The buoyancy of Presebo is now displayed in liters as a numerical value, "CL"!

We have started displaying the buoyancy of Presebo in liters as a "CL" value! CL = Cubic volume of Liters (Board volume = buoyancy in liters) Each model of Presebo is introduced on the page, http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/board/placebo_model.html On the special page for each model, The size of the board/appropriate weight is written after "cl" is the volume of the board in liters. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/camp/CL_size.html The volume of the board itself is the value of the board's buoyancy. I think you learned about Archimedes' principle in junior high school. "Buoyancy is the weight of the water it displaces." In other words, the buoyancy is the volume that is submerged in water. Compare the buoyancy of the board you currently own with the buoyancy of the next board you will ride. You can compare the boards before purchasing without actually riding them. Please remember the CL buoyancy value of the board you are currently using. It's easy to find other models with similar buoyancy. If you want to paddle or take off faster, If you need buoyancy, such as a board for use in small or thick waves, choose a board with a higher number. If you want less buoyancy and more movement from the board, choose a board with a lower number. Below is a list of them. "SCORCHER" 5' 8” x 18.25” x 2.13” (173 x 46.3 x 5.4 cm) 50-60kg 23.4cl 5' 9” x 18.38” x 2.18” (175 x 46.7 x 5.55cm) 55-65kg 23.8cl 5' 10”x 18.75” x 2.25” (178 x 47.6 x 5.7 cm) 60-70kg 24.5cl 5' 11”x 19.00” x 2.31” (180 x 48.2 x 5.85cm) 65-75kg 25.8cl 6' 0” x 19.25” x 2.38” (183 x 48.9 x 6.0 cm) 73-80kg 27.1cl 6' 2” x 19.50” x 2.50” (188 x 49.5 x 6.2 cm) 78-88kg 30.1cl "AIRQUEST" 5' 4” x 19.25” x 2.07” (163 x 48.9 x 5.25cm) 50-63kg 24.72cl 5' 6” x 19.50” x 2.13” (168 x 49.5 x 5.4 cm) 60-70kg 26.53cl 5' 8” x 19.75” x 2.25” (173 x 50.1 x 5.7 cm) 65-75kg 29.17cl 5'10" x 20.00" x 2.38" (178 x 50.8 x 6.0 cm) 73-83kg 32.08cl "ROCKET" 5'5" x 18.75" x 2.13" (165 x 47.6 x 5.4 cm) 50-63kg 24.5cl 5'7" x 19.00" x 2.25" (170 x 48.2 x 5.7 cm) 60-70kg 26.7cl 5'9" x 19.50" x 2.38" (175 x 49.5 x 6.0 cm) 68-75kg 28.8cl 5'11"x 20.00" x 2.50" (180 x 50.8 x 6.35cm) 73-83kg 31.5cl 6'1" x 20.50" x 2.63" (185 x 52.0 x 6.7 cm) 80-90kg 35.3cl "TABLET" 5'8" x 19.75" x 2.50" (173 x 50.1 x 6.35cm) 50-65kg 30.74cl 5'10" x 20.00" x 2.63" (178 x 50.8 x 6.7 cm) 55-70kg 33.66cl 6'0" x 20.25" x 2.75" (183 x 51.4 x 7.0 cm) 65-80kg 36.6 cl 6'2" x 20.50" x 2.88" (188 x 52.0 x 7.3 cm) 75-90kg 39.81cl 6'4" x 20.75" x 3.0" (193 x 52.7 x 7.65cm) 80-95kg 43.06cl RIPQUEST 5'9" x19.63"x2.25" (175 x 49.8 x 5.7 cm) 50-65kg 27.41cl 5'11"x19.88"x2.38" (180 x 50.5 x 6.0 cm) 60-75kg 30.16cl 6'1" x20.13"x2.50" (185 x 51.1 x 6.35cm) 70-85kg 32.9 cl For example, the 5'8" of the Tablet is more buoyant than the 5'9" of the Rocket. It has less buoyancy than the 5'11" and almost the same as the Scorcher's 6'2". Depending on the board's rocker and outline design The speed of take-off and paddling may vary slightly, This CL number is an important number that will help you choose a board. *A difference of just 1cl can result in a noticeable difference in buoyancy. *CL does not correspond to ideal weight. Each model's concept design is recommended for different body types. This is because the weight settings are different. *Only available on new models digitally designed using the latest shape machine programs.

The waves are small again today in the San Clemente area!

The waves are small again today in the San Clemente area. This is T-Street. The waves are small, so no one is surfing. The waves are about waist-deep in Japan, but it was my first time at T-STREETH where I didn't see a single person surfing. This is the North Side of San Clemente Pier. No one is surfing here either. This is LOWERS. The waves are small but clean. As expected, there are always more sizes available here than anywhere else. Mr. Okuyama and Mrs. Okuyama, head salesmen at FAB Japan, I heard you're on vacation in San Clemente. We met up and went surfing. The board is my favorite, the GORKIN FIVE. The waves were like this and we enjoyed the private surf for a few hours until the wind started to blow. Shaw from Team Luvsurf also came surfing with his friends on an XTR/SCORCHER.
