Micks Tape

The Micks Tape surfboard by Lost Surfboards is an exceptional creation born from the collaborative genius of Matt Biolos and Donald Brink, designed to meet the rigorous performance standards set by three-time world champion Mick Fanning. Measuring 5’3” and boasting a volume of 28.5 liters, this board is crafted as an asymmetrical marvel, specifically tailored for advanced surfing in varied conditions, including waves with diverse faces and dynamic energy pockets. The design embraces an ethos of maximizing efficiency, delivering power and agility while adhering to a compact format—effectively fusing maximum motor with minimum waste.

What sets the Micks Tape apart is its stance-specific design, which facilitates optimal leverage for both toe-side and heel-side maneuvers. This board encourages progressive surfing, enabling the rider to execute sharp turns and engage with the wave intelligently, regardless of skill level. For those who might not match the precision of Mick Fanning, the board’s reasonable dimensions allow for a comfortable fit into crowded lineups and average surf conditions. By balancing its smaller size with generous width and volume, surfers can enjoy improved floatation and stability, making it a valuable addition to any quiver where nimble performance is desired.

As a culmination of careful design and innovative shaping principles, the Micks Tape is not merely a replacement for traditional high-performance boards but serves as an essential complement that enhances versatility. Bridging the gap between expert craftsmanship and user-friendly functionality, this board is effectively a “Mixed Tape” of advanced surfboard technology, encouraging both seasoned surfers and the aspiring avid to dive into an exhilarating water experience.
