Lost Surfboards 3.0 Stub Driver (Custom Order)
Brand new, daily updated, powerful player, developed with Kolohe Andino. The 3.0_STUB is a direct derivative of the long time developed, but recently released, DRIVER3.0.
A board developed with elite surfers looking for the "ultimate driving machine", the DRIVER3.0 was primarily tested in and around World Tour waves (not necessarily the typical 1'-3' soft slop that most of us suffer through on a daily basis) and still left room at the bottom end for higher performance in less big waves.
Here comes the 3.0STUB. A stripped down and “blunted” low-end/high-performance machine for smaller waves.
Unlike the Sub-Driver (our other step-down performance board), the 3.0_STUB doesn't use a vee in the tail. Instead, it features a full-length rocker/concave combination. This is the main difference between the two boards. The DRIVER 3.0's rocker, while noticeably more relaxed, is still loose and lively, quick and easy to release, under the back foot. It fits into small pockets or fast, bumpy sections more effortlessly than the SubDriver. Perfect for small beach breaks.
The similarities in rocker, bottom contour and outline provide a similar ride feel when switching between the DRIVER3.0 and the 3.0STUB. That was the goal and that is the result.
FEATURES: ...Compared to DRIVER3.0
Relaxed entry-level rocker, with a slightly wider nose area.
Relaxed tail rocker, with a slight hip and a wider tail block (but not as wide as the SubDriver).
More width overall, with the thickness carried further into the nose and under the back foot.
Deeper single and double concave combination for more buoyancy with plenty of rail curve in less strong waves.
Slightly flatter deck, with soft, forgiving rails.
Working with Kolohe, who after riding the DRIVER3.0 in real surf wanted to feel like he was riding the same board on T-Street or the small trestles. Riding SubDrivers felt “almost stiff.” He wanted a board that didn’t require any adjustment in technique and could be seamlessly transitioned with the DRIVER3.0.
“Why not just make it a step-down board?”
And that's exactly what we did. We put them under the feet of our WQS crew: Crosby Cola, Cole Houshmand, Eli Hanniman and Michael Dunphy, who immediately responded with positive feedback and now carry them in their Challenger Series small wave arsenal.
If you are passionate about performance surfing and riding performance surfboards... and tend to do so in average to moderate surf, then the 3.0STUB is for you. It is designed to be ridden just 1" shorter than a DRIVER3.0 and our standard dimensions reflect this. For example, if you ride a 6'0" DRIVER3.0, the 5'11" 3.0STUB should fit perfectly.
Together they form a perfectly paired duo of modern, powerful vehicles.

Return Period
You are of course entitled to return goods. Please note that you have 14 days after receipt to send the items back to us.

We are very flexible and can of course extend the deadline for you – just let us know quickly in advance. Please note, however, that we are unable to extend deadlines for "purchase on account" orders, as this is handled by an external payment provider.
