v.Bowls

The Lovemachine v.Bowls, masterfully crafted by renowned shaper Ryan Lovelace, stands out in the realm of surfboards as a transformative design that caters specifically to those seeking an intricate connection with their surfing experience. This board features a distinctive widepoint-back silhouette complemented by a prolonged front end, creating a harmonious balance that delivers exceptional stability and maneuverability. The innovative foil design places all the volume strategically between the feet, allowing for an exhilarating sense of looseness while offering a unique, ball-bearing-like roll off the tail. This characteristic makes the v.Bowls particularly adept at harnessing the speed of trim, especially on pockety waves, making it a favorite among advanced surfers who appreciate its versatility.

Surfers who connect with the v.Bowls will often find that it transforms their approach, pushing them to adopt a more relaxed stance and allowing for fluid movements through turns. The parallel and foiled rails are a testament to the board's engineered precision, inviting riders to engage their hips, knees, and ankles in ways that create a flowing synergy with the wave. Rather than treating the v.Bowls like a traditional shortboard that requires aggressive pumping, riders are encouraged to embrace a more subtle and rhythmic style—fostering a deeper, more enjoyable surf experience. Measuring options such as 7'6" x 21 1/4" and 8' x 22" further cater to varying preferences and skill levels, with the option for custom designs to suit individual specifications. For those looking to elevate their surfing into a new realm of creativity, the Lovemachine v.Bowls is an indispensable addition to any quiver.
