Introducing the new machine following "DSD" and "AKU"! What's its name?

Introducing the new machine following "DSD" and "AKU"! Its name is "3DM" This yellow is "DSD" This red is "AKU" These are for those who are studying the latest CALIFORNIA surfboard information on this 24 blog, As you may already know, LOST owns two shape machines called "DSD" and "AKU." Next, we will introduce the latest shape machine we have developed. Epoxy Pro, the company that produces XTR, "Parallel Flex" with two wooden stringers lined up in parallel, Demand for stringerless products such as the XTR 3D CARBOLIC is growing rapidly, In order to accurately machine cut these blanks (forms), We have introduced a new machine called "3DM". The great thing about this machine is that it can be used with or without stringers, and no matter how many there are, The ability to cut blanks and the fact that we have not been able to share this until now. It is now possible to cut "DSD" and "AKU" data. wonderful!!! And what makes Mayhem happy is that the cut surface is the flattest. Apparently, this allows for smoothing of the shaping process more accurately and quickly.

Won the KLO U.S. Championship in the under 18 class!

Kolohe did it. He won the U.S. Championship in the under 18 class! What's more, he scored 10 points in the final! He got an 8.6 on the front and an 8.6 on the backside, for an additional 10 points. With less than a minute left, he took off on this wave and his riding was a historic combination. From a deep bottom turn, he makes a long airborne grab air in one turn and lands, then off the lip. It's a combination of moves: a double grab air, a slash at the top, and an air reverse in the close section. Kolohe is only 17 years old, but I think he's good enough to compete in the WCT. This ride deserves more than 10 points, right? Kelly is also interested in the winning board. This is a SUB-SCORCHER model and measures 5'10" x 18 7/8" x 2 1/4".

"ORCA" ready-made sizes have been decided! CL values ​​can now be calculated.

Starting today, the QUICKSILVER contest has begun at LOWERS. Kei is a hard-working player who plays a round at UPPER first thing in the morning before school. Apparently he's testing out his new board in preparation for tomorrow's competition. This is Sena, a 6-year-old boy who is Kei's junior, and his father, Tatsushi. I surfed today. The waves in the upper part were small, but a 2mm full suit was OK. The waves were long rideable. While observing the shapes in Mayhem's shaping room, We talked about various things. I was told about ORCA's ready-made sizes, and I was able to calculate the CL value. I got the data from Mayhem. Today I was shaping Julian Wilson and John John. LOST surfboards are also very popular in the USA, and the number of orders has exceeded last year's. Terry Singh, who is in charge of the airbrush, also seems to be very busy. Mayhem looked up at Blanks and saw that he had been in the Mentawai area for a few days. He seemed busy, saying he had to make up for the time he had lost in shape. The AKU machine cuts the blanks because It was a WHIPLASH XTR 3D CARBOLIC board from KYOSUKE, custom ordered from Japan. Please look forward to the finished product! We will post more details about ORCA ready-made sizes and CL values ​​on our blog at a later date.

"Sub-Scorcher" and "Sub-Driver" have the same outline.

The Sub-Scorcher and Sub-Driver have the same outline. For the rest, we just dropped in the driver itself. The design program used (AKU SHAPER) We were able to incorporate and subtract different elements from each other's boards. Sub-Driver, simply put Use the outline of Sub-Scorcher as it is, This board is designed to Driver specifications. So, the Sub-Driver has a slightly weaker tail rocker, There are more flat areas, but there is more nose rocker. Think of it as a SUB-SCORCHER with increased driving power, a characteristic of DRIVER. It has a lot more concave than the Sub-Scorcher. The added concave gives the board more lift as it starts to roll. It responds sharply and drives well even in small, boring waves, so you'll feel its performance very well. The shape of the rail is almost the same as the SUB-SCORCHER near the center, The nose and tail are thinner. Love Surf will have these products in stock from mid-August at the earliest, in reliable, genuine imported quality.

It will be up for auction, so don't miss it!

