From local lowers, with just one week left until the WSL FINALS waiting period starts on September 6th!

WSL FINALS Waiting Period Begins September 6th With just one week left until the tournament, we photographed the players training at the local Lowers. This day was a Sunday, and including Monday, it was a three-day weekend in the US, The waves were also small, so even at that time many people came to the larger lower decks in search of waves. Nishii took his son Jiei to Lowers for a surfing shoot. There were few waves that day, and many people were not able to catch a wave even after entering the water. Caroline Marks, John, John Florence, Kolohe Andino, now a local legend We also filmed super legends like Mick Fanning surfing. We are currently editing these videos in a hurry, so please wait a little while longer until they are available on YouTube for everyone to see.

The long-awaited Matte Black version of OZONE Eyewear's flagship model LOW TIDE is back in stock! New photochromic lenses are also available!

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. OZONE Eyewear, which launched in June 2024 and became a hugely popular eyewear brand in just three months, is releasing a new model of its flagship model, LOW TIDE, with a Matte Black frame and photochromic lenses that change color when exposed to UV rays! The new arrivals sold out immediately! The rugged matte color frames that are typical of OZONE Eyewear are cool! The Matte Black model that has just arrived has a Matte Black surface and a Gloss Black interior that comes into contact with the face, creating a subtle two-tone color! [ap_show_item 358788] The lens color is the popular blue "Gentian Blue"! It's a more vibrant and slightly brighter blue than the previous one! It's not too dark, and the subtle look of your eyes showing just a little bit when you wear it is great! I think many of you already know this because my father, Yasushi Murata, is using it. OZONE Eyewear has released a completely new photochromic lens model! [ap_show_item 358818] [ap_show_item 358809] Sunglasses when outdoors in the sun. Wear them as fashion glasses indoors or at night. We have adopted the long-awaited photochromic lens that can be used in two ways! “Bounce Gray” changes to a relatively darker color, while “Emo Blue” changes to a relatively lighter color. The lens color changes depending on the amount of UV rays and the outside temperature, so you can enjoy the changes with the seasons! OZONE Eyewear is becoming more and more popular with an increasing variety of products. Unlike well-known high-end brand sunglasses, which are mass-produced using molds and simply have the brand name printed on them, these are handmade by artisans, cut out from a single piece of wood, and polished to a high shine by hand, each one carefully finished. The high quality of OZONE Eyewear is a result of Koji Nishii's commitment to his products. For other OZONE Eyewear products, please click here!

What surfboard did Kolohe choose for the waves in Japan? I went to the Japan premiere of "2percent" at Shidashita!

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. The "2percent" team, led by Kolohe Andino, is currently in Japan promoting their first movie, "Hijinx," and the day before yesterday, on August 19th, I went to a free session in Shidashita, Chiba with staff member Ryuji! During a surf session at Shizunami Surf Stadium the day before, we broke the surfboard we had brought with us, so we quickly went to deliver a number of surfboards to Kolohe Andino. Are you curious about what kind of surfboard Kolohe chose? I'm curious lol After preparing a number of carefully selected surfboards, Kolohe Andino chose the following! This is a JAPAN LIMITED MODEL of a beach break against Japan, created by Mayhem and Kolohe Andino for the Tokyo Olympics held at Shidashita! LOST "SUP DRIVER" POLYESTER MADE IN JAPAN QUALITY! The conditions at Shidashita on the day were chest to shoulder high offshore waves, with the latter half of the wave being stronger offshore and quite fast, but Kolohe Andino had a blast with his SUP DRIVER, tubing, airing, and ripping! At times, Kolohe Andino even gave a push to some of the kids who had gathered to surf with him, giving us a glimpse of his kind personality during this super session! On the final day, August 22nd, there will be a surf session and screening at Kizakihama in Miyazaki, so if you're in the area, be sure to come along! *Surf session is scheduled to start at 8am The event will be broadcast on the YouTube channel "Pro Surfer Nishii Koji's Luvsurf TV," so please look forward to it!
