...Lost Driver 3.0 Round (RND)
Griffin Colapinto and his magic Driver 3.0 RND
· DRIVER 3.0 ROUND ·
The DRIVER 3.0 Rnd is essentially replicated directly from Griffins magic board, during that El Salvador event. The response and accolades from every gifted surfer in the Lost team (from vets like Kolohe Andino, Yago Dora and Ian Crane to young guns like Eli Hanniman, Crosby Cola and Cole Housmand) was so resoundingly positive, that Matt Biolos felt it was time to go public.
Simply stated, the DRIVER3.0 features slightly more tail rocker and a deeper double to single concave, through the rear half, than its predecessor, theDriver 2.0. The deck line in the tail is scooped out, with lower, boxy rails, to follow the bottom curve and slice seamlessly into the water.
More concave means more lift and more rail line rocker.
More lift means more speed.
More rail rocker, means more curve, for searing, tight radius turns.

Understanding the Driver 3.0 RND
Matt Biolos and the Lost team narrowed the hip, between the feet, adding grip and stability to the outline.The round tail is fairly wide and forgiving under the rear foot, but the last few inches pull in enough to add confidence and hold in hard pushing, pro level, pocket surfing.
To balance these design elements (added tail rocker, narrower hip,scooped out deck and hyper rail rocker) Matt has carried a bit more width in the forward outline and volume in the forward foil.This forward volume adds glide and a more responsive drive, off the front foot.
Which wave should you surf with a Driver 3.0 | Waves from just over waist high to way over head. It would fit perfectly with a cupped-out bowling wave; also with a bigger open-faced wave with power.
What about surfing skills? | If you are an intermediate, meaning decent, to a very skilled or advanced surfer, this board can be a great fit and you will have lot of fun with it. You will only now once you give it a chance.
