Introducing CONQUEST's color custom boards.
We have two custom colored Conquest boards that were ordered shortly after their release, so we'd like to introduce them to you. (These are the initial production boards, so they are FUTURE, but the current boards are FCS spec.) Both boards have elevator wings that bring out the maximum performance of the Conquest and are cleverly incorporated into the color design, making for very well-made boards. For those of you considering a custom order for a Conquest! You can also custom order a Conquest board in this color!!

This is the Gokin 5'8" AC-QUAD on display at Love Surf. This is a painting that GORKIN painted, imitating the AC paint. DN tried painting a custom-ordered SD3. It turned out so well. How about some initial spray paint? It can be done with duct tape and spray, so it doesn't cost much money or take much time. You don't need a new board; you can do this by cleaning the bottom of an existing board.
Learn moreLovesurf is super busy right before the Obon holidays! Thank you everyone!
Mr. K had been eagerly waiting for the CONQUEST model. During the Obon holidays, they plan to go surfing and take a family trip to Shizuoka Prefecture. I'm glad the board was delivered in time for the holidays. Mr. A weighs 80 kg, so he booked the Conquest without hesitation. I heard you have a single fin and other thicker boards. The Conquest that you purchased this time turned out to be the thickest board. Mr. S, who ordered a custom color AVISO RNF, was able to receive it just in time before the Obon holiday. We were worried because we had kept him waiting for so long, but we managed to get it done in time. To everyone else who has made reservations or custom orders. We apologize to everyone, but please forgive us for not being able to deliver the items before the Obon holidays. We will contact you as soon as it is completed, so please look forward to it.
Learn moreNEW Board & Wetsuit
Nishii Personal received his new board and wetsuit today!! The board is a LOST SD3 model Parabolic Stringer Dual Density. The size is 5'10" x 18" x 2 1/16". For some reason, it has a double wing squash tail. UL-ON fins. I'm thinking about painting them now... The wetsuits are produced by sponsor AEROquip, and come in three colors: Seagull, Long Sleeve Spring, and Half Sleeve Spring. These are all 2mm back zipperless, We will now be testing the durability and heat retention of the prototype for next season. It is made of Airdia, a lightweight, rubber and jersey material that provides excellent heat retention. We have already seen good results with a 2mm full suit made from the same type of fabric. We are considering commercializing this product. We will test it with spring/summer wetsuits to see if it is too hot. It's probably thin and warm, so if it can just meet the durability requirements, it will be commercialized. It looks like it will be a model that is easy to move in and has excellent heat retention, so please look forward to it.

Go-kun seems to like it, and today he is wearing Nishii-designed sunglasses and a hat. Why a board case? The FCS product has a sticker from our sponsor, Creator. Then, I put two boards into a hard case designed for one board without any packing. The 5'10" CA-PRO that I used during this Japan trip will be used in Florida in two weeks. I took it home for the WQS2 Star competition. The 5'8" AC-QUAD I used was replaced with a new one from Love Surf's stock and taken home. I brought home two in total. I left behind the remaining two Precebo and one WCT model parabolic stringer board. I'm on the phone with my fiance, who I'm getting married to in November. I stopped by Love Surf and signed autographs for customers. Dress up with a FAB t-shirt, sunglasses, and a cap. I flew back to Florida today.
