Learn more"MAYHEM" In order to accurately produce the custom order boards that you received from everyone who came to Japan
In order to accurately produce the custom order boards that were given to everyone when "MAYHEM" came to Japan last weekend, Nishii joined the Lost Surfboard Factory in San Clemente, California. We received a large number of custom order boards in a short period of time, We carried out the operation to ensure that each piece was produced accurately and without any mistakes. Each piece is carefully inspected at the MAYHEM desk, Even on AKU's surfboard design screen, We individually checked the adjustments of the custom order boards received from everyone. We build the best boards right here in our Mayhem shaping room. We will deliver it to everyone in Japan, so please look forward to it. This order fair is also being held until October 5th! http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/24sblog/?p=32978 Don't miss it!

Mr. A, He chose the LOST "SHORT ROUND" POLYESTER Carbon Tail Patch. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/lost/short-round/short-round The board size is 5'6". Mr. A actually has an airbrush board of the same model and size as this board, He was so pleased with the board that he bought the same board in clear so he could have a spare. Mr. B, You have chosen Placebo's TABLET II FLEXLITE-TURBO. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/placebo/tablet-ii He had been riding a 7'0" funboard until then, but wanted to surf with quicker up and down movements, so he came to our shop to ask for advice. He was considering sizes 6'2" and 6'4", and decided to purchase the 6'4" as it was easier to ride and had better movement. Mr. C said, You have chosen Placebo's TABLET II FLEXLITE-TURBO. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/placebo/tablet-ii The board size is 5'11", and Mr. C is also switching from a funboard. She wanted a board that was durable, light enough for women to carry, and stable enough to ride, and her surfing friends had recommended it to her. Above all, she chose Presebo because she wanted a reliable brand that she could ride with peace of mind. Mr. D, PLACEBO "CONQUEST EL-DIABLO" FLEXLITE-BOOST was selected. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015 The board size is 5'8". It seems that there was a gap in surfing for a while, He borrowed this board from a friend and found it to be much better than before, so he decided to buy it. Mr. E, You chose PLACEBO's "CONQUEST EL-DIABLO" FLEXLITE-CANDY. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/models/placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015/conquest-el-diablo-lost-placebo2015 The board size is 6'2". He was just starting out surfing and was looking for a board that was easy to ride and would definitely help him improve. He chose a highly rated brand, the latest model, and was also looking for something that would last a long time and be difficult to break. Thank you to everyone who came to our store and purchased so many new surfboards!

Check out these photos from Matt "MAYHEM" Biolos' surfing day in Japan. All Photo by Takaichi Sasahara TABRIGADE FILM This is Hiroki. The board he's riding is PLACEBO 5'10"『CONQUEST EL-DIABLO』FLEXLITE-BOOST Hiroki showed off the driving skills that are unique to FLEXLITE-BOOST . When making a carving turn, you put the rail in until you can see the bottom surface and then push the tail down to this point. Uehara-san accompanied us. The board he is riding is a LOST 5'7" V2-GRINDER POLY spec board, chosen from stock boards. He's maneuvering with a lot of tightness and making great turns! Nishii followed the powerful wave, I rode the LOST 5'8" SUB BUGGY-JP POLY quad. You can see from the photos that the waves were big enough and very good. This is the main subject, Mayhem, and the board he is riding is a LOST 6'2" V3-ROCKET with a round tail. He swung his big body around, and even though everyone was already tired and coming up, he didn't finish the climb. Although MAYHEM is a shaper, he surfs all over the world wherever he goes and is known in the industry as a surfing enthusiast. This time I went to an event in Tokyo and stayed at the Nishii family home. On Saturday, I went to Minamiwada in Chiba, as shown in this photo. On Sunday, I went surfing at Shonan Shichirigahama, which was packed with waist-chest-sized surfers. Mayhem was delighted to encounter many other LOST & PLACEBO surfboard users in the ocean, parking lots, and on the beach. Everyone who spotted Mayhem was also surprised by his sudden appearance. MAYHEM said that the two-day surf session was a valuable opportunity for them to experience and learn more about the types of waves Japanese surfers ride and the crowded conditions on the weekend, and to develop even more Japan-exclusive models than ever before. This MAYHEM experience will be reflected in the model design of a surfboard that will be sold exclusively in Japan, so we're looking forward to seeing what happens next!

