are My parents said, "If you don't go to bed early, evil goblins will come." Apparently he gets angry. Don't you think the meaning of "Goblin" is kind of cool? Those who ride the "GOBLIN" can ride good waves one after another in the ocean, and to others, the model name is a perfect fit for the "GOBLIN's" greatest feature : its wickedly fast paddle and takeoff performance ! We are now accepting reservations before the first shipment arrives at the end of March! Please consider booking early before they sell out!
Learn moreI went for a ride right away - the takeoff of the "GOBLIN" was definitely the fastest PLACEBO ever!
I got to ride the PLACEBO 5'4" "GOBLIN" FLEXLITE-BOOST right away! I knew the waves were small and side-onshore yesterday, but I was dying to ride Nishii's 5'4" POLY magic board, the GOBLIN, which was a spitting image of his previous one! The waves were crumpled and knee-high. However, the takeoff performance was fast and I enjoyed the "GOBLIN" session. The waves closed in quickly, but just like a long board, I was able to get up from the swell multiple times, and since I started to slide quickly, I even had the time to try delaying getting up. I can't really boast about the extremely fast takeoff performance of "GOBLIN" , but If you compare it with the same CL value, it is better than ``CONQUEST EL-DIABLO''! Of course, "FISHQUEST 2" easily beats it. If you look at the actual board, you'll see that the rail shape gets thinner and thinner from the center to the tail, and the elevator wing and split tail have no buoyancy, so the rails go in easily and the tail can be stepped on, making the board easy to control even with such a large buoyancy number - a design that is truly Mayhem! At 2:00 p.m., I returned to Love Surf and started working in the store. I saw your blog yesterday and asked, "Show me some goblins!" A constant stream of customers came to the store to take a look! Thank you very much! Some people want to brag to their friends, saying, "I saw a goblin!" Some people even took photos. Some people have even made pre-orders, saying they were relieved after seeing the actual product ! We are so happy. Thank you for pre-ordering before the product arrives!!
