Learn moreThe 5'9" F1-STUB was in good condition so I rode it again.
Today's topic is F1-STUB. I rode it yesterday and it was so good that I want to ride it again. The waves are like this, LOWER trestle, I went surfing early in the morning, aiming for a light break. After surfing, we went to the LOST surfboard warehouse, I have asked them to send this used Cory Lopez gun to Japan. After that, we drove about 15 minutes south from San Clemente. We went to the XTR factory in Oceanside. To the owner, Habiya, I checked and urged them to finish the boards that were taking longer to be completed. This drum contains the raw material for the hardener used to harden XTR epoxy resin. It looks beautiful when you add a blue airbrush like this to the 3D XTR board. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/board/custom_order.html Custom orders are available. Habiyar is a heavy EFX user , Let me show you how heavy it is. The office chairs, The factory phone Mobile phones, too, I also have it attached to my computer. EFX also has the effect of blocking electromagnetic waves. Furthermore, it is also pasted on a board like this, Last weekend, the West Coast Under 50 Legends Class He also won the Amateur Grand Champion award. He says the EFX effect in the ocean is tremendous. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/item_search/rootCategoryId,15/childCategoryId,65/ If you haven't tried EFX yet, we encourage you to experience its effects firsthand with a balance test.
Learn moreFirst ride on the 5'9" FI-STUB! Looser and lighter than the 5'10"!
The waves were smaller than the previous day, The waves are still clean and good enough. This is a long wave on the upper trestle right shoulder. I surfed with Mayhem. Mayhem is my favorite brand model right now. This is the Mayhem fin, which will be released by FUTURE Fins. It will feature the Planet logo and will be released in three sizes. Today Nishii is riding the 5'9" FI-STUB for the first time. You can see the slight concave in the morning sun. I also ride the 5'10" FI-STUB, but because it's shorter, it's looser and lighter. The FI-STUB has a wider tail like the Scorcher, The nose is thin and has little volume.
Learn moreFill it up with air with a pump! SPEEDQUEST prototype!
Today's trestle waves. It's clean, the swells are directional and the breaks are consistent. I rode my bike from the Mayhem house to the beach. The waves are good, so Mayhem is heading there in a hurry. This looks like a ROCKET board, but if you look closely, you'll see that it's a towel. This is an interesting towel that will soon be released by LOST. It will also be available for purchase at Luvsurf, so stay tuned! Today I rode the 5'5" SPEEDQUEST prototype. This 5'5" SPEEDQUEST prototype is not a standard 5'5" size. The Mayhem is now narrower at 18 3/4" so it can handle bigger waves. This is a test version that has been thinned down to 2 1/8 inches. Previously, it was made in Germany, This board was made in a newly built factory in California, It is engineered in Germany. (meaning it was drafted in Germany) This Hydroflex changes the flex by increasing or decreasing the air pressure. The biggest attraction is being able to ride according to the wave quality. I was able to really feel the effects today. In the early morning when the wave faces are clean, fill up the tank with air and drive hard. When the wind starts to blow, let the air out so that it's about half full. When the waves get really rough, let all the air out and the board will become softer. It fits the wave surface well. When deflating, wait for the waves and make sure you can see the valve in the seawater. After submerging it a little, press the valve with your fingernail and bubbles will come out.

Today's lower trestle. This morning, the west swell came in from the south side onshore and increased in size. The waves are not clean. In the morning, there's a business meeting at Mayhem's house. This photo shows what it looks like. You can see the LOST surf skate wheels. The LOST surf skates were scheduled to arrive in late May, The production has been delayed and will now be completed in mid-June. We apologize to those who have made reservations and are waiting. Please wait a few more weeks for delivery. Mayhem keeps it in the garage, This is Kolohe's "SUB SCORCHER," which you may have seen in photos in numerous surf magazines. This is the Mayhem Fin, released by FUTURE. Checking out the waves from behind Mayhem's house. The left break at Cottons looks like it will be possible to ride for a long time from offshore. Going to surf with Mayhem. Today I'm going to introduce the longest one I have, which I received on my last trip to the USA. I went surfing on the 5'10" F1-STUB model. There was a lot of water, it was powerful, and the waves were about double, so they were good.
Learn moreToday's first board is the 5'6" SUB-SCORCHER!
Today's waves at Lower Trestle. The wind was blowing from the left side onshore, and the waves were not good. As a result, there were fewer people and we were able to ride as much as we wanted. The board I used for my first ride was a 5'6" SUB-SCORCHER. This is my second SUB-SCORCHER board. My previous SUB-SCORCHER was 5'8", so it still felt short. I think I'd like to use this 5'6" board in smaller waves. It seems like a board this short would be good for Japanese waves. PLANK airbrush. When you infiltrate the Lost Surfboard Shape Factory, Mayhem will be going to South Africa next week to get in shape, Today, Friday, I was busy trying to get in shape. Lost is now number one in popularity not only in Japan but also in the US. We have built a management system to make boards faster than before, We are receiving more orders for boards and it is now taking longer than the previous 3-4 months. Today, my beloved dog Brody (a great dane) was also visiting Shape. This is what I wanted to confirm most during my visit to the US. This is a sample of an elevator wing shape using two straight stringer forms. The stringer end will be caught on the elevator wing, I wanted to see if Mayhem's skills could somehow shape that area without any problems. However, as you can see, there was no need to worry. That's what you'd expect from Mayhem. These two straight stringer forms add strength reinforcement to the glass, We will be making it available for sale soon so stay tuned!
