I went to Barsham's in San Clemente!

I went to Barsham's in San Clemente! I went to Barsham's, the largest surfboard manufacturing facility in San Clemente, owned by Mayhem. Mayhem's surf shop, Catalyst, has also moved here and reopened as a surf shop specializing in Lost surfboards. Mayhem took over the huge, historic surfboard factory in San Clemente called Barsham's, and recently opened a SUR coffee shop within the facility, making it a hot topic. This is where USA-made Lost Surfboards are made every day. I met up with Mayhem inside the factory and had a business meeting. The 2025 models are all very popular, and Lost's popularity is only increasing! "Barshams" which I ordered previously is collaborating with "Catalyst". Clothing and other items will be on sale at Love Surf soon, so stay tuned! World premiere with the latest technology "LIGHT SPEED 2"! https://youtu.be/q0uNG3ATrzw

Everyone! Thank you for coming to our store and purchasing so many new LOST "Black Sheep Built" items!

Mr. A, LOST "MICK'S TAPE" BLUE TEXTURE Black Sheep Built was selected. While he was choosing a board, the one that caught his eye was the MICKS TAPE. He was thinking about getting one because of its shape and size that would be good for average waves below head height, and then a friend of his advised him that if he wanted one, he should just buy it, so he came to our store and purchased the 5'8" size. Mr. B, LOST "PISCES" Black Sheep Built was chosen. Last time, he purchased the SMOOTH OPERATOR as his first LOST MAYHEM board, and it became easier to take off, which led to him riding more boards, which sparked his interest in other models. After that, he watched a YouTube video of the PISCES model BLACK SHEEP, and was amazed by its nimble movement, which made him decide he wanted one. However, it had only been a month since his last purchase, so he was worried about what to buy, but it had finally begun to appear in his dreams, so he decided he had no choice but to buy the 5'8" size and came to our store. Mr. C said, He chose LOST's "PISCES" BLACK SHEEP BUILT. He is a heavy Luv surf user who uses various MAYHEM shape design surfboards depending on the wave conditions. He came to Luv Surf after learning that the PISCES, made with his favorite material, BLACK SHEEP BUILT, was going to be released. When he heard that it was a derivative model of the RNF'96, one of our magic boards, he immediately decided to ride it, saying, "I absolutely have to ride it!" He immediately rode it and gave us some great feedback: "The performance is amazing, it looks like it's going to become one of our magic boards!" Mr. D, He chose LOST's "PARTY PLATTER" BLACK SHEEP BUILT. This veteran surfer is a big fan of the LOST RNF-RETRO REVAMP. The PARTY PLATTER was chosen to be enjoyed during the rainy season's RNF-RETRO REVAMP and in tough small wave conditions. The special textured white BLACK SHEEP BUILT, which even US customs can't make, is a collector's item! This is a combination of the ultimate small wave model PARTY PLATTER and BLACK SHEEP BUILT, so be careful not to ride too hard! Mr. E, He chose LOST's "PUDDLE JUMPER STING" BLACK SHEEP BUILT. Customers who use MAYHEM boards of various lengths, such as RNF96 and SMOOTH OPERATOR, It was a short, wide, and unique board with a slightly unusual outrun, so I was interested in it. He came to our store, saw the actual board, liked it so much that he purchased the 5'1" size. Everyone! Thank you for visiting our store! Thank you for purchasing the new LOST "Black Sheep Built"! https://youtu.be/OwoNNAzf2uY
