What Makes Lost Mayhem Surfboards a Standout in the Surf Industry?

Lost Surfboards has carved its place in surf culture by consistently pushing the limits of design and performance. Since its founding by Matt Biolos ("Mayhem"), the brand has earned global respect from both professional surfers and everyday wave riders.

Whether you're surfing beach breaks in California or reef slabs in Indonesia, Lost boards are designed to elevate your ride with innovation, quality materials, and shaper expertise.

Crafted from Experience: Matt Biolos' Vision

Matt Biolos, co-founder and master shaper, brings decades of hands-on experience designing boards for elite athletes. His firsthand knowledge from watching his boards perform in real surf conditions ensures each model is fine-tuned for speed, flow, and versatility.

Find Your Perfect Volume

Lost surfboards come in a wide variety of volume ranges to match your experience, wave size, and surfing style. Whether you need a nimble shortboard with less foam for crisp turns, or extra liters for paddling power and stability, there's a volume to fit your needs:

• 25L–30L: Ideal for advanced riders seeking maximum performance and sensitivity.
• 30L–35L: For intermediates or lighter advanced surfers who want a blend of maneuverability and control.
• 35L–40L: Great for those looking for easy paddling and a balance between stability and agility.
• 40L–45L: Perfect for bigger surfers or those after a touch more float for catching waves in varied conditions.
• Over 45L: Built for maximum stability and easy wave-catching, making them an excellent option for beginners or anyone chasing effortless rides.

Choosing the right volume isn't just about numbers—it's about finding the board that feels lively, responsive, and right under your feet. If you're unsure, our experts are ready to help match you to your best fit.

Tail Shape Options to Match Your Surfing

When it comes to customizing your ride, the shape of your surfboard's tail makes a huge difference in how the board handles on the wave. Here are the classic tail shapes you can choose from, each offering its own flavor of performance:

• Pin Tail: Designed for maximum control and hold, especially in powerful, hollow waves. Go for the pin if you're charging steep faces or big barrels.
• Round Tail: The all-rounder's pick. Smooth and forgiving, round tails offer consistent grip through turns and work well across a range of conditions.
• Squash Tail: Want sharp, responsive turns? The squash tail delivers extra maneuverability, making it a favorite for high-performance surfing in everyday waves.
• Swallow Tail: With two points for better hold and lift, swallow tails make smaller, mushy surf feel punchier—great for generating speed and traction on softer days.

Each tail shape has its own strengths, so think about your local break and riding style to find the best match for your next board.

Which Lost Surfboard Model Is Right for You?

Choosing the right Lost board depends on your skill level, local wave type, and riding style. Each model is crafted with purpose.

Lost Mayhem Driver 3.0

A pro-level performance shortboard, the Driver 3.0 is ideal for intermediate to advanced surfers seeking maximum drive, control, and agility. This model is often seen under the feet of WSL competitors and is designed for tight arcs and vertical surfing.

Ideal Conditions & Wave Types

The Driver 3.0 performs best in punchy beach breaks and reef waves with a bit of power. Its rocker profile and rail line allow it to handle steep drops and fast sections.

Lost Puddle Jumper

The Puddle Jumper is one of Lost's most versatile and popular small-wave boards. With its fuller outline, wide nose, and deep concaves, it's a go-to for surfers wanting fun and speed in waist- to chest-high waves.

Everyday Surfer's Favorite

Perfect for beginners stepping down from a longboard or intermediates looking to maximize fun on smaller days. Easy paddling meets high-performance flow.

Lost RNF 96 (Round Nose Fish Redux)

A tribute to one of Lost's most iconic models, the RNF 96 combines retro flow with modern speed. This fish-style board blends rail-to-rail speed with smooth carving lines.

Twin Fin vs Quad Setup?

The RNF 96 works great as a twin for a looser, skatey feel. Add a trailer or go quad for more drive and hold when the waves turn on.

What Fin Box Systems Are Available for Surfboards?

Selecting the right fin box system can make a significant difference in how your board performs. The two main systems you'll find across most modern surfboards are:

• FCS II: Known for its tool-less install and quick fin changes, FCS II is popular among surfers seeking convenience and versatility at the beach.
• Futures: Designed for single-tab fins, the Futures system is praised for its strength and secure fit—ideal if you're chasing big waves or want peace of mind in heavy conditions.

Both systems offer a wide array of fin shapes, materials, and setups, allowing you to fine-tune your board's performance to match your style and the day's waves. Whether you prefer quick swaps between sessions or a rock-solid connection, there's a fin box solution to suit your needs.
