WHIPLASH X TAJ:Using the classic “Whiplash” model as a starting point, this board has now become the most refined and streamlined design in our line. Based of of TBs winning board from the 2012 Quiksilver Pro (Snapper Rocks) it is relatively low volume board , with continuous rocker (to fit where ever TB wants to go on the wave) and deep concaves (for lift and the speed to get there ). A relaxed central rocker maintains speed and carry through the flats, while hyper-extended tail kick in the last 16” and a moderately lifted nose keep the board free, loose and responsive. The outline also has an aggressive, continuous curve , cutting out all the unneeded surface area, thus no hip or bump in front of the fins that most of our boards feature. The nose, while not as needle or narrow as

in the past, is still pulled enough to not get in the way of TBs fast and critical, tight radius turns. Although not for everyone, this board is

relatively easy to ride and is best for younger and fit surfers who are above average, have no problem creating their own speed, and surf

regularly in punchy beach or decent quality point breaks and want to surf as critical and radical as possible.

THE TAJ BURROW COLLECTION:Designed specifically with input and feedback from world tour veteran and high performance surfing icon, Taj Burrow. This collaboration/collection stems from the work done to satisfy TBs needs for his trademark brand of razor sharp and explosive, cutting edge competitive and free surfing. With two World Tour wins (Snapper Rocks and Steamer Lane) in our first full season (2012) of working together, the results more than speak for themselves

THE BEACH BUGGY…BY TAJ:Derived from the Whiplash-TB. The TB-Stepdown is more of an “every-mans” high performance shortboard. Used by many WT and Qualifying Series competitors, because it works equally well in small junk surf. Featuring the Same WL-TB,

hyper extended tail rocker (for tight radius arcs off the back foot) but a significantly more relaxed entry rocker, which

combined with a wider nose allows for more drive and forward momentum , and stability, with a bigger landing platform from

reverse and tweaked airs. A wider hip and tail block is added to the outline in the tail for more lift at low speeds, but the tail width

at 12” is relatively the same as the WL- TB. This allows for superior precision and control than most al other “grovel” boards. With the

centerline and rail volume is carried farther into the rails….and out to nose and tail the TB-stepdown is designed to be ridden 1-2” shorter than

the WLashTB. In the right size, this is a HP shortboard that can be ridden and enjoyed by most surfers of average to above average ability…not just for

skinny kids and pros.

SUB-SCORCHER IIA fresh twist to the extremely popular Sub Scorcher. I started making squash tail versions of this one just for friends and a lot of WQS warrior/team riders, and it then gained popularity among the So- Cal custom order crew simply by word of mouth. The premise is simple: We removed all off the Sub-Scorchers trademark ¼”vee from the last 6” of the tail (we increasing the rocker about 1/8” and lowering the rail-line 1/8”). This loosens up the board, to better allow a more vertical and in the pocket attack. At the same time to counter any possible loss of drive we straightened the outline with a touch wider nose. We have played with a myriad of tail shapes. DW-Swallow: The straight lines of the tails adds drive and the swallow adds bite in turns. Diamond: Julian’s choice for more precision turning on his 5’7” 19.25” 2.32” and even a “Butt” tail for Kolohe’s 5’6” 19.50 2.32”. Overwhelmingly positive feedback from the two above mentioned surfers was the major inspiration in releasing this latest incarnation of the Sub-Scorcher. The overall volume is similar to the original, but the thickness flow has been held further forward to allow it to be ridden very short. All these subtle changes ad up make to a board that features extremely effective use of rocker , foil and rail line in a small package. In spite of the Pros being so involved in the development of this design, it is actually a great “everyman’s” small to average wave short-board, with a relatively pulled in/pointed nose, in place of full nose hybrid or traditional fish type design.

