Learn moreThe CORK board C3 specification is a rare item, with only one of each model and size available.
C3 specification (CORK board) CORK-CARBON-COMPOSITE It was posted on the website today! http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/topics/new.html LOST "SUB DRIVER-JP" C3 specification LOST "V2-ROCKET" C3 specification LOST "RNF-EVOLUTION" C3 specification These are the three models! *Black carbon rail specification * Vacuum shrink glass method *2.1 oz EPS foam core *Cork deck *Hand print mark By combining these luxury parts, This is a rare surfboard that has been carefully and time-consumingly produced, and it has a great texture and a luxurious, high-end appearance. Above all, Nishii can confidently recommend this product because it uses cork. Its soft flex allows you to ride waves smoothly and easily gain speed. Also, since the cork itself has buoyancy, the board will have a slightly higher buoyancy than the CL value printed on it. I should also mention that paddling and takeoff are faster than with a POLY board. This is a rare item with only one of each model and size available. Don't miss this chance to take advantage of the longer than usual holiday period over the New Year period!

Learn moreLOST has finally released a DVD! This is a must-see!
Tonight I went to the LOST Christmas party. LOST surfboard, LOST Closing, LOST surf skating, etc. People who usually work Invited by MAYHEM, held at the Mayhem House in San Clemente It's a party. Crepe catering was provided, Beer, cocktails, champagne, wine, and more were served by President Mayhem. The Santa Claus-like person is MAYHEM's father. I worked in accounting 15 years ago when LOST was still small. There was a lottery and other events, which made the event even more exciting. The moment it was announced as a surprise that LOST would be released on DVD, there was a wave of joy. What kind of DVD is it? It's a DVD version of the WARD story with an hour of unreleased footage added. It's a four-hour epic. The DVD was already playing on the monitor, so I watched it, and the unreleased footage was amazing. LOST will be releasing a DVD for the first time in a long time! This is a must-see! It will be available in Japan within the year, so look forward to it!
Learn moreNew Lost "TAJ BARROW" model "BEACH BUGGY"!!!
New Lost "TAJ BARROW" model "BEACH BUGGY"!!! Lost will be announcing the 2013 model "BEACH BUGGY." This is a comparison of the design graphics on a PC of an AKU machine with the same size board, "BEACH BUGGY" and "WHIPLASH-TB". The four screenshots below are just a glimpse of the two models, but you can see the difference between MAYEHM's ideas and the visual board design. The yellow line is "BEACH BUGGY" and the black line is "WHIPLASH-TB". This comparison is between boards of the exact same size. However, please be aware that we do not recommend riding these two models together despite their size. This comparison is simply made to be the same size for comparison purposes. I recommend making it about 2 inches shorter, at least 1/4" wider, and the same thickness. This model is a shorter and wider version of Taji Burrow's "WHIPLASH-TB" model. This gives the board a gentle, subdued rocker curve, making it easy to ride. This means that it is easier to ride than the WHIPLASH-TB and is suitable for a wider range of levels. This is a new performance model that is also suitable for the wave conditions in Japan! Since this is a 2013 model, stock boards have yet to be produced, so stock is expected to arrive from March 2013.
Learn moreA favorite among WCT players! Highly praised by Nishii! "FU WAX" from Brazil
Nishii has encountered the most amazing wax in his 32 years of surfing. Most WCT players used to use S◎X WAX, but I've heard rumors that recently everyone is using this. However, even for WCT players, this wax is said to be difficult to obtain because it is made in Brazil. This wax became world famous when Kelly used it to perform that perfect 10-point air in one maneuver at the WCT competition in New York. In fact, it is difficult to obtain even in California, and is brought back from Brazil and sold privately for around $15. If people find out I have it, they'll ask me to paint it for them, so It's a valuable item that people say you shouldn't tell anyone you have! So, what is so different? It sticks to the surfboard like a suction cup, increasing the grip, so much so that you'll never want to use wax again. This wax is clearly different. It doesn't have that nasty sticky feeling that transfers to your hands and clothes like most waxes currently on the market that are supposed to give you good grip. Give it a try, it's performance is unmatched by any other wax. Anyone can improve their surfing and gain confidence with just this one product. Any brand of base wax can be used. We recommend using a hard wax. "Use FU WAX as a top coat, applying it thinner than usual." Just apply half the amount of the previous top coat and it will have a suction cup-like adhesive effect. You may want to apply a lot, but a thin layer is enough. The grip effect becomes even more pronounced when you're in the water, so while waiting for a wave, try placing your palm on the wax to make sure it doesn't slip, as you'll experience a suction cup-like grip effect. Compare it to boards used by people who have applied other waxes and the difference is clear. Furthermore, this FU WAX has a much longer grip than previous waxes. This shipment was imported from Brazil via California, which means there are a lot of air freight charges, so it may seem expensive. The retail price at Luvsurf is 1,050 yen per bottle. If you apply it thinly and properly, you can easily use it for more than five surfing trips on a shortboard, so if you think of it as improving your surfing for just 200 yen per application, it will seem like a bargain. Kelly really uses it too. How to choose FU WAX, which is softer than other waxes: *WARM in spring and seagull water temperatures *3mm full and 5mm full and boots are COOL *COLD is appropriate when the water temperature is about the same as when you are wearing gloves. Love Surf, which will probably be the first to sell it in Japan, will start selling it this weekend!

