A special page for the PLACEBO "RAD DIABLO2.0" model has been released! * The excellent shape design of the LOST "RAD RIPPER" can be ridden with FLEXLITE technology. *A Japan Limited model developed for all-around use in Japanese wave conditions. *Equipped with PLACEBO's traditional EVW (elevator wing) to allow the thick rails to move smoothly. *Inherits the easy and fast takeoff and paddle performance inherited from the TABLET and QUEST series * Equipped with a dolphin grab rail for easy dolphin passage. *Single to double concave to two channel bottom *FCS2/5 fin plug The famous Austrian web magazine "STAB" conducted a survey by calling 100 surf shops around the world, and found that The LOST "Rad-Ripper" model was announced as the best-selling surfboard model in the world. Based on that model, shaper and designer Matt "MAYHEM" Biolos retuned it specifically for the Japanese surfboard market, designed specifically for the PLACEBO surfboard market. It features the traditional PLACEBO elevator wings, which aid in the initial movement of turns and allow for a combination of nimble rail work and maneuverability. The modest semi-beak nose shape allows the board to have volume all the way to the tip of the nose, allowing you to paddle with more weight forward, which inevitably leads to faster paddling and a quicker takeoff. The board design has a semi-flat deck structure, so it is thick in the center, but it is easy to catch the water surface, and in combination with the semi-staped rails that are thin at the tip, you can turn on the waves as you wish. The bottom surface design is a single, double concave, or two-channel bottom. This complex bottom design not only provides excellent gliding performance, lift, and riding speed, but also controllability that allows you to move around easily on the waves as you wish. With a slightly wide outline, a subtle bottom rocker curve, and a semi-flat deck that makes paddling easy and stable, this board is fun to surf at any level. The latest all-rounder model in the DIABLO series has been born, combining the good qualities of the nostalgic 80's design with a modern twist, making it easy to paddle and suitable for a wide range of conditions from small to large waves.
