RESTOCK! LOST's "SUB DRIVER2.0" DOUBLE DART will be on sale starting tonight at 8:00 PM!
Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. A high-performance model that is easy to handle not only for competitors but also for casual surfers! LOST's "SUB DRIVER2.0" DOUBLE DART starts today at 8:00 PM! This is the fourth time we have received the LOST "SUB DRIVER2.0" DOUBLE DART. All previous shipments have sold out in an instant, proving how popular this item is! The LOST "SUB DRIVER2.0" DOUBLE DART has actually been used in CS and QS competitions and has achieved good results. That alone tells you how good the surfboard is! Unlike the stiff two-way carbon weave used by other brands, the DOUBLE DART is made from a hybrid of carbon fiber and S-glass, creating a premium EPS material that provides riders with unprecedented responsiveness and high rebound. It uses ultra-lightweight stringerless 1.5 high density EPS blanks with a carbon shell vacuum glass on both sides. Using a special technique exclusive to {BLACK DART}, which is a registered trademark, it flexes smoothly, and the carbon and S-glass give it a high rebound like nothing you've ever experienced before, a special feeling that only surfers can experience. Because the production of DOUBLE DART surfboards requires advanced technology, effort, and time, it is difficult to produce enough stock boards to fulfill the wishes of everyone around the world. As a result, we regret to say that we have only 14 LOST "SUB DRIVER2.0" DOUBLE DART boards in stock at this time, which is extremely limited. 5'6”×18.50”×2.32” 25.00cl (168×47.0×5.89cm) Intermediate 51-55kg , Advanced 55-59kg To purchase, click here! * Available for online purchase from 8:00 PM on Thursday, November 21st . 5'7”×18.63”×2.35” 26.0cl ( 170 × 47.3× 5.96cm ) Intermediate 55-59kg Advanced 59-63kg To purchase, click here! * Available for online purchase from 8:00 PM on Thursday, November 21st . 5'8”×19.00”×2.38” 27.0cl (173×48.3×6.05cm) Intermediate 59-63kg Advanced 63-67kg To purchase, click here! * Available for online purchase from 8:00 PM on Thursday, November 21st . 5'9”×19.25”×2.40” 28.00cl (175×48.9×6.10cm) Intermediate 63 ~ 67kg Advanced 67 ~ 71kg To purchase, click here! * Available for online purchase from 8:00 PM on Thursday, November 21st . 5'10”×19.50”×2.44” 29.25cl (178×49.5×6.17cm) Intermediate 67-71kg Advanced 71-75kg To purchase, click here! * Available for online purchase from 8:00 PM on Thursday, November 21st . 5'11”×19.75”×2.47” 30.50cl (180×50.2×6.25cm) Intermediate 71-73kg Advanced 73-75kg To purchase, click here! * Available for online purchase from 8:00 PM on Thursday, November 21st . excluding tax ¥260,000 including tax ¥286,000 [ap_show_item 87713] [ap_show_item 87721] The recommended fins for the LOST "SUB DRIVER 2.0" DOUBLE DART are: I definitely recommend the KOLOHE ANDINO signature fins!

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DCMxY7zyPVg/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. Cole Hashemand, who was just a rookie last year but won the Rip Curl Pro BELLS BEACH and reached 15th place in the tour rankings, has uploaded a short movie of his PARTY PLATTER DOUBLE DART! The PARTY PLATTER is currently one of Love Surf's best-selling models, and we're receiving a flood of inquiries. Cole Hashemand, who is currently relaxing in the off-season, has chosen the PARTY PLATTER DOUBLE DART for free surfing at California's beach breaks. Unlike other brands' full carbon boards, the DOUBLE DART "PARTY PLATTER" uses LOST's unique carbon and S-glass hybrid "Black Dart" fabric, making it the lightest board and boasting incredibly high rebound thanks to its double-sided carbon, making it the most powerful board ever. The highly buoyant "PARTY PLATTER" and the ultra-lightweight "DOUBLE DART" are a perfect match, and it's clear to see them running over the waves at incredible speed and creating effortless action! We have a small quantity of the previously sold-out 5'4" "PARTY PLATTER" DOUBLE DART in stock! Even in small conditions that would normally make you go home without even going in the water, you can easily catch more waves, and even in waves with almost no shoulder and only able to go straight sideways, the surfboard will move around nimbly! The PARTY PLATTER model, a favorite of competitor Cole Hashemand and staff member Ryuji, is highly recommended for full gear for the upcoming winter season and for small conditions!