Pelagic

THE PELAGICAfter four years of tweaking and testing this most radical of fish designs we are proud to finally announce its release. Pelagic species are known as “The fastest, most stream lined and agile of all open ocean fish”. With a lifetime of snowboarding, I have always been intrigued with the concept of side cut outline as applied to surfboards. Side cuts in surfboard outlines are not new. The concept has been dabbled with for decades. In the spring of 2008, I saw an old “Bill Caster” surfboard (with a particularly interesting version of side cut) hanging on a wall at Heritage Surf shop, in New Jersey. It immediately caught my attn. I returned home and begin to play with curves and come up with my first prototype. In surfboards, everything is balance. Curvy rockers need to balance with straighter outlines and curvy outlines need flatter rockers. These principles became very apparent in the development of the Pelagic. Beginning with a fairly standard RNF template, we added a point at 12” from the tail and carved a reverse, side-cut, outline from there forward, into the wide point just above center. This effectively creates a reversed curve outline between the riders stance. To balance the negative outline curve, we have added a tremendous amount of rail rocker through the center of the board. The final component is a very low, straight and fast centerline rocker, which cuts a massively deep concave through the rail rocker.-A low centerline rocker paddles, glides and drives down the line. -A deep concave (a result of the extreme rail rocker) provides lift, incredible speed and planes easily at low speeds.- A curvy rail rocker keeps it very loose and easy to turn.- A wide tail, with angled “super” swallow, adds some bite and feels positive behind your rear foot in carves and cut backs. All of this works together to give the Pelagic performance characteristics like a well tuned snowboard on groomed corduroy. The Pelagic loves to be surfed on the rail and initiates turns from the center of the board, like a pivot point straight down your center of stance. When putting this board on a rail, the generous rail rocker allows very tight radius arcs up the face, or off the top, while the side cut in the outline “locks” into the face, or lip, giving a precise, slicing…sensation. Carving in bowling sections and fin free lip turns feel more positive and possible than you would imagine on a “fish” type surfboard design. Primarily developed as a quad fin, but is equally effective as a thruster.

THE LAY Z BOY: (Part one of the Domesticated Series)Both a continuation and break away from the Plank/Bottom Feeder genre of alternative, fun yet performance minded, surfboards. The LayZboy takes these high volume/low rocker and neutral bottom curves small wave surfboard designs to a wider range of waves and a more versatile and diverse playing field. Using an elliptical , “double ender” influenced outline, the LayZboy is inspired by the boards ridden by guys like Wayne Lynch and Michael Peterson in the 1970’s…as well as Dave Parmenter in the 80’s and 90’s . These elliptical, continuous curve, outlines combined with our proven rocker and bottom curves from the Bottom Feeder and Plank series, create a board that has a very open and forgiving sweet spot (as far as foot placement goes) and can be ridden in waves from knee high to well over head with ease. Because of the narrow hipped, continuous curve, elliptical outlines, you can surf this with a centered stance for down the line 70’s inspired speed runs, down carves and cutbacks…. or step back on the tail and go vertical off the bottom and in the pocket. The bottom contours (mostly flat rail to rail, with rolled, soft edges and a spiral vee under the rear foot) neutralize the high volume and free the board up, making it easy to push and permeate the rail deep and perpendicular into the face of waves…..rather than skate flat on top of the water. Paddling? What do you expect….like a Cadillac.

THE DOMESTICATED SERIES:It happens to most of us. We spend our younger years rallying against anything that stands in front of us, running rampant and causing chaos. Surf all day, rage all night and to hell with the consequences. But then society and, to some degree, conformity grab hold and tame our wild ways. Responsibilities rear and priorities pile up. Water time drops down, waist sizes inch up and life settles in. When you do get in the water, the last thing you need is more work, more grief and difficulty. Precious time in the brine should be fun and easy. It shouldn’t add to lifes stresses and struggles. To help make every hard earned and precious session a success, we bring you the “Domesticated Series”: Generous volume boards designed for having a good time… in your free time, and free you from the drudgery of every day dealings. Minimalistic curves and design elements that allow you to capitalize on and control that extra volume to your advantage, both in the line up, and most importantly, on the wave….translating into higher waves counts without sacrificing surfing performance on those waves. That’s what The Domestic Series is all about ...good times, fun and easy.

