Combinations of two FCSII fin boxes colors are available for custom orders!
Nishii's new test board is now complete, so we'd like to introduce it to you. The model is "Puddle Jumper." Next to me is Coco, 5'5.5". This dark purple resin board is made from regular POLYESTER foam (blanks). This is a board that has been 3D vacuum glassed using Hydroflex epoxy resin. The inside is made of PU foam, so it's not as light as EPS or EFC, The outer layer is made of epoxy resin, which is elastic and absorbs shock better than poly. It is significantly stronger. I was surprised that the surface was softer than I expected, as it felt like it would go back into place when pressed. It seems like it will absorb the impact if it hits something unless it's sharp. The board measures 5'4". It is possible to accept custom orders, The FCSII fin box is a combination of two colors like this, "KA size M" on the side, On the rear, "CARVER NEO GRASS M size" I'll start by riding it with the QUAD, and if it's too loose I'll add an AUROLA REY fin to the center. After applying the LOST grips and looking at the tail, I confirmed that it has a wide squash tail design that would look good with a pointed nose. I can't wait to try riding it! I'll report my first impressions once I've ridden it!

Learn moreIt's cute. I'm riding a LOST MAYHEM. First appearance on 24'S blog "Alssa Quizon"
This is a report on the WSL Hurley PRO on the second day of the event. Rumor has it that hurricane-force swells are on the way and the event will end while there are still waves by Saturday local time. Ian Crane from the LOST team was in good form with 9 points, Freepe overtook him with his last ride. This is the cute WSL women's surfer riding the LOST MAYHEM this time. "Alssa Quizon" by Alssa Quizon (Hawaii) He rides a SUB-DRIVER . This model is a basic yet popular masterpiece from LOST MAYHEM. As I wrote in my blog yesterday, this is Michael Ho practicing. I was wearing lipstick. Her daughter Coco was eliminated in Round 2. It's a shame because he is a rider for the tournament sponsor, SWATCH. Maria also stood out during the early morning practice, but was unable to catch a good wave and was eliminated. It's a shame because she's a cute Hawaiian surfer who rides a LOST MAYHEM board. This is Noah Beschen practicing. He attracted attention with his energetic surfing. The appearance has changed to a simpler style, "KA" looks to be in good shape I'm looking forward to tomorrow's heat. This guy is Tomas Hermes, a small-time surfer from Brazil. I lost to Medina in round 2. Hiroto Ohara, who was attracting attention locally, unfortunately wiped out for some reason, but his turns showed WSL-level performance. I hope he will use this as a stepping stone to do better next time. However, even if he loses this round, he will still receive the $9,000 prize (approximately 1.08 million yen). It's clear why the WCL is considered an elite surfing event.

US Surfing Magazine before Hurley PRO Check out the phone interview with Mayhem. Kolohe's quiver. Photo: Matt Biolos The word Mayhem is the same as the round stone found in Lower Trestles. Naturally, some of the world's most famous surfers are backed by the Matt Biolos brand. Matt always feels the waves in his mind as he planes his board. Every year the World Tour meets in San Clemente, and when it does, Matt is swamped with orders from the best surfers in the world. For the 2015 Hurley Pro (starting tomorrow), Matt built boards for Kolohe, Mick, Julian, Taj, Alejo, Wiggory, Ricardo, Adam, and Freddie P. In the Women's category, Carissa, Maria, Coco, and Tyler will likely be carrying Matt's fiberglass. There are also some very dedicated surfers who are constantly developing huge numbers of custom orders. That's Kolohe Andino, whose results in the lower tournaments tend to affect his performance for the rest of the tour. As Trestles approaches, he is currently ranked 31st in the world. We called Matt and asked him. What kind of shape do you plan to get him into to get him out of his slump as a competitor? Matt Biolos: "Dino and I are hopeful that the new quiver will turn things around. Kolohe has focused on riding longer, narrower, more traditional boards this year that have been refined for the CT. He has kept those boards his own, but we built him a second quiver based on the boards that have been working well on the QS. Based on the board he used to win the Australian Open earlier this year, the new quiver is a little shorter with a wider tail block. It also has a slacker rocker for more movement." The board that beat Jeremy Flowe at Snapper this year was a combination of several boards. "Last year he changed his designs more and had more success, but mainly in good waves like Fiji and Brazil. After getting on the board and practicing surfing lower, it just didn't seem to work the way he wanted to approach it. The board was geared towards parko and finesse. @noah_alani The new board should allow him to get deeper edge backs and surf. We're slowly getting closer to the board that launched his surfing skills at age 15. The most important features of Kolohe's board are the smooth, flowing rocker and outline, which are perfectly suited to the slope of Trestles' coveted waves. We've just finished spray painting the board for him. @noah_alani The two surf photos above were just sent to me by Kolohe photographer Noah Alani @noah_alani and were taken in Kolohe the previous evening. By the time this blog is published, Round 1 will be over, but please support us and hope we can do our best and achieve good results!