We are now accepting orders for boards made with a new material technology called "BLACK DART"! High performance stringerless EPS foam interior. The deck is made of a special unidirectional carbon deck cloth that is strong yet flexible, wrapped in epoxy resin. Flexibility is outstanding! The board is also light and strong. The BlackDart surfboard construction is It was developed by Florida-based Epoxy composites mastermind Drew Bagget. …Lost Surfboards has worked with Drew to fine-tune and license the technology. The BlackDart is built using a virgin 1.5 stringerless EPS core. The most eye-catching feature is that the entire deck is wrapped in our custom-made carbon/S-glass hybrid "BlackDart" material. All carbon fiber is unidirectionally spun from nose to tail, The S-fiberglass runs across the width (rail to rail). It's not a traditional two-way carbon wave. This material (i.e. this board) has nothing to do with stiffness. than a board made with traditional bidirectional carbon fiber fabric. Furthermore, it is a material that snaps and buckles (bends) very easily. This board still has quick reaction, high responsiveness, and It has the advantage of carbon fiber's shape memory. It does not have the problems that two-way carbon waves have. The second advantage is the hybrid cross. You can create beautiful color combinations using tints and pigments. The advantage is that it allows for a very good contrast between the S-glass fibre and the carbon. The carbon covers the entire deck and wraps fully around the rails, but not all the way to the bottom. This will keep the board from becoming too stiff. Only a light 4 oz cloth is applied to the bottom. The bottom is made of two layers of 4 oz. cloth. This results in a long-lasting board that is less likely to dent even with daily use. "That was 10 years ago. When I was using a board with two-way carbon fiber tape, That's when I experienced a buckle (bend) that was as sharp as a samurai's sword. Myth Busters (a program that investigates urban legends and other suspicious rumors whispered on the streets of America) When both unidirectional and 2x2 fiber were attached to plywood and an exploding ball was hit, The 2x2 shattered into pieces, the unidirectional fiber exploded, and the ball bounced. When I saw that, it hit me: all the carbon fiber material we use is It was either single or braided..." Drew Baggett. "Nate Yeomans used the BlackDart technology at a pro-am in San Diego. I won the race on a 5'8" V3 Rocket. This board is a stringerless blank with unidirectional carbon fiber. The entire deck is covered in two tint colors. Nate said, "It's the fastest board I've ever ridden." When we first produced and promoted Black Darts, I had no real desire or intention for it to be a competition board, but Nate showed me that wasn't the case." Matt Biolos Lost BlackDart Surfboard! Unlike the boards made by snowboard companies that are hard and stiff, making them difficult for us Japanese to bend and giving no bounce when riding, this is a luxurious board that looks great and feels great to ride! On the 25th, we will have actual Lost Black Dart surfboards available for you to touch and see. We look forward to seeing you in the store, so please come and visit us.

Learn moreThe backside position you want to imitate, as seen in WSL Lady Kolohe
The waves have started to appear, but "Harley Pro" will be held on Thursday, September 17th. I became a lady again today. The waves are good enough, but there are only a few of them and the size is not expected to decrease tomorrow, so it seems that the decision has been made to hold the event tomorrow. Kolohe gave an amazing performance from early in the morning. He was the most noticeable. I'm sure he was disappointed to lose so soon in his hometown, but he was surfing well. SHAW and KEI's father, KOBAYASHI Masaki, also showed off his surfing skills that matched the wave quality on LOST's ``SHORT ROUND.'' Carissa Moore always wears the same color wetsuit. The board is always clear and simple. It feels like it's been the same for about four years. Kolohe is bending his body like this on the backside. This pose is a great example to follow, so please try it out. When you hit the lip, hit this part of the wave, get into this position, and use your back leg as the axis to push off the board and return it. I lost at a local event with this sponsor, I was relieved to see Kolohe in good form. There are six more hours to complete the men's and women's events, so once you start it can be completed in one day. The event will be held on Friday, September 18th, and by the time this blog is published, the winner will have been decided. "Wiggly Dantas" and "Carissa Moore" would be great!
