Nishii is riding a 5'6" SUB-DRIVER with AUROLA 4.5 fins!
Today's waves at San Clemente Lowers. Although the size has gone down, the waves are still big enough. Apparently the big south swell that occurred yesterday was the biggest in 10 years. It was a holiday, so there were waves and lots of surfers on the road to UPPERS. When I got to the beach in LOWERS, there were several photographers there. There were many professional surfers in the ocean. Among them was Richie Collins, who had come to surf with his daughter. (Only people who have been surfing for about 30 years will understand this...) Nishii surfed on a 5'6" SUB-DRIVER with AUROLA 4.5 fins. Since the waves still had some size, the larger AUROLA 4.7 fins seemed to be a better choice. It looks like the waves will still be big enough tomorrow. Gorkin surfing in New Jersey wearing an ANCHOR wetsuit. LOST TV has been newly released, so please take a look. The wave quality is similar to that of Kujukuri, so this video is good for image training and examples.

This is the board with the original Mayhem mark on it, stored on the ceiling of the Mayhem family's garage. The LOST brand had not yet been launched, so the boards did not have the LOST logo on them. There is an illustration of the sun and breaking waves under the MAYHEM logo. I went to LOWERS to surf with Mayhem. The waves were quite large and there was a strong current due to the wind blowing from the side. Nishii brought the longest board he has stored in the US, a 5'10" FI-STUB model. The waves were too short for a 5'10" surfer. As expected, at this size, it was clear that people using long gun-type boards were surfing with ease. You'll need a board that's 3-6 inches longer than normal for days like this. Recently, Mayhem has been training with his personal surf trainer and is in great shape. He was surfing comfortably on a 6'8" semi-gun with a round pintail and five fins.

Kolohe wins! Luke takes 2nd place! Vans/Coastal Edge event! According to information from Mayhem, the Kolohe is a 5'10" x 19" x 2 1/4" Sub Driver model. Apparently it's the same board he used to come in third (interference) at the recent Sooruz Lacanau Pro in France. The board that Luke Davis was riding was It's a 5'8" x 18 1/2" x 2 1/8" SubScorcher model. Mayhem, who was watching the live show, saw their board work and The position and attachment of the VEE, as well as the rocker curve of the tail, will be finely adjusted to suit each rider. What's great about Mayhem is that they can see how the board matches the rider and how it functions. You can understand this by watching a few turns. We are also willing to quickly improve the design and supply better boards. He tests the boards himself, but his talented team riders are also active in the competition scene. They can maneuver to the limit and do things that other riders can't do, Mayhem's board designs always aim to be the best, and are cutting-edge board designs that are ahead of the rest on a global level.

It's a compilation of contest clips from Australia and South Africa, as well as underwater footage of free surfing. The most distinctive feature of the "DRIVER" model is its ability to make long, large, arcing driving turns. Its driving performance is also in full swing at point breaks. I want a high performance board with a little more buoyancy and I don't want to ride a wide fish. This model is recommended for those who want to perform great performance surfing with a pointed nose. The special page for the LOST driver model can be found here. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/camp/driver.html

After the US Open, Gorkin returned to his home in Florida from California. When I checked my Twitter, I saw that Kelly was a follower. I couldn't believe it so I checked it several times. In fact, he followed up with her many times after that. Gorkin was also a participant of the Quiksilver event in December 2010. Even though he won the Quiksilver King of the Peak event, http://luvsurf.co.jp/24sblog/?p=6278 The first WT event on the East Coast of the ASP, Quiksilver Pro New York, will be held from September 1st to 15th. When I found out I couldn't get into the trial, I complained about it on Twitter, Among the replies and phone calls she received from friends, she also received a follow-up from Kelly. Apparently Kelly was constantly replying to Gorkin's tweets, Gokin was upset because he couldn't become a trial member, At that time, it was amazing that you were in contact with Kelly! Apparently he didn't feel that way. So Kelly negotiated with Quicksilver, He apparently tweeted on Twitter that Gokin had been forced to enter the competition. Apparently, when Gorkin saw it, he couldn't believe it at first. Until now, I didn't see any value in things like Twitter, but Now I think it's very valuable Now, after this news, he says he has gained 400 followers. The first WT tour on the East Coast The event will be held in Long Beach, New York, 30 minutes from Manhattan. GORKIN has a 90% chance of winning surf contests on the East Coast this year, Perhaps, This could be the first time the ANCHOR wetsuit has appeared on the World Tour!
