Currently underway! "Buy 4 high-performance DRIVER models and receive free fins!" This campaign also applies to the strongest small wave model, SUP DRIVER!

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. The event that started suddenly yesterday, "Buy 4 high performance models of 'DRIVER' and get a free fin!" has already been taken advantage of by many customers! That's because you can get a free tri-fin when you purchase any of the four DRIVER models, which are designed by MAYHEM, the world's number one shaper and have been winning titles in competition scenes all over the world! Of the four "DRIVER" models, the "SUP DRIVER" is the strongest model for the small waves of the beach breaks common in Japan, and is a Japan-exclusive model that is perfect for those of us who surf in Japan! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8GeCycyQv8&list=TLGGR9cyRTH7SXcyMTAzMjAyNA LOST's "SUP DRIVER" was created to accommodate the situation where the waves would be small during the Tokyo Olympics, which was held at Shidashita by "MAYHEM." Even in small conditions with little shoulder, the short length makes it easy to move agilely and pick up speed, making it a high-performance model that is easy to use for vertical lip and air revers. To repeat, The world's number one shaper, Mayhem, designed this surfboard to win even in the small waves at Japanese beach breaks, and Kolohe Andino tested and completed the model, so it's no wonder it's great! Last year, Kolohe Andino won the QS riding a SUP DRIVER, proving the excellent performance of the SUP DRIVER model! The SUP DRIVER is the shortest model in the DRIVER series. This is a high-performance model that is very easy to handle, even for older surfers who are heavy for their height! This is a high-performance model, so choosing the right size can be particularly difficult, so please feel free to contact us at a Love Surf store, by phone, or by email!