Here's a post-Golden Week surf report from Mr. K. Today I came to Marquis in Kamogawa. We started after 6 o'clock and there was no wind, but soon a strong north wind started blowing side-on. The swell is weak and the break is waist-high to belly-deep. The water temperature is dropping due to the southwest influence. It's crowded due to Golden Week. Here is a post-Golden Week surf report from Mr. T. Today, my senior colleague N took me to Hanagoshi Point. Early in the morning, the wind was weak and the waves were easy to ride, coming from the left side or waist-high. In the second half, the wind got a little stronger and the waves got worse, so we went back out. The waves weren't great so it wasn't crowded and the parking lot was empty. The water temperature is 3mm full suit and you can enter without boots. 〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓 "We expect the surfing to be crowded during Golden Week. Please be mindful of etiquette and enjoy surfing." "Every year during Golden Week, there are many cases of car break-ins, so we recommend taking proper security measures before going into the sea." 〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓〓 I received this rare surfboard from Mayhem. This is a specially designed board that Mayhem himself shaped for himself (obviously). The tail is asymmetrical and designed for a regular stance. The inside turn on the front side has a long rail, so drive If you turn the rail at the top, you will be on the short rail side, The board is easy to turn and it's also easy to turn on the backside. It's an interesting looking board design. The tail is asymmetrical, When you lean it against something, it doesn't stay straight, but ends up tilted like this. Mayhem surfs with the president of FCS in the US at a light break in Cabo, Mexico. This is a special board shaped to take on fin development trips. http://glycogen.jpn.com/ It will be put up for auction at this earthquake relief auction, so don't miss it!

Mayhem, who had been away on a trip, has returned...

This is a beach break called Strands. It avoids the southerly wind and is hollow, with wave quality similar to that of Niijima when the waves are good. Mayhem, who had been away on a trip, is back... As a guest of Kolohe, From Mayhem on a Mentawai board trip in Indonesia I received an email saying that I would be returning home earlier than planned. I was wondering why, Apparently he cut his head on a fin and the boat captain had to give him 18 stitches. Apparently, he was the only one to return home because he couldn't surf for a week until the stitches were removed. If you get injured on a board trip, you may or may not stay on the board depending on the remaining schedule. He had to choose whether to return home or not, and Mayhem chose to return home. Even if you are going back to your home country alone, you will need to travel from Mentawai to San Clemente. It took three days, so it must have been quite a challenge. We returned to Padang Port by boat, not by ship, and took 20 hours, connecting by boat, car, and plane. I also stayed overnight in a small hotel room at Singapore airport, and spent a few hours at Narita airport. Apparently he was waiting for a plane. It's before summer and we have a lot of board orders, Rather than being on a board and not being able to surf for a week. It seems he chose to come back early and get in shape. So Nishii captures Mayhem and immediately sets off for a meeting. He also gave us a detailed explanation of the SUB-DRIVER, so I will introduce it in tomorrow's blog.

Nishii suddenly went to CALIFORNIA to discuss the board.

Nishii came to California on short notice to discuss the board. After the earthquake, people stopped going to the beach, and many people went to places like Shonan. Many people are now unable to go north of Kashima or Iioka, Whether there are waves or not, Shonan is crowded with longboards and funboards. They will ride the wave to their advantage. I had refrained from surfing for a long time, I surf less than before, and my paddling strength has decreased. For the time being, I haven't been able to go as often as before because there is a risk of aftershocks. I've heard many customers talk about situations like this! So, We mainly focus on the waves of Shonan, whether they are slow waves, small waves, or crowded, so you can catch as many waves as you want. I wanted them to design a board that would take off very quickly. I quickly flew to America to consult with Mayhem. ◎The waves are chest-high at most, and you can ride consistently even at ankle-high to knee-high waves. ◎Long and thick retro style surfboards make it easy to catch waves even in very crowded situations. ◎Runs easily even in weak, choppy waves. ◎I don't need a lot of action, but I want to ride a lot of waves as part of my rehabilitation. ◎I want to have fun even in bad wind onshore or sideshore junky waves. ◎Even if your paddling strength is reduced when surfing, the board starts sliding quickly and you can ride without any strain. This concept means that even if the driving performance is somewhat reduced, Aiming for an even faster takeoff than the Conquest, it's all about having fun and riding the waves. He came to Mayhem to ask them to develop a board for Shonan (pseudonym) that he could ride a lot. (This photo shows POWERQUEST XTR 3D CARBOLIC) Stay tuned for future developments!
