Description

The Lost Surfboards RNF 96 (Round Nose Fish) is in our opinion one of the greatest game changing boards of recent times. Its part Fish, part hybrid, part shortboard…but most importantly its a huge amount of fun to surf.
The RNF 96 is based on the original version from 1996, hence the name, Matt Biolos has taken that board and tweaked and updated to give it more performance without sacrificing any of features that made it such a smash hit back in the day. The most obvious feature is the pulled in tail, this narrow tail with slight hip created a board that would execute much tighter turns whilst still carrying the speed. The single to double concave creates lift and therefore speed, the board paddles so well even in poor conditions to ensure you can compete in our ever more crowded line ups. The RNF 96 is the small to medium wave board you’ve been looking for, speedy, rail to rail surfing in a wide variety of conditions.
The fin set up is a thruster, you can of course surf it as a standard thruster, it works ok especially in better waves but the board is really designed to be surfed as a 2 + 1, the FCS II MR twin + 1 set is the go too fin to get the most out of the board.
Who is this board for? I hear you ask. Well, anyone who has become addicted to the speed and freedom of twin fin surfing and wants to take this feeling, with more control and stability, into better conditions. Or if you want a lightning-fast hybrid surfboard that will do anything in standard day to day surf then this is for you. Size at your standard volume you will fall in love with this little board. Minimalist logos finish the board beautifully!
