This is how you can create a LOST/MAYHEM magic board that never fails!

P1090172

Today I tried surfing at Salt Creek.

The board used is a 5'9" F1-SUTB, which is my first board.

Clean is a clean overhead size.

The slightly wider squash tail has a shifted peak.

It matched well with the beach break.

If you go to the Lost Surfboard Shape Factory,

Taylor, who is in charge of machine cutting,

P1090204

Nishii had been longing for a custom-made POLYESTER jacket.

They machine cut the double straight stringer foam for me.

P1090203

First, use a pencil to mark the center line of the blank to match the templet.

P1090206

This is where you place it on the machine's bed, and this is a very important step.

P1090212

The blank is fixed to the bottom surface with several suction cups.

P1090209

Look at the red glowing dot.

P1090211

It's coming out of this machine on the ceiling.

P1090210

Use the laser point to center it.

P1090213

Unlike DSD machines, AKU machines have a bed that moves back and forth.

P1090214

This round cutter blade moves according to the programmed data.

P1090216

First, a cut is made vertically from the center of the board towards the rail.

P1090217

When you go to the rail side, the cutter blade goes down like this,

P1090219

The wooden stringer is hard, so when the cutter blade passes through this part,

It moves slowly and cuts cleanly.

P1090222

In this way, the rail shape is cut with incredible precision.

P1090224

When the deck surface is finished one side at a time from the center,

Cut the bottom surface from the center one side at a time to complete the process.

P1090233

Burrs like this will form on the nose, so

P1090231

Finally, remove the burrs with a saw and the cutting process is complete.

To use a machine to accurately cut the board,

Mayhem's delicate programming and Taylor's settings are very important.

Furthermore, each model at Lost is constantly updated based on rider feedback,

A digitally cut clone board of the Magic Board based on the Magic Board data.

Because they are delivered to you, every board is in good condition and there are no duds.
