RAD RIPPER BLACKSHEEP

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

RAD RIPPER is the latest in Lost’s 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, Lost have 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 Matt Biolis is a child of 80s surfing, he’s always been enamored by the ease of use from that eras 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 the nose (to free up the low rocker) into a shallow singleconcave, into a deep double concave vee, for both speed and control.
• 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.

WARNING: Carbon Fiber surfboards can easily get hot! Theyre darkand like all things dark, they soak up the sun and heat. Take care of your board and do not leave it in the sun.
