Thank you very much for all your reservations! If you are interested in the "BIG RIG DRIVER" released for middle-aged surfers who love point noses, we recommend you make your reservation early!

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. NEW FOR 2025! A concept never before seen! We've been receiving a flood of preorders for our new model "BIG RIG DRIVER," so it looks like future delivery times will be delayed... If you want to ride before Golden Week, make sure to make your reservation early! NEW CONCEPT! We have received an overwhelming response from users who have been waiting for a surfboard like the unprecedented "BIG RIG DRIVER," and have received many reservations. The current "BIG RIG DRIVER" stockboard is [ap_show_item 366073] MADE IN JAPAN QUALITY 5'10”×19.50”×2.60” 31.75cl Beginner ~50kg Intermediate 45-55kg Advanced 50-60kg (178×49.5×6.60cm) POLYESTER / MADE IN USA [ap_show_item 367318] 6’6”×20.50”×2.82” 40.00cl Beginner ~70kg Intermediate 65-75kg Advanced 70-80kg (198×52.1×7.16cm) [ap_show_item 367320] 6’8”×20.75”×2.91” 43.00cl Beginner ~75kg Intermediate 70-80kg Advanced 75-85kg (195×51.4×6.99cm) [ap_show_item 367269] 6’10”×21.00”×2.95” 45.00cl Beginner ~80kg Intermediate 75-85kg Advanced 80-90kg (208×53.3×7.49cm) All 4 sizes are available now! I love point noses, but with today's high-performance boards, it's great if you can catch a wave, but I think there are a lot of middle-aged surfers who struggle to catch waves and can only catch a few per hour. As winter draws to a close, the number of surfers gradually increases and the waves become more intense. With the high season approaching, add the BIG RIG DRIVER, a driver for older surfers, to your quiver! I have the technique but I'm lacking in stamina... Struggling to catch waves at a crowded spot... But I want to rippin' with a surfboard with a pointed nose... Then! The main board for 2025 will definitely be the "BIG RIG DRIVER"! For details on the "BIG RIG DRIVER" model, click here!

There are only a few JAPAN LIMITED "ROUND NOSE ROUND" left, which is based on "ROUND NOSE FISH" and tuned to suit Japanese surfers and Japanese waves!

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. There are only a few copies left of "ROUND NOSE ROUND," a PLACEBO tune based on the iconic LOST "ROUND NOSE ROUND," which is engraved in the history of surfboards around the world, and tailored to Japanese surfers and Japanese waves! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4nuPlCZlr0&t=1s The ROUND NOSE ROUND is a Japan-exclusive model jointly developed by Pro Nishii and MAYHEM for average Japanese surfers. The "ROUND NOSE ROUND" project, which started in 2021, went through repeated trial and error behind the scenes and was released as the ultimate wave magnet machine in 2024! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92rPFizGmr0&t=2s By making the design inherited from the "ROUND NOSE FISH" even wider, the surfboard floats above the water, allowing it to move smoothly on the surface without resistance! The round tail of this high-volume "ROUND NOSE ROUND" is a perfect match and directly contributes to its excellent driving performance! The excellently designed surfboard "ROUND NOSE ROUND" has excellent performance even in the waves of Bali, as can be seen in the photo above! If you want to prioritize performance, a shorter length is a good choice! [ap_show_item 349222] DURA-FLEX, the one and only technology that PLACEBO is proud of, tends to be known for its overwhelming strength and high resale value compared to POLYESTER surfboards, as it is semi-permanently resistant to discoloration from the sun. However, its supple flex and springback provide excellent acceleration performance, and combined with the excellent surfboard design of the ROUND NOSE ROUND, it will take riders to the next stage!
