New Luvsurf TV released! LOST "BABY BUGGY" Taji Burrow @GoldCoast 2016

Luvsurf TV: LOST " BABY BUGGY " Taji Burrow @GoldCoast 2016 Rider: Taji Burrow Board used: LOST " BABY BUGGY " FILM & EDIT:TABRIGADE FILM This is a collection of rare WSL riding footage from Taj, who retired from the WSL after the 2016 WSL Fiji event to focus on raising his children. It's a shame that he still can't surf at a level that would allow him to win the WSL, but I think we'll continue to see him surfing good waves as a free surfer. Surfing is the national sport in Australia, so Taji, who has a long career, is a very famous surfer in the country and is apparently known by everyone, even grandparents. Taji looks to be in good shape riding his BABY BUGGY ! The high-performance BABY BUGGY model is currently booming not only in Japan but all over the world. Because it can be used in a wide range of waves, team riders carry it in their board bags and travel the world. It is Lost's global model, the BABY BUGGY , that has stolen the team rider popularity from the SUB-DRIVER! [vimeo]https://vimeo.com/173423602[/vimeo]

New Luvsurf TV released! PLACEBO “LAYZ-POTATO” FLEXLITE-BOOST Koji Nishii

Luvsurf TV: PLACEBO “LAYZ-POTATO” FLEXLITE-BOOST Rider: Koji Nishii Board used: PLACEBO 5'5" "LAYZ-POTATO" FLEXLITE-BOOSTFILM: Hayato Masuda EDIT: TABRIGADE FILM Take a good look at the first takeoff motion. It takes just three light strokes of the paddle to take off, and the paddle moves quickly, making it easy to ride. This board design was created at the request of Mayhem, who made the rails thinner. The rails go into the waves like a high-performance board, allowing for quicker movements. The rails make it easy to tip the board over the top and bottom. This board not only accelerates when paddling, but also when riding, providing incredible propulsion. If you use it to highline the waves like Nishii does, you can get through fast sections of the waves without having to go to the bottom and force a turn, so give it a try. Action types can also be ridden well if ridden smoothly. This board, the "LAYZ-POTATO," was popular after its release at LOST and has received high praise from those who have actually ridden it, so it has also been released at PLACEBO.It is very easy to ride and has a fast paddle, and it feels great no matter where or when you ride it, so Nishii takes it with him on surf trips. Once you ride it, you'll understand how amazing this board is, so if you haven't tried it yet, I highly recommend it! It's also recommended as a second board for those who don't need the buoyancy of a Goblin! [vimeo]https://vimeo.com/172931256[/vimeo]

Everyone! Thank you for coming to our store and purchasing so many new "Lost Surfboards"!

Mr. A, LOST "DOS-DIABLO" BLACK DART was chosen. This was a custom order to switch from a Hydro Flex EFC of the same design. The Black Dart is softer than the EFC, so if you were to compare it to a car, it feels like the supple ride of a luxury car. What's more, the deck is covered in Carbon X-Cross, making it the strongest LOST board to date. The color is also original, and Drew, who is in charge of lamination, posted it on his Instagram. Mr. B, You chose the LOST "BABY-BUGGY" CARBON WRAP. He has ridden boards from a variety of manufacturers, but after learning about the unique structure of the LOST Carbon Wrap, he thought it would definitely work great! He said he'd like to ride it, so he ordered a custom one. He said he's really looking forward to riding it! Mr. C said, You chose the LOST "DIABLO-SPARTAN" CARBON WRAP. He had purchased a thin model of DOS-DIABLO and was riding it, but the board was so good that he became interested in the new material CARBON WRAP, so he purchased the same new model , the DIABLO-SPARTAN, with CARBON WRAP. Mr. D, He chose the LOST "SUB BUGGY-JP" CARBON WRAP. He enjoys surfing with a variety of models, including the CARBON WRAP and BLACK DART, but this time he ordered a board that was custom-ordered for use in slightly larger waves than the shorter, wider model he usually rides. Mr. E is Yuji, a staff member. I chose the LOST "BABY BUGGY" CARBON WRAP. Our staff member Yuji was the first to purchase the "CARBON WRAP," which costs about 250,000 yen if custom ordered, because he could ride it for just 168,000 yen (excluding tax) as a stock board . Check out the store blog for a report on riding this CARBON WRAP board! The store blog also features a report from team rider Hiroki riding the "CARBON WRAP"! Everyone! Come visit us! Thank you for purchasing so many new "Lost Surfboards"!

