Learn moreMayhem has two types of "Wheels" for you all.
Mayhem and ASR seemed busy explaining the LOST Surfskate, which was being unveiled for the first time. As expected from a developer, he gave a logical explanation of the design. Each model was sold precisely. Regarding "LOST Surfskate" from Mayhem, I have something I would like to tell you all. There are two models of Lost Surf Skate wheels. This is the "Black Sheep" wheel. It has width, but it has an angle on the inside, This will keep the bike in contact with the ground even when the angle is increased during a turn. It has the performance to skate not only on the street but also in skate parks. These are the Scorcher wheels. The center of the outside of the wheel is carved deep, Even if you turn at an angle, this part flexes. The skate wheels don't slide and keep the turn in place. The one that matches the deck design of the "Lost Surf Skate" will be set as the standard. The color also matches the graphic on the bottom of the skate deck. The two model colors will be combined with different colors. Mayhem's attention to detail is evident. This is the one I want most: Brandt. With the "Scorcher" wheels, the deck rocker etc. The finish is like a surfboard, something that is unlike anything else produced by other manufacturers. "LOST Surfskate" will be held in Yokohama from February 16th to 18th in Japan. It will be unveiled for the first time at the Interstyle Show!
Learn moreASR Buyers from around the world are also paying close attention to the new material HYDROFLEX!
Today it's San Diego. It's the second day of the ASR Trade Show. This is the FIREWIRE booth. The "Scorcher FST" model was on display. The person in the middle is familiar to anyone from the Ault School of FIREWIRE, Former professional surfer Chuy Reina. Buyers from around the world attending the event are fascinated by new materials. The new HYDROFLEX, which allows you to increase or decrease air pressure with a pump to adjust buoyancy, is attracting attention. The new HYDROFLEX has the same 3D laminate structure as the previous model, which is only possible with HYDROFLEX. It has greater breaking strength than any other board. If there is even one pinhole, the function of increasing or decreasing the air pressure with the pump and adjusting the buoyancy will not work. The precision of the 3D laminate structure, which only HYDROFLEX can achieve, is incredible. HYDROFLEX is seeing a huge increase in demand for HYDROFLEX boards in California. I moved from Germany to California. This means that custom orders will take less time to complete than ever before. There were also fashion shows and the venue was more lively than usual!
Learn moreI went to Epoxy Pro, the company that makes XTR.
Today's waves at Upper Trestles. The waves are small but good. Today we are going to a restaurant in Oceanside that has become familiar to everyone. I went to Epoxy Pro, the company that makes XTR boards. Its balance of high-performance flex and durability is particularly excellent, It is so popular in Japan that production cannot keep up. It's ``XTR 3D CARBOLIC.'' This is the QUEST series mark. These marks were actually printed in Japan, It is sent to the USA. In particular, the printing ink for epoxy resin in Japan is This is because it matches the XTR resin and does not discolor. This is the classic QUEST series, the Conquest XTR 3D CARBOLIC board. Here is a freshly laminated RIPQUEST. We focused on finding custom order boards that were taking longer to be completed. I asked them to expedite the production. These will be completed by the end of this week and after mid-February, This is a custom-ordered board arriving at Love Surf. There were also stock boards lined up that were almost finished, I'm looking forward to these arriving at Love Surf.
