Luvsurf TV: MAYHEM "WHIPLASH-TB" by Brad Simpson Rider: Brett Simpson Board used: MAYHEM "WHIPLASH-TB" FILM: Kouji Nishii EDIT: TABRIGADE FILM At the super crowded San Clemente Trestles Lowers in California, This is me testing out the MAYHEM shaped, WHIPLASH-TB model I just received. Brad "Simppo" Simpson has always been a fan of Whiplash models. The new Mayhem-designed "WHIPLASH-TB" model released in 2012 is a better fit than the previous WHIPLASH model. The outline is slightly wider, adding volume to the board and making it more buoyant. This makes it more all-around and a board that can run on beach breaks. Testing the condition of the board while cruising around the crowded area Check out Shinpo's stylish lip action and sharp surfing.

Word Stories Episode #8 “PIPELINE” is now available! Ward says he loves surfing Pipe Run. I love it so much that I often drop in to local places. Of course, if the waves are good the morning after a party, you can go surfing! Ward also has an eye for backdoor right breaks. The highlight is word surfing on the big Pipeline waves. For longer boards, position your stance around the stringer. Learn how to move your stance forward, backward, left, right, in the barrel, and when turning. When surfing deep waves, you should adjust your stance to the wave and stand on the rail side of the wave face rather than directly above the stringer, which will allow you to exit the tube without being caught in the barrel.

Luvsurf TV: MAYHEM "DRIVER" Mick Fanning Rider: Mick Fanning Board: MAYHEM "DRIVER" FILM: Kouji Nishii EDIT: TABRIGADE FILM As of the end of August 2012, he is currently ranked number one in the world. This is a video of Mick Fanning riding the MAYHEM shaped board "DRIVER". The "DRIVER" model is a model that has been increasingly ordered by WT surfers. Because the board has buoyancy in the center, surfers can sink the board in the boat. Riding in low-power waves will bring out the unique performance of the DRIVER. This model is also suitable for those who feel that the F1-STUB model or WHIPLASH-TB model does not provide enough buoyancy. Among Mayhem's many models, this is a high-performance model with excellent buoyancy. Since the summer of 2011, I have been riding Kolohe's SUB-DRIVER and I love MAYHEM boards and have used them many times. Check out Mick's great surfing.

Learn moreWhat does the brand name "Placebo" mean?
What does the brand name Placebo mean? I've been asked this question a lot recently, so I'll explain it here. Presebo surfboard design It's made by Matt Biolos, also known as MAYHEM, the same person behind Lost Surfboards. The MAYHEM design has been faithfully reproduced down to the smallest detail. Presebo surfboards are made using a different material called FLEXLITE-TURBO. It is made of a strong composite material that won't fade in the sun, and is a surfboard from another brand of LOST design. It means "placebo." It's a name that suits MAYHEM, who loves twisted jokes. This mark with a P inside a circle was the original mark and was used for three years from 2006 to 2008. This capsule mark was adopted in 2009, Since 2010, instead of this Present Man robot mark, The same MAYHEM mark as LOST is now used. In 2012, the black capsule mark was added. It has been seven years since its launch in 2012, and now it is used by many people who know the difference. As a first choice surfboard brand, its durability and ease of riding have made it a very popular brand. Even now, the mark and design continue to evolve every year.

Luvsurf TV: MAYHEM "SUB-DRIVER" Marila Manuel Rider: Marilla Manuel Board used: MAYHEM "SUB-DRIVER" FILM: Kouji Nishii EDIT: TABRIGADE FILM This video features 19-year-old Malila Manuel from Kauai, Hawaii, riding the Mayhem Sub-Driver model at the LOWERS and 2012 ASP Nike US-Open events. His main sponsor is O'Neill Wetsuits, and his preferred board is MAYHEM. The SUB-DRIVER model allows you to maintain speed and surf without losing speed even without constantly putting weight on it, so even though it was a WT, it still managed to come in third in the women's heat, which was held during a time when the waves were bad. This model is 2-4 inches shorter than a regular board, allowing for quicker riding and better performance surfing, helping you achieve high points in contests. If you haven't tried the popular "SUB-DRIVER" model yet, which is also well-suited to the wave conditions in Japan, then give it a try.

Learn moreI'm thinking of taking the "Hot Rod Board" with me.
Nishii is planning to go to CALIFORNIA next time in mid-September. This year marks the 25th anniversary of Mayhem starting to shape boards at their current surfboard factory in San Clemente. We are planning an event to exhibit all the boards we have shaped so far. I was contacted to bring this "Hot Rod Board" that was on display at Love Surf's clothing store to the event. The light still comes on. The shape is of course Mayhem and the decoration is Drew. It's heavy and I'm afraid it might break, but I'll try my best to carry it. Since it will be held during the ASP event period, it is likely to attract attention from the surfing industry around the world. Stay tuned for a report on the event!