New Luvsurf TV released! LOST “SUB-BUGGY-JP” CARBON WRAP Koji Nishii

Luvsurf TV: LOST “SUB-BUGGY-JP” CARBON WRAP Rider: Koji Nishii Board used: LOST 5'8" SUB-BUGGY-JP CARBON WRAP FILM: Hayato Masuda EDIT: TABRIGADE FILM The cutting-edge EPS epoxy board has attracted attention from around the world. ..This is a riding movie of LOST's "CARBON WRAP". You can see how the CARBON WRAP rebounds and then instantly accelerates into a turn. The board I ride is a 5'8" SUB-BUGGY-JP . Until now, I often rode QUAD with POLY material, Since switching to CARBON WRAP , I've been using TRI fins. When the waves are large enough to be overhead, I set up the MB L so that I can make a big driving turn through the waves, so please keep that in mind. It's essential to change the size and type of fin depending on the size and quality of the waves. It's the same as changing tires depending on the road conditions in an F1 race. When weight is applied to the CARBON WRAP , it bends deeply like a board or a bow and arrow, causing the entire board to spring back (rebound), and the tail part, where the carbon is wrapped once more, becomes extra flex, allowing for speed. Get the extra flex that only those who ride ``CARBON WRAP'' can experience! It's so fun to hit the board on the top of the wave. It bounces back and allows you to perform flashy tricks like lip jumps and air jumps! https://vimeo.com/173716882

New Luvsurf TV released! PLACEBO "CONQUEST EL-DIABLO" Matt King

Luvsurf TV: PLACEBO "CONQUEST EL-DIABLO" Matt King Rider: Matt King Board used: Placebo 5'9" CONQUEST EL-DIABLO FLEXLITE-BOOST FILM : "T-LOC" Strictly Surf/Anthony Hillerby & Joe Alani. EDIT: TABRIGADE FILM The original model was the LOST "CONQUEST" from 10 years ago! Since its release, the CONQUEST EL-DIABLO has been breaking all-time sales records at PLACEBO. The reason is that this model is the most versatile, designed to ride well in waves big, small, deep, and hollow. Of course, the greatest feature of this model is that it paddles quickly, takes off quickly, and is easy and safe, as proven by feedback from those who actually use it. Recently, the surfboard market has been flooded with boards advertising in catalogs and on the web that offer "fast paddling and takeoff," but this is very different. The "CONQUEST EL-DIABLO" model started out as the original LOST "CONQUEST" model made from POLYESTER material, and has even been modified to include PLACEBO's "TABLET" and "TABLET II" FLEXLITE material. It is a model that has continued to evolve over 10 years of design and development, with MAYHEM themselves test riding it. The amount of time spent on research and development and the number of boards produced are on a completely different level from the boards that manufacturers make for a new model, give them a name, and then sell them as new models. Check out Kinger's riding video to see why this model is the best-selling model, proving it can be surfed in powerful and deep waves. If you can ride waves of this size, isn't that enough for Japan?

Yesterday we had a test ride in light offshore knee-high waves at Higashinami Beach in Ichinomiya, Chiba Prefecture.

Yesterday we had a test drive event at Higashinami Beach in Ichinomiya, Chiba Prefecture. It was hot like a summer day and light offshore knee-high waves. So many people came to the test drive event that I didn't have time to take photos. "BABY BUGGY" and "DIABLO SPARTAN." The DIABLO SPARTAN was test ridden at 5'9". "BABY BUGGY" is my board. The waves were small, so I recommended a larger size than I usually recommend, and had everyone try it out. Nishii also surfed with everyone for about an hour, but because the waves were small, there were a lot of long boards, it was crowded, and there weren't many waves, so I went for a 5'10" 'GOBLIN' 42cl. So I was able to catch about 10 set waves in an hour. This person said it was their first time riding a PLACEBO, and they usually ride thinner POLY boards. When they got on the 5'9" CONQIUEST EL-DIANBLO , they were amazed at how well it paddled. They were hesitant to ride a board with such buoyancy, but were surprised at how nimble it was and how many waves they could catch. I had him ride the 5'4" SHORT ROUND , but the waves were weak and small. We also had them try out the 5'4" Goblin , but they said it was much easier to ride and they were able to ride it a lot more. "CARBON WRAP" attracted a lot of attention from everyone, and many people took it for a test drive. We received feedback that they were able to experience how the board easily flexes and accelerates even in small waves! Thank you to all the participants and staff for your hard work!