Hello, I'm Kohei, a staff member. For those who have been waiting for this announcement! We apologize for the long wait! All of the newly arrived PLACEBO Surfboard models are now available for purchase from the Love Surf web store! PLACEBO Surfboards, a sister brand of LOST Surfboards, is a special surfboard that can only be purchased in Japan, designed by MAYEHM, who has won the WSL Shaper's Ranking for two consecutive years, for Japanese waves and Japanese surfers. Polyester surfboards are known for their unparalleled strength and durability, the fact that they will stay in great condition for a long time without discoloring or fading in the sun, and their high resale value. However, the reason they are so popular with so many surfers is because of the excellent ride feel (flex) of the MAYHEM-designed models and the one-of-a-kind PLACEBO materials FLEXLITE-ULTIMATE6 and DURA-FLEX, which only those who have ridden one will understand! [ap_show_item 349324] [ap_show_item 349222] [ap_show_item 349231] [ap_show_item 349427] [ap_show_item 349457] The various models and sizes that have arrived this time were produced for customers who want to ride over the New Year holidays, and with a few exceptions, only small quantities have arrived! If you miss out on the current stock boards, the next shipment will be after next spring, so don't miss out!

Learn moreCan you ride an EPS board in a strong wind? On November 7th, Kei Kobayashi will be appearing at Kamogawa Marquis in Chiba Minami!!
On November 7th, Kei Kobayashi will be appearing at Kamogawa Marquis in Chiba Minami!! Recently, Nishii filmed Kei Kobayashi at Kamogawa Marquis in southern Chiba Prefecture, where he came to practice surfing for his JPSA/S League Grand Champion title. Despite incredibly strong winds that threatened to blow away cameras and tripods, Kei Kobayashi surfed on an EPS board, which is known to be weak in strong winds. The boat he was using was a Lost Lightspeed, but it seemed as if the wind was really that strong. Kei Kobayashi didn't seem to be affected by the wind at all, taking off super quickly and cutting through the waves at high speeds. He turned heads in the water, creating a spray on the rip. After about two hours of surfing, he immediately drove to Narita Airport and headed to the WSL QS5000 event in Taiwan. Nishii filmed the entire experience, so please take a look. https://youtu.be/IFG4e4o2d2k

We have a limited number of PLACEBO 6'6" "RE-LOADED" stockboards back in stock! The RE-LOADED PLACEBO meets the needs of a wide range of surfers, including those returning to surfing after a long break, those who are not satisfied with longboards and are thinking of switching to shortboards, those looking for their first board when starting surfing, and those whose home spot is always crowded and can't catch the waves they want. It is a long-life surfboard that far exceeds the strength and durability of POLYESTER surfboards, does not discolor in the sun, and keeps its beautiful condition for a long time. Another major benefit is that it is dramatically lighter than other surfboards! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68Q-Yb07a44&list=TLGGfTAKLPJyrFkxNTExMjAyNA The long-selling PLACEBO "RE-LOADED" model has captivated many surfers since its release with its unparalleled paddling and take-off performance and maneuverability that is unimaginable for a board of this size, and continues to sell well! [ap_show_item 349231] This happens every time, but once it's sold out we get a lot of inquiries like "Do you have any in stock?" and "When will it be restocked?", but once the stock we have this time is gone, there is no guarantee when the next shipment will arrive! Get your hands on PLACEBO "RE-LOADED" before it sells out and enjoy your surfing life! For a description of the "RE-LOADED" model, click here!

We received a request for studio photography from Toyota Motor Corporation, a global company! The other day, at the request of Toyota Motor Corporation, Nishii brought his beloved Hiace to a stadium in Tokyo for a photo shoot. The company wanted to introduce people who drive customized Toyota Hiaces, and to showcase Nishii's Hiace, which he uses specifically for surfing, so he responded to the request and filmed with a group of professional photographers. The filming was done by a photography team that also works on photography for Toyota Times and other publications. Take a look at what happened behind the scenes. https://youtu.be/Q-fzXuWyuZo The main story is here! https://youtu.be/I5XC2_kvFN4?feature=shared
Learn moreMust see! New YouTube video released! We went to a new wave pool in California!
While Nishii was in California last month, he went with his kids to the newly opened wave pool, Palm Springs Surf Club. This wave pool is located in a place called Palm Springs, about a two-hour drive inland from Los Angeles and San Clemente. Because it's inland, the temperature is higher than in Los Angeles or San Clemente, and it's a wave pool located in the desert. Nishii explains the wave quality, fees, system, and facilities of this new wave pool, which have not yet been introduced in detail in Japan, so please take a look. It was a lot of fun and the waves were great! https://youtu.be/pB6DDnk5F64?feature=shared
