Learn moreANCHOR wetsuits may be making their first appearance in "WT"!
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!

Luvsurf TV: LOST “DRIVER” Chucky Rigano Rider: Chucky Rigano Board used: LOST 5'10" 『DRIVER』POLYESTER FILM & EDIT：TOKU-TOTAL VIDEO SERVICE Chucky is a little chubby and has a similar surfing style to Okkie, The nickname my friends call me is "Chaki Lupo." The LOST "DRIVER" model is another Same as high performance models such as FI-STUB and SCORCHER Regardless of length, width, or thickness, this is the board that gives the most buoyancy and volume, so it's perfect for those who want more buoyancy in a standard board, This is a tri-fin board with a flat rocker design that is recommended for those who don't want to ride wide fish. The board has a straight outline, which gives it the ability to drive turns. In this movie, the "DRIVER" model is Chucky's specialty, the backside lip. He is capable of aggressive, continuous backside movements that you wouldn't expect from his physique or personality.

I went board surfing in Tokyo Bay for the first time in a while. A commemorative photo of the six participants in the "Tokyo Bay Board Surfing" event. A shot before departure, getting excited! Place your surfboard on the board rack next to the boat. The boat leaves Tokyo Bay Marina and passes under the Bayshore Expressway, which we always pass when going north to Chiba. This is Keiichi's second time here, and he's using the Placebo 6'0" SCORCHER model that he just recently acquired. This is Bane-san, who is also here for the second time. He caught a series of lips, something I've never seen before in the ocean. Board surfing is so fun and fascinating that once you try it you'll want to do it again and again. Goofy is backside surfing Masaru, who was riding for the first time, was riding a DRIVER 5'10" POLY, but the bike in this photo is a TABLET 5'10". Mr. N, a veteran board surfer, is using the Placebo 5'10" SUB-SCORCHER model. Here is Miyauchi about to take off on his TABLET 5'10". Nishii's bike is a LOST 5'10" F1-STUB XTR PARALLEL-FLEX. Once you get used to it, you can ride it for about 2-3 minutes, so if you ride it too many times in a row, I was on the verge of oxygen deprivation and my legs were so tired I couldn't stand like this. But the good thing about board surfing is You can take videos and photos from various angles and check your riding form later. It's great for strength training for surfing. The 2 minute 30 second video of Nishii riding is posted on the wall of our Facebook page, so http://www.facebook.com/koji.nishii Everyone, please take a look.

Learn moreThis was a test ride event for the "Presebo Surfboard" held for three consecutive weeks.
Today we once again held a Presebo surfboard test ride event in Higashinami, Chiba Prefecture. This marks the third consecutive week that we've been holding test drives, and the third consecutive week of extreme heat. Today's waves are The waves were small and waist-high, but the terrain was good so the waves were good enough for a test ride. Since the waves were small, many people wanted to try out shorter, more buoyant models. Popular models include SUB-SCORCHER, BLACKSHEEP, and TABLET! The AUROLA "REY" fins that I introduced in yesterday's blog, I rode it with a 5'6" BLACK SHEEP/QUADLOW fin. It also works well with BLACKSHEEP. The waves in the evening were high tide and thick, The QUAD fins are moderately loose and have a little bit of stickiness to the try. The ideal 5-fin setting is complete.

Luvsurf TV: Placebo 『POWERQUEST』 Rider: Koji Nishii Board used: Placebo 5'8" POWERQUEST FLEXLITE-TURBO FILM & EDIT：TOKU-TOTAL VIDEO SERVICE The POWERQUEST model is very easy to speed up, Once the board starts sliding, you can easily ride through sections where your speed would normally stop. In this riding video you can see how he can surf through sections that don't break. The turbo carbon installed on the bottom is also extremely effective, and the more you pump the board, the faster you move forward. And what supports its speed performance is the Axel 2 channel designed on the bottom. This Mayhem designed and developed channel is deep enough to regulate the water flow on the bottom and allow the board to move forward. This channel also has a separate rocker, which improves the tail's rotation. The elevator wing, which is higher than other QUEST series, increases the sharpness of the turns. For those who feel that they are no longer physically able to surf at high speeds on a standard competition board. This is a highly recommended shortboard model for adults that offers both buoyancy and high performance.
