Surfboard Lost Rad Ripper Carbon Wrap

The surfboard Lost RAD RIPPER is the latest in the “Post Modern Retro” collection.  A direct spin off from the Retro Ripper, but scaled for small, sub-par, every day surfing.

Starting with the Retro Ripper, Matt Biolos lowered the entry rocker a bit (for fast paddle, early entry, easy glide and quickness out the gate), and replaced the speed controlling round tail with a wide, planing squash tail.  Lots of lift and surface area for small surf.  As a child of ‘80’s surfing, Matt always been enamored by the ease of use from that era’s performance short boards.  The RAD RIPPER retains a noticeably healthy amount of tail rocker, cut through by an aggressive double concave, adding even more lift and squirt under the rear foot.

Super-fast, forgiving, user friendly retro fun, featuring modern updates and improvements, suitable for almost anyone.

Highlighted features include:

•  Flat, stable deck, with steep, low apex, tucked soft rails.

•  Slight vee in nose (to free up the low rocker) into a shallow single  concave, into a deep double concave vee, for both speed andcontrol.

•  Wide, stable squash tail, glides across anything, and holds speed through turns, even in small summer slop.

•  Forward thickness flow, with wedged “beak” nose, for drive and paddle -ability.

Construction CWT Carbon Wrap Tecnology:

The Carbon Wrap technology makes light, fast, responsive and robust boards. The stringer has been replaced by carbon straps in the EPS core. The straps start on the nose to the sude of the hull and finish on the tail. They create flex which provides speed and drive. The board is then laminated with epoxy resin and bi axial fiberglass.

Pukas surfboards are made in the Olatu factory, in the Basque country. Olatu owns the brand Pukas and builds for two big ones: Lost and Al Merrick. Polyurethane foam core, Silmar polyester resin and Hexcel fiberglass. Great finishing and exceptional expertise.
