...Lost Domestic Series

[rgruber]

There are some post floating around here and there but wanted to pick the collective brain about the ...Lost Domestic Series- Couch Potato, Lazy Boy and Bottom Feeder, mainly the first two.

How do they differ from one another as far as outline, bottom contours and foil go?

 

[donniedarko]

Ill have one soon... let you know then.
I posted pics of them and Mayhems description is spot on

 

[rgruber]

Do you recall which thread is that in? The search engine on the BB is less than stellar.

Couch Potato

Lazy Boy

What's the tail rocker like on the BF?

 

[Ifallalot]

Can we get Matt to explain the differences between the three? These look like the ifallalot signature series as Havoc said in one of the other threads.

estoy interesado

from what i read on matt's bog, he is preparing descriptions now. he's usually spot on so is probably making sure to make it detailed unlike some of the other companies out there.

You mean it'll be better than, "Mr. Hipster rolled through half-drunk on lite beer one day, took one of our secret blanks and reshaped it by using only a DeWalt drill with a paddle bit and dry humping it. This new model is called The Sucker"?

Couch Potato

Lazy Boy

lazy boy = hp bf

couch potato = sweet potato replacement

and now we can all rest easy <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/socrazy.gif" alt="" />

Not entirely correct. I'd go into detail but I'll leave it to Matt to articulate how/when he chooses...

My .02 on the Couch Potato (the board pictured is mine). I have ridden all kinds of boards in this genre...Sweet Potato, Plank, Ghostbuster, Simster etc. I am a kooky middle aged surfer who surfs bad east coast waves.

I have never surfed a board that is more fun in small waves. Paddles into crap surf like a funshape (sorry, a 5'5 does NOT catch waves like a longboard). But unlike the simmons-inspired boards, feels more like a traditional shortboard. I was in love with a Larmo Ghostbuster for some time, but I have to say this board is more fun.

Are those fins the reqular controlers or the Mayhem versions?? If the latter did they send it out with those? Thanks!

Matt posted the descriptions on his blog:

Any ideas on how to size the Lazy Boy? Usually don't love the looks of these super grovely boards but the Lazy Boy looks a little curvier and not as plank like.

 

[Ifallalot]

I think I am going to need a Lazy Boy

 

[choch]

+1.
matt rides a 6'

 

[greysuit]

Need a couch potato for the weak stuff over here.

Lazy Boy has a nice elliptical outline and is pleasing to the eye. That Couch Potato looks like a good answer for super crap surf. I wonder what the low end difference would be between the two? Where does the Bottom Feeder fit in here? Between the two?

 

[donniedarko]

Mine is at Hydrroflex getting lam'd now...
Going to order a Couch soon, they definitely are 2 different boards/shapes.
Still having a major love affair with my BF. Boys at Lost are claiming the LB is better on the top part of the wave. The Couch is stupid motivated I guess. Thats scary because my BF is super motivated too.

a board for the good days 4-6 feet socal.
