I received a question asking, "How do you calculate the CL value?"
I will explain it in this blog.

Nishii and MAYHEM use the digital surfboard design software AKU, owned by LOST Surfboards, to cut blanks (forms) called "AKU."

You can design everything from the board outline and concave, rails to the rocker curve of the board.

Open the "master file" of each model created by MAYHEM.
Enter the length, thickness and width.

This AKU software function displays the CL value.
The liters written is the cl value, and for some reason it also calculates how many bottles of beer it is.
To access the "master files" of each model created by MAYHEM,
Only a limited number of people involved with LOST are allowed to use it.

The file data for each model is updated by LOST Mayhem, so
There may be some slight discrepancies in the figures depending on the production schedule, but it is not a big difference.

You may want a different model with the same CL value, or with 1 CL less, or 0.5 less,
If you tell us your wishes, Nishii will use the AKU software to create a design that meets your needs.
We can suggest board sizes to suit your desired model.
