The 6'8 Lost MR x Mayhem California Mid is a Lost x Mark Richards collaboration shaped by Matt "Mayhem" Biolos. It is a mid-length version of the California Twin, made at the request of MR's customers in Australia and the US who wanted a longer board. Fins are not included.
CA Twin Glide in a Longer Board
The California Mid is 4 to 6 inches longer than the CA Twin in the smaller sizes and 8 to 12 inches longer in the larger ones. Stretching the outline let the tail be pulled in slightly, which widens the sweet spot for standing and turning. It keeps MR's signature winged swallow tail, a single concave into double concave through the fins, a flat deck, soft rails and foiled nose and tail, with low overall rocker for speed and glide and curvier rail-line rocker for turning.