Luvsurf TV: LOST 5'0"『BEAN BAG』Koji Nishii Koji Nishii Rider: Koji Nishii Board used: LOST 5'0" "BEAN BAG" POLYESTER FILM: Hayato Masuda EDIT: TABRIGADE FILM We are receiving a flood of inquiries! We posted the arrival information on our blog and on LINE @luvsurf, and before it was posted on the web We're getting a lot of inquiries and they're selling well. Thank you! This is a riding video of the much talked about new LOST model, the BEAN BAG. This board's three defining features are its ability to turn tightly, move loosely, and perform at high speeds. Take a look at how it turns so easily in small waves that you don't even need the wave face when cutting back. This "BEAN BAG" can achieve chest-sized movements even in knee-high waves! Take-off performance is also good! The wide design allows for no-paddle takeoff. This is because your weight can be applied to the board, making it feel like it is swimming and becoming one with the board. Once you get used to riding it, you'll be able to easily perform lip slide tricks that take advantage of its loose performance. It's designed to fit any head size, and it's short so you'll attract a lot of attention when you ride it! Now, let's take a look at a riding video of the BEAN BAG, which moves in a way that is clearly different from other boards. A special page featuring newly arrived stock boards that are ready to ride will be launched soon, so please wait a little while longer. [vimeo]https://vimeo.com/138436070[/vimeo]
Learn moreNew Luvsurf TV released! It must feel amazing to be able to turn your board that fast!
Luvsurf TV:LOST 『SUB-BUGGY』 Thiago Camarao Rider: Thiago Camarao Board used: LOST "SUB-BUGGY" FILM:Koji Nishii EDIT:TABRIGADE FILM Brazilian surfer Tiago Camarao. This video is a compilation of riding from the WSL Prime event in June 2015. He rides the high-performance MAYHEM model "SUB-BUGGY," which is said to be the most popular MAYHEM board among the world-class contestants. This board is Tiago's magic board, and he cherishes it and only rides it in competitions. His surfing style is characterized by quick board turns. Take a look at how he swings the board around with great force on both the front and back sides. It's tough for an older surfer to ride this high-performance model, It would be great to be able to turn the board so quickly using the lip action that is the real joy of shortboarding! The SUB-BUGGY model has a small squash tail, There is a tiny single bump wing that you can't see unless you look closely! Competitors want it, lightweight glass, The finest stock boards have arrived at Love Surf, Please come to Love Surf to see the actual boards ! So, I'm currently aiming to enter the WSL next year through the qualifying series. Check out Tiago's riding below. [vimeo]https://vimeo.com/128669614[/vimeo]

Rip Curl Tokyo 0466-28-7755 Osaka 06-6538-8011 That's why Nishii recorded Accumulated data that I have been using since November 11th of last year. Looking closely at the surf data for the 298 days up to today, September 4th... Surfed 147 rounds (It's rare to play two rounds in one day.) Take off and ride 3,340 waves, (There are so many trains on this line!) The total distance traveled by paddling and riding in the ocean was 12,275.1km!!! (Apparently it's about the same distance as driving from Tokyo to Sapporo...lol) The total time spent in the water was 13 days, 7 hours and 8 minutes... (Maybe my body is tasting salty because of all the salt?) I surfed 129 days. (I don't surf every day.) I'm sure the numbers would be even more impressive for young professional surfers who surf every day. I think it's fun and important to record your surfing data. If you haven't used it yet, please purchase it here. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/store/category/item/itemgenre/tide-watch-clock-other/rip-curl/ Please start using it. I look forward to seeing the records after each surf session.
