Black Sheep Epoxy Carbon Construction
Lost's Black Sheep epoxy carbon construction is designed to give the board a light and energetic feel underfoot. The epoxy build and carbon reinforcement help create a responsive ride that suits surfers looking for quick acceleration and a lively response through turns.
Thruster vs. Quad Setup
Running the board as a thruster generally gives it a more controlled and predictable feel, with dependable hold and a familiar response through tighter turns.
Switching to a quad generally increases down-the-line speed and drive, making it a useful option when you want the board to carry more speed through softer or more open sections.
