Deep, distinctive footprints that form on the Magic Board when you step on it ■ CL-Pro 『Exacta』 (Corey Lopez Pro Model Exacta) 6' 1" x 18.38" x 2.18" (188 x 46.7 x 5.53 cm) ★Scheduled to arrive in March I have introduced it before, Placebo's 6' 1" CL-Pro "Exacta" Another model has been announced for "Exacta." ■ Slasher 『Exacta』 (Ashanoran Slasher Exacta) 5' 11" x 18.18" x 2.13" (185 x 46.1 x 5.4 cm) ★Scheduled to arrive in June Both Exacta models incorporate a foot dent system. What is a foot dent? We noticed this when scanning the board they were on. I decided that there was no need to fill in and scan the footprints of my stance on the board. The deep foot marks that form on a Magic Board are the result of the board adapting to your feet the more you ride it. The world's first cutting-edge idea, the FOOT DENT SYSTEM, adopted in this molded board helps lock your feet in and keep them in the sweet spot of the board as you surf. It functions like a familiar magic board from the first time you step on it.

Photographed in October 2007 on the US Lost website, Chris Ward's surf clip has been released. It's California, with a straight, well-maintained offshore beach and up-swell. The main surfers are Chris Ward, but also Brad Ettinger, Matt King, Ryan Carlson, Shaun Okfist and Pat Towersey. Chris is really good at backside tubing! Immediately after taking off, he dips his left hand into the wave to slow down and get neatly wrapped up in the barrel!
Learn moreChristian is also parabolic!
Christian, I'm riding a parabolic. That is a natural thing to say, This is the same photo that was used in a Luker advertisement in US Surfing magazine. In reality, the board has the Lost logo on it, but Luker ran an ad in the US offering to remove the Lost logo using Photoshop. Here is a photo of the Luker advertisement. If you were going to delete it, I think it would have been better not to post it. What's more, Christian also seems to like the parabolic one!
Learn moreWill Gokin come to Japan this year?
Gokin will soon be heading off to Australia for a contest and filming. Such a Gokin has been created recently, He seems to really like riding the RNFQ. Previously, I introduced the Nemo airbrush design board. I ride it a lot, both for filming and for personal use. This is a new type with a narrower nose and is for intermediate and advanced RNFQ riders. If you haven't tried out the short and wide boards or Lost's signature RNFQ yet, Give it a try. It depends on how you choose your surfboard. Will Gokin come to Japan this year?

Fish Quest in the home of small waves, the seas of Japan This movie shows the speed and agility of the takeoff. Today, I forced Toku-san from Total Video Service, who was feeling a bit under the weather, I had the editing done. We have prepared an episode where Hiroki from Love Surfrider rides the super crowded Sunday waves at Onjuku, Chiba using Fish Quest as his weapon, and an episode where Mayhem rides the small waves of California, so stay tuned!
Learn moreI really caught it, so please take a look.
A DVD of Nishii's Mentawai trip, which he covered last year, has been released. It was released by Surf First magazine on February 1st. Nishii appears on the DVD included with the March 2008 issue. I'm also in charge of the story, so please check it out. This is a remake of 24'S Endless Johnny, which is posted on this site. The fish that Nishii catches at the beginning of the DVD is a Spanish mackerel. Why in that scene? He shouted, "I think I caught it!" I really caught it, so please take a look. I had it as sashimi and it was delicious.
Learn moreFirst public release? Unreleased? This is the new fin base from FCS.
This is the new fin base from FCS. You can now use FCS' new fin bases when building boards with EPS foam. When EPS foam is glass coated with epoxy resin, The outer epoxy resin is strong, but the EPS foam inside is weak. If you attach the previous plug directly, you will need to reinforce the strength of the fin cup. FCS could not be used, but unlike previous models, the base has been improved and it can now be embedded directly. It's a perfect match for making EPS parabolic stringer boards!
