Learn moreHey everyone, are you enjoying some good waves? Today, we'll be introducing a model that can compete with the young surfers around you even in crowded spots and catch a lot of waves!
Do you feel like the number of surfers has been increasing since last year? In fact, if you look at the ocean or the wave information, you can clearly see that there are more surfers at the spots than before. Some people who surf at crowded spots may not be able to catch any decent waves, and may end up going home feeling stressed after a fun surfing experience. This time, we'll introduce you to a model that will help you stand out from the other surfers and catch waves even at spots that are super crowded and causing panic! LOST's first mid-length board, "SMOOTH OPERATOR," was chosen by professional surfer Arashi Murata's father on YouTube to help him get back into surfing, and it has become popular again! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nmw77C2soA0 The SMOOTH OPRATOR was originally designed by MAYHEM so that he could enjoy surfing with his children even in small spots where the shoulders were loose and it was difficult to get a grip on the board.As you can see, it is MAYHEM's favorite model and he uses it even in the big waves of Indonesia. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9_FJNX4qUU There are a variety of fin settings available, so you can choose one based on the wave conditions and your preferences that day. It doesn't require much paddling strength, so even women with weaker strength or those who aren't used to paddling can ride the waves without getting tired! For a description of the "SMOOTH OPERATOR" model, please click here! MAYHEM was surprised by the crowded Shonan sea, and created the SHONAN WARRIOR, which allows you to catch waves at speeds that rival professional surfers and fast-paddled kid surfers, even at crowded small wave beach breaks, for performance surfing! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jI61zaABLs4 Just looking at the voluminous outline of the SHONAN WARRIOR, you can imagine that it paddles incredibly fast, but the secret to its speed actually lies in its bottom action! The bottom area has a double concave babel bottom shape, so when you start paddling the surfboard rises up like a hovercraft and moves forward with increasing speed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aq8InaCoMt4&list=TLGGE_eGtv04cF0xNjEwMjAyMQ And even after taking off faster than anyone else, the surfboard continues to float and move, so it is less likely to encounter resistance in the water and you can perform actions with lightness that you would never imagine from its voluminous outline. Recommended for those who want high-performance surfing in small conditions, as this thick, shatter-resistant board is hard to break! For a model description of "SHONAN WARRIOR", please click here! Among Love Surf's many products, the PLAZEBO "RE-LOADED" has the best paddle and takeoff performance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__2tfb2YJrI The overwhelming length, width, thickness and volume create a stable paddle and a fast take-off, so you can catch the wave faster than anyone else on a shortboard, even in tough waves! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYWgQ7PGXSI&list=TLGGvad4P9JSytMxNjEwMjAyMQ&t=4s This can be said of all PLACEBO models, but they are very light and have more buoyancy than regular polyester surfboards, so you can paddle very fast! Furthermore, it bends flexibly and rebounds firmly, so even those who are weak or who are not yet able to bend the surfboard properly can easily feel the high rebound. Therefore, the ``RE-LOADED'' is not just a big, immovable surfboard! For a description of the "RE-LOADED" model, click here! After all, it's very important to choose a surfboard that suits the wave conditions of the day, the surfer's level, and your needs, and has the right model with the right buoyancy! Love Surf always has 200 to 300 special surfboards created by MAYHEM, one of the world's leading shapers and surfboard designers, and our experienced staff are ready to meet the needs of a wide range of surfers. Love Surf has surfboards for those who want to improve their surfing, surfboards for those who want to enjoy surfing more easily, surfboards that are large enough to fit into deep waves, and surfboards that allow you to add action to your surfing even in small conditions that a standard shortboard won't fit! It would be a waste to waste your limited surfing time on a surfboard that is not in good condition. If you contact Love Surf, you can get the best surfing board and live the best surfing life!

Learn more"Reckless Isolation" is finally out! Everyone can watch and enjoy!
"Reckless isolation" Starring Kolohe Andino, Ian Crane, Luke Davis, Griffin and Crosby Colapinto A record of a month-long surf trip to Mentawai, Indonesia, in the midst of the 2020 pandemic. After a hugely successful multi-coast film tour, Reckless Isolation has finally been released by Red Bull TV. Now everyone can see and enjoy it. The brainchild of Kolohe Andino, who directed, produced, and edited the film with Jacob Vanderwerk, "Reckless Isolation" follows five San Clemente surfers (Kolohe, Ian Crane, Luke Davis, Griffin and Crosby Colapinto) on a journey around the Mentawai Islands over the course of a month in mid-2020. Early in the pandemic, Indonesia closed its borders to tourists, leaving the Mentawai Islands almost completely empty of surfers. Using local connections and considerable underhanded tactics, Kolohe and his crew were able to enter Indonesia, secure a charter boat, hire former Pat Lensmen Scotty Hammons and Nate Lawrence, and navigate the Mentawai, Indonesia's Disneyland of surfing, during peak season. The result was a cutting-edge, postmodern mix of "September Sessions" and "...Lost at Sea." Highlights include: Griffin's impossible tube at 1:00 PM; the slab section at 11:00 PM; Kolohe's broadcast denunciation at 3:00 PM; and the greenbush section at 3:30 PM. Enjoy! https://stabmag.com/stabcinema/watch-reckless-isolation-starring-kolohe-andino-ian-crane-luke-davis-and-griffin-and-crosby-colapinto/ Watch: Reckless Isolation, Starring Kolohe Andino, Ian Crane, Luke Davis, And Griffin and Crosby Colapinto
