We recommend the Scorcher as your main tri-fin!

It seems to be snowing in Tokyo, but it's also mid-winter here in California, so it's cold. During the day, when the sun comes out, the temperature rises and it gets warm, but in the early morning there is no sun, It's very cold. The road to the beach looks cold too. However, even in this cold weather, Nishii has a powerful ally. That's right, the TAVARUA Surf Beanie 3mm. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/item_detail/itemId,308/ X-GEAR [EX-HEATER] is a waist belt with a built-in battery heater. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/item_detail/itemId,310/ The waves at Trestles today have grown in size like this. Nishii was fully equipped and prepared for the extreme cold. This is Tatsushi, a placebo rider living in San Clemente. The waves are thick like this in the morning because the tide is rising. Still, the shoulders are long. As the waves got bigger, Mayhem, Dino and Dino, Kolohe Andino, Sheeropes, Luke Davis, Nate Iyoman, Mike Parsons, People like these were surfing. When it comes up from the sea, I often come across surfers entering the ocean with Scorchers. Speaking of Scorchers, this guy is Kolohe Andino. As we announced the other day, our sponsor has changed from Billabong to TARGET. The red circle is the TARGET mark. The surfer on the right in the photo also has a Scorcher board! "Scorcher" was released by both Lost and Presebo. The design is perfect for Japan's thicker beach breaks. If you're looking for your main tri-fin board, I highly recommend the Scorcher. If you want a "Scorcher," ...LOST "Scorcher" is here, http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/camp/scorcher.html For Placebo's "Scorcher", please click here. http://luvsurf.co.jp/24sblog/?p=2019

Please try AUROLA's "FLEX-FIVE"!

Today's waves at Lower Trestle. The waves are small, about waist-high. 15-year rainfall is not normal in Upper Trestles. It becomes a flowing river and forms a sandbar. So, the landscape is usually full of boulders, It has sand on top of the boulders like a beach break. If you hollow out a small wave and get some swell, It looks like you can experience the waves of Rivermouth. However, today the size is smaller, so SPEEDQUEST will be deployed. Fins are AUROLA FLEX-FIVE (clear) , The QUAD setting works great. This fin is loose but has a soft flex, We also do driving, so please give it a try. There are many other types of AUROLA fins available. You can use different fins depending on the wave conditions and the board to bring out the full performance of the board. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/item_search/rootCategoryId,1/childCategoryId,9 / You can purchase it from our online store here! When I went to Lost's surfboard factory, the factory manager, Sean, He showed me this new form and asked me to test it out. This is the same double stringer form that Kelly used. Since there are no stringers in the nose or tail, it is said to have very soft flex. However, since it does not have a stringer, it is prone to breaking, so testing is required. I ordered it from SCORCHR, so I'm looking forward to seeing it completed. This is kept securely in Mayhem's office. This is a laminated mark rack for Lost surfboards. Proof of authentic import from LOST, known for its reliable quality! The "TUNED FOR JAPAN MAYHEM" mark is also here. A work by Terry, who is in charge of airbrushing. The combination of brushes and colors is beautiful and cool, and you have great taste. Taylor cut the foam, The data created by Mayhem one by one is programmed into a PC. This board was made by a former Love Surf team rider who has been with us for many years. Currently, he sells Lost & Placebo in Kawasaki City. It was Shinbou from Colors' new 2010 model, the GOROCKET XTR 3D CARBOLIC. There were Cory boards and Kolohe boards, I got these so I could display them at Love Surf. It will be on display in stores in February, so look forward to it!

The best surf gear to keep you comfortable even in the freezing cold of California!

Here's a report from California in the middle of the frigid winter. This morning in California, even the body of a car is freezing. Until yesterday, a huge storm hit, bringing the heaviest rainfall in 15 years, so there are waves! but, The water was murky after a week of record rain. Furthermore, Because the water temperature is dropping, We had prepared this from Japan in case something like this happened. "TAVARUA" Surf Beanie 3mm, http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/item_detail/itemId,308/ 【EX-HEATER】 http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/item_detail/itemId,310/ I put it on right away and went surfing! The weather is nice, but as you can see from the photo, the wind is strong and cold, and it hurts my ears. I'm so glad I found a surf beanie! It keeps the wind out and my head warm. The cold also decreases dramatically. And, of course, the best part is this X-GEAR [EX-HEATER] ! The warmth lasts longer than expected. The manufacturer claims it lasts for 2 hours, but in reality it lasts for about 2.5 hours. The seawater was cold, so the difference between the high temperature of the heater and the low temperature of the seawater was very noticeable. I felt like I was the only one getting it, but it was all thanks to this [EX-HEATER]. All the surfers waiting for waves were cold, but Nishii was totally fine! When your lower back is warm in the water, you don't feel so cold and it's comfortable. Nishii, a 45-year-old middle-aged surfer, felt grateful. When surfing, it's also about boards that allow you to ride the waves easily. Wouldn't it be nice to rely on surf gear that makes things easier? Please try out this X-GEAR [EX-HEATER] . It is especially recommended for people like Nishii who suffer from back pain, as it also has preventative effects. They sold out in a flash, and there are only two left in stock on the online store. First come, first served! (Please be careful as it may be too hot inside a dry suit.) Mayhem has been given a blue airbrush treatment and will be officially released as a model this year. I was surfing with GOR0KET. I was able to move as agile as Gorkin. This is an evolved board from the ROCKET to a single wing swallowtail!

Mayhem wins another STAB MAGAZINE AWARD

Mayhem wins another STAB MAGAZINE AWARD! THE 2009 STAB AWARDS Below I will share some of the information I have written briefly with you all. The FISH board I designed 15 years ago, The RNF 5'5" x 19 1/4" is wide and has a narrow tail. It still influences people like Dane and Kelly. The current Dane is Ward/Cory Lopez from 15 years ago. You're doing the same thing. It's the 15-year cycle rule . 15 years ago there was Chris Ward/Cory Lopez; Now we have Kolohe Andino, right? The boards of the shapers who have been very successful on the WCT tour are It's just a board for WCT riders. For example, Simon (Anderson) Jason (Stevenson, JS) Darren (Handley, DHD) I'm a big guy, but I can't surf the 2-foot break in front of my house. I'm good at designing the boards that I need. If you can't catch a wave, you can't surf. And if you can't skate fast, you can't do anything. Even if you can ski fast, it's no use if you can't control your maneuvers. When it comes to board design, the bottom line is the most important thing. A surfboard is something that can catch a lot of waves, It needs to be fast and easy to control. Chris Ward is no longer on the WCT Tour, He's one of the top five surfers in 6-10 foot waves. I just turned 31 and I have high hopes for the future. LOST has become a bigger brand than before, Unlike other big brands, we don't go outside the surf shop. We will continue to be the most core brand that continues to make its own surfboards . Good luck Mayhem! This year marks the 15th anniversary of Love Surf's opening!
