This design results in a board that blends Lost V3 Rocket design with the quickness, performance and visuals of a standard HPSB shortboard. Technically, Matt Biolos of Lost Surfboards added length and rocker to the nose, and pulled the forward outline in to more closely resemble a modern shortboard nose template. The tail has more pronounced, fluted wings and a more radical “Rocket” diamond at the end. The deeper wings add grip and control by reducing surface area. The flutes help the rail to permeate the surface, as well as reduce the rail volume, for more precise and surface permeating carving. The bottom still contains the V3’s relaxed centerline rocker, for glide and down the line drive, and a healthy amount of concave. The concave adds considerable lift, and creates a hyper curved rail rocker under the rear foot, allowing the surfer to turn freely and precisely when the board is rolled onto a rail. The Lost V3 Stealth offers high speed, wide tail glide for fat faced fun, combined with the ability for fast, vertical, precise pocket surfing...in even marginal conditions.

I have exactly the same feeling above the "Stealth". Had a V2 Rocket for years as my go-to board and bought the Stealth as a next step.
I felt that the V2 never disappointed me, could surf it in all type of condition. With the Stealth, it only exhales and flies when the waves get good and hollow.

So do have any recommendations for a board something in between V2/V3 and Stealth? Need a board between the puddle jumper and my bigger surf shortboard.

Thanks for the show and happy new year

@CompareSurfboards.com I have checked them out, both look great. Just a bit to much performance for my home break, which is often onshore and mushy. I have checked out "Pyzel, gremlin" and "Fourth, weekend rockstar"

Great to hear your experience, thanks for sharing Robin. Have you looked at the JS Blak Box 2? Or for something a little different, the Gary McNeill Entity?

My brother has the V3 Rockets. I went with the Stealth for that reason you highlight, the board lights up in better performance waves. It is now my go-to board, actually my only board I ride.

Could you do a review of the Van Der Waal traction pads? I’m a new surfer and wanted to see what your opinion is on that brand verses the thicker traction pads.

Picked one of these up a couple weeks ago. I'm an average surfer, and it's taken a three solid sessions to actually feel confident on it. I don't think it's as user friendly as other lost boards, but once you start to connect with it, you start to feel the pure possibilities on this board. And now i'm really loving it.

It definitely needs min waist/stomach high and up wave to start to feel it perform imo.

Taking it to Fiji next month and hoping to get into some good ones with it.

Thanks for the review!

So why haven't you had a board from Newy? MR or Sam Eagan or Paul Parks, all these guys have shape for the best or were.

How did you size this compared to your V3? When I sat down with Matt to get my custom Stealth he pretty much pulled up my V3 from the prior year and shaped the stealth outline so that my V3 fit into the stealth. You could see where the nose of the stealth extended. I went in expecting to get a stealth with same or slightly less liters, but instead he added an inch and thus a liter or two. He tweaked the thickness and rails so it wouldn't balloon too much off the V3. Off the rack I would have totally picked the wrong size. But Matt really knows how to fit a board to a person (even an average surfer like me). Gotta trust him on that. I also love how much time he takes when he sits down with you. I always wait for his local shapers night events, to sit with him personally.
Also, I didn't put channels into mine. Both Matt and Nate Yeomans commented how a stealth with channels tends to get air underneath if the wave has some bump. Maybe that's where you experienced some of the instability?

Matt Biolos is an awesome shaper and person (I don't pretend to know him but have met him once and his reputation is outstanding. He has such a wealth of experience about boards, too, consider yourself lucky that you've had some time with him!

To you question, I did almost the same as you. I was on a 6'2 V3 Rocket and my Stealth was a little longer but with similar volume. Still, you are always going to have a better experience when a master shaper is there to guide you to the right result!

Also lost boards are way smaller than they look. The nose and tails are super thinned out.

CompareSurfboards.com - 5 years ago
Interesting Justin - that's not my experience. This V3 Stealth does have a pulled in and thinned out nose but most ...Lost's I get have a pretty generous foil throughout. Then again, I don't go for the high performance stuff very often. Regardless, good to hear your feedback

Interesting review. Always wondered about it. Love my V3 Rocket. As a rule I don't get a board with channels.

I appreciate that Terence - a lot of people shy away from them and I've had both good and bad experiences!

I noticed too that lost shape are so friendly with guy like me 189lbs 86kilos ,'maybe because the master shape are based on matt biolos , not skinny regular pro surfer ;-) plus their two size system bro and pro dim are really good.