THE COUCH POTATO: (Part dues in The Domesticated Series) Designed in conjunction with the LayZboy, The Couch Potato in the extreme small wave version of the same general concept. It is wider, shorter, with a flatter rocker and a more parallel, yet continuously curving, outline than its big brother. Designed specifically a small wave surfboard, The Couch Potato (CP) is essentially a grovel version of the LayZboy, with a noticeably wider nose , with less entry rocker and a fuller forward foil, combined with a slightly wider tail. The outline and rocker combine for a board that is crazy fast , yet still controllable and maneu-verable, in gutless surf. A waist high weapon that, like the LayZboy, can be surfed equally effective from both a centered stance or off the tail. Recommend to be ridden 2” shorter than the LayZBoy or the same size as Plank or Bottom Feeder.

V2-STUB: Part three of The Domesticated SeriesA wider, thicker, flatter, fatter, fuller, faster, floatier, funner, freakishly fantastic prodgetic-ly paddling stepdown version of the V2Rocket. The nose is flat, full and wide, the Rocker is lower overall and volume is generously distributed further into the rails and farther out to the nose and tail; So ride it a couple inches shorter, and a good ½ wider, than a Rocket or V2 to get that great “Rocket” feeling in even smaller, more crowded junky waves. Shown here in "E-Technologies" EPS and SuperSap Epoxy, with mosaic bamboo inlay deck and resin tint bottom. All V2 Stubs are designed with 5 fin options.

The Rocket V2 has a bit less tail rocker, with less concave through he fins which creates a faster rail line under foot than the original Rocket. I actually deepened the concave out of the tail as well. The soft wing helps retain of the quick redirection off the top and bottom.Overall a easier board to ride for an average surfer in sub par waves. it has more down the line drive and a bit less skateboard kick tail feel.The Rocket was one of the most popular boards around the world in the last 5 years...one of the most well known and knocked off surfboard models in recent memory. It obviously has merit and worked well for thousands of surfers, but there is always room for improvement. I used the feedback from the average joe to update and refine what was not broken.The original Rocket will always be available form us as well. This doesn't replace the Rocket, it compliments it. For details, check out Lostsurfboards.net

The Mini Driver a short, fast (flat rockered) little five fin tube rider! something really, really fast that can take off extremely deep and pump through tubes from way back. A screaming fast low nose rocker with a forward placed outline, both attributes give tons of drive. We then rounded off the tail creating a very clean and elliptical outline that we expected would move free and easy inside the tube... The Mini Driver performed as hoped! For details, check out Lostsurfboards.net

The Sub Blaster a blast from the past. Spawning from the “Flashback” model of 2010, it features the Flashbacks rocker, foil, volume and dimen-sions smashed together with the Sub Scorchers hugely popular outline. The 1980’s influenced bottom, featuring low rocker, a slight vee throughout, allows you to ride much more volume than you normally would (making waves easy to catch and connecting slow sections a breeze) and still be able to get the board on a rail. Even though its thick, the squash tail is a perfect summer time toy and I also made a round pin version that opens the design up to waves well overhead and even tubes. Comes standard as a 5 fin convertible set up. Add 1-2" in length and keep other dims the same for Round Pins. For details, check out Lostsurfboards.net

The Bottom Feeder a board designed for riding the smallest wave possible. A board that feeds and thrives off the bottom end of the wave spectrum. It allows aggressive direction changes in tiny surf without losing speed. It comes as a 5 fin convertible. I prefer it with future fin boxes and fiberglass “Controller” fins.

The Driver was developed when a couple of the bigger, more powerful yet still new school, surfers on tour came looking for something special to use in the Southern California contest season. The design concept wasn’t new, but the resulting board is. It’s unlike any other board in our line and is not only being quickly adopted by top team riders pros looking for something new, but we honestly feel that the Driver is the board that can get us all back onto a modern HP thruster short board. Recommended to be ridden close to typical short board dims, but know that the volume will be higher than typical due to the design. For details, check out Lostsurfboards.net

The Sub Driver features the Sub Scorchers outline placed onto the Drivers rocker, bottom, foil and rails. We then sized it just between the Sub Scorcher and the Driver more nose rocker and less tail rocker (with no vee) than the Sub Scorcher. This is a great all around small to mid-sized wave board for both average and exceptional surfers. The most popular shortboard model of 2012. For details, check out Lostsurfboards.net
