Every surfboard tells a different story once it hits the water, and there’s no better way to tell that story than putting shapes to test. In this episode of What Should I Ride, Iker @fl0wm4st3r,will try three very different Lost Surfboards to see which one suits him best.
We lined up three models, each with its own identity and approach to performance:
Across the session, we wanted to see how these boards stacked up against each other: how the Pisces carried speed and flow, how the Rad Ripper balanced looseness with control, and how the Driver 3.0 delivered in terms of pure high-performance surfing. With Iker’s ability to adapt and translate the boards’ personalities into smooth lines, powerful turns, and playful moments, this test session became the perfect opportunity to explore what makes each board special, and which surfer each shape might suit best.
This post goes from design breakdowns to in-water impressions, giving you the insight you need to understand these Lost Surfboards not just as shapes, but as tools to unlock new sides of your surfing.
When it comes to performance and innovation, Lost Surfboards continues to push the boundaries of modern board design. Each shape in this lineup reflects a deep understanding of speed, flow, and responsiveness, tuned to different styles of waves and surfers. Below, we break down three of Lost’s most distinctive models, exploring how subtle changes in outline, rocker, and foil translate into unique sensations underfoot and in the water.
The Pisces is all about freedom, speed, and that effortless glide surfers chase when conditions call for fun. With its compact outline and fuller nose, it carries speed with ease, making smaller and weaker waves come alive under your feet. The wider template helps you generate drive from the first pump, while the combo setup amplifies flow and keeps turns smooth and stylish. Despite its playful fish DNA, the Pisces isn’t limited, it has just enough performance edge in the rails and bottom contours to respond when you want to push harder. For surfers who want a board that feels lively, skatey, and fluid, the Pisces delivers an experience that’s pure fun.
The Rad Ripper is a modern evolution of a retro-inspired board, blending throwback speed and looseness with updated performance elements. Its outline is sleek yet forgiving, with extra foam under the chest for easy paddling and fast entry into waves. The Black Sheep Tech construction takes things further, lighter, stronger, and more responsive, it adds a springy, energetic feel that amplifies every carve and snap. At 5’10” with just over 31 liters, it strikes a sweet spot for surfers who want stability without sacrificing reactivity. The Rad Ripper thrives in everyday conditions, offering plenty of drive down the line and explosive release off the lip. If you’re after a board that feels fast, loose, and built for progression while keeping things fun, this is the one.
The Driver 3.0 is Lost’s flagship high-performance shortboard, a board shaped for precision, control, and trust in critical moments. With its refined rocker and narrower template, it feels sharp and reactive, ready to handle steep drops, tight pockets, and powerful turns. The thinner rails allow for clean engagement, letting you carve with authority while still releasing smoothly when you want to push above the lip. At 6’1” with 31 liters of volume, it offers enough foam to paddle efficiently while keeping the performance-oriented sensitivity that experienced surfers demand. The Driver 3.0 shines when the waves get serious, making it a go-to choice for surfers who want a board that responds instantly and rewards commitment.
When things get serious, I’d grab the Driver 3.0 in PU. It feels really dialed in when the waves have power or shape, super responsive and trustworthy. It’s the kind of board that gives you confidence to push harder, both on those heavier days at home and on any trip where you know the surf is going to deliver.
My favorite has to be the Rad Ripper in Blacksheep construction. It’s just pure fun, fast, lively, and super responsive. It works from small to a bit overhead, as long as it’s clean and there’s no wind. It’s got that mix of speed and looseness that makes every wave feel playful, no matter the spot.

I’d surf the Pisces at Zarautz or any beachbreak on an average day, it’s built for that. The Rad Ripper would be my pick for those glassy, clean sessions, from small runners to slightly overhead peelers, pointbreak or beachbreak doesn’t matter, such as a glassy small morning in Hossegor. And the Driver 3.0 would come out when our coast lights up and waves get pumpig or for a trip somewhere with solid, proper waves, either for Mundaka, Pumping Hossegor or for a solid Indo trip this board would be my go to.
No question, the Driver 3.0. It’s not a cruiser, it’s a weapon. You’ve gotta be on your game or it’ll let you know. But when you’re in sync with it, it feels insane, fast, precise, and super sharp. That board keeps you honest.
Ridden as a thruster on the Driver 3.0, these fins felt solid, fast, and locked-in, perfect for pushing hard through turns and keeping control when it gets critical. Switched to quad on the Pisces, they open up completely: more speed, more freedom, maybe too much for that specific day. - Iker
Tested as a quad on the Rad Ripper, these fins felt smooth, flowing and old-school. Not as aggressive as the Mayhems, but they make you surf rounder, cleaner, more connected to the wave. I would say that these fins are best for clean, powerful walls and classic rail surfing. - Iker
