New Luvsurf TV: LOST "BEACH BUGGY" Kolohe Andino
Luvsurf TV:LOST "BEACH BUGGY" Kolohe Andino Rider: Kolohe Andiono Board used: LOST "BEACH BUGGY" Polyester Carbon Tail Patch FILM & EDIT: TABRIGADE FILM This is a collection of the latest riding footage taken during the recent WCT held in Keramas, Bali, Indonesia! Kolohe's new move is a combination of a cutback and a layback turn, with his back hand placed in the wave. Even if the waves get smaller inside, you can still aim for a high score with the air. A carving turn where the left hand is placed on the wave surface as the axis. When doing a slash turn on full rails, you can create spray by lowering your posture. When the waves get thicker, try a quick and compact top action like this! This posture for holding the bottom as you turn is something to emulate. The waves at Kuramas are sand and reef, and the waves can be dug up when you take off, but the BEACH BUGGY model works well. Kolohe is riding it. Check out this Kolohe X Beach Buggy ride, including some original, never-before-seen footage from Love Surf. [vimeo]https://vimeo.com/70402035[/vimeo]

Take a look at the hugely successful Marine Day Sale. The most popular item was the fins, of which there were about 100 sets available. The sunglasses also sold like hotcakes and many people purchased them. The Marine Day Sale was a huge success, with a constant stream of customers from 2pm when it started until 7pm. The QUAD fin set was popular. Some people even purchased several. Families enjoyed the sale on T-shirts, kids and girls. We also enjoyed the stalls like this. We'll be doing it again next year, so look forward to it!

Learn moreAfter holding the "LOST & Placebo Test Drive Event," we went to "MOON RISE GARAGE."
Today, a test ride event for LOST&Placebo was held at Nami Beach in northeastern Chiba, sponsored by Murasaki Sports. Everyone got to experience the flexible flex of the FLEXLITE-TURBO and the rebound for speed. The offshore wind was strong and the waves were small, so LOST was popular for test riding ORCA and COUCH POTATO! We will teach you the correct way to apply "FU WAX", which has completely different performance and application methods. The trick to applying "FU" is to apply it slowly and carefully so that there are no gaps. With a poly board, if there is a dent in the deck, it is easy to leave that area unpainted. Don't miss any spots so you don't miss anything. The set of waves looks like this: The waves were beautiful and I was able to test the performance of my board. After the test drive, I went to "MOON RISE GARAGE," which has just relocated and grandly opened in Ichihara City, Chiba Prefecture. There is a car inspection, maintenance and bodywork shop called "T-GARAGE" next door, so when you go shopping, It's a new style of surf shop where you can also receive car care. The terrace seats in front of the store will be further expanded and renovated, It will also be available as a cafe and bar space. Today was the grand opening, so there was also a screening of a video that was recorded and edited to show the process of building the store. From the left are advisory staff Koro-san, Nishii, and shop staff Kodai-san. Of course, we also have FU WAX! We have a LOST board available for test rides, so if you're nearby, please feel free to borrow one and take it for a ride. The address of "MOON RISE GARAGE" is here: 8181 Kusakari, Ichihara City, Chiba Prefecture. Phone: 0436-37-1255.

Learn moreNishii's impressions after using FCS's "ORIGIN" for three rounds
I have actually started using FCS's "ORIGIN" fin system. My impressions after using it for 3 rounds: It's great. Even though the fins are small, it drives really well. This is because the ORIGIN plug is designed so that the entire base of the fin is stored inside the board. We believe this is because the power of the turn can be transmitted directly to the fin, and the area of the roving section (the shape of the base of the fin when the on-fin is raised) allows the water flow to be sent smoothly to the rear, resulting in extremely little drag. It allows you to turn tighter (inside) than the regular FCS fin system, You can turn forward with large turns, so you can ride with the feeling that the board has a wider range of motion. I can confidently recommend it, so please give it a try. The SUB-SCORCHER2 board with Origin fins is now in stock and ready to ride!