Luvsurf TV:LOST “F1-STUB” Koji Nishii Rider: Koji Nishii Board used: LOST MAYHEM 5'9" "F1-STUB" FILM: Hidekaze Suma EDIT: TABRIGADE FILM This is a riding video of the ARCTIC Color Form "F1-STUB" model. The F1-STUB model is currently the most popular of Mayhem's standard high-performance tri-fin boards. The single concave design on the bottom and gentle tail rocker are well integrated with the tail shape, making this a board that is highly maneuverable and responsive to the rider's intentions. It has the ability to run well even in thick, slow waves where the waves don't dig in very well. Especially, it is easy to perform TOP action and high point ride is not only for competition but also for other purposes. It is designed to be enjoyed during free surfing. If you are aiming to become a surfer who emphasizes vertical movement, you should definitely try this MAYHEM riders' board. Try out the "F1-STUB" model, which continues to evolve thanks to extensive feedback. [vimeo]https://vimeo.com/54263265[/vimeo]
Learn moreWhy? We will explain why we recommend "AUROLA FIN".
Why Love Surf? I will explain why I recommend "AUROLA FIN". When you purchase a LOST or Placebo surfboard, the following items are included: This is a genuine FCS GMB (G Matt Biolos) fin with the MAYHEM logo printed on it. This GMB fin falls into the large fin group, labeled "L" on the FCS fin size chart. Therefore, it is generally designed for large waves, and is best used in waves of overhead size or larger that require large drive turns. The fact that a large area is in the water also gives the board a sense of stability, so beginners are recommended to use this fin even in small waves, as it helps to prevent the board from wobbling when paddling or taking off. However, for intermediate level surfers who want to perfect and practice lip action or move the board more, the large "L" fins are too large and feel heavy and slow. Therefore, we recommend using fins with a smaller surface area than the included GMB fins. As for what kind of fins are best, I recommend the lightweight, high-performance ``AUROLA FIN'' fins that I will introduce below. Now, please take a look at the comparison photos of the AUROLA FIN series with GMB fins. Top right: CHARGER fins have a narrow base and a low height. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/item_detail/itemId,1002/ Bottom right: The TRIPLE RAZER fin has a slightly narrower base and a shorter height. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/item_detail/itemId,178/ Top right: BAMBOO's side fins have a narrow base and a low height. Bottom right: BAMBOO's center fin is a small fin with a very narrow base and a very low height. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/item_detail/itemId,697/ Top right: The side fins of the CARBON 5 have almost the same base, but are slightly lower in height. Bottom right: When used as a CARBON 5 QUAD set, the back fins have a very narrow base and are very short in height. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/item_detail/itemId,1657/ Top right: When used in the FLEX-FIVE QUAD set, the back fins have a narrow base, a low height, and are small. Bottom right: The FLEX-FIVE side fins have a slightly thinner base and are slightly lower in height. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/item_detail/itemId,696/ The 4.7 MFF side fins are The base is almost the same, but the height is slightly lower, the tip is shorter, and the center is narrower. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/item_detail/itemId,181/ The 4.5 MFF side fins are It has a very thin base, a low height, a very thin tip, and a slightly narrower center. http://www.luvsurf.co.jp/item_detail/itemId,180/ As you can see, no matter which fin is compared, it is smaller than the GMB, and there is a difference in the size of the fin area. The "AUROLA FIN" series is suitable for everyday waves in Japan, and just by changing the fins, * The board moves more easily *Easy board control *Improved technique sharpness Because of this effect, we recommend using the included GMB fins for larger waves. We recommend using the smaller ``AUROLA FIN'', which is more suitable for the wave conditions in Japan and the size of the waves you usually see. With the "AUROLA FIN" series, you can change the fins without any problems. Try installing AUROLA fins and improve the performance of your favorite surfboard.
