A defining feature of all …Lost boards is the exclusive “Progressive Rocker” concave, drawing inspiration from surfboard construction techniques. This concave design enhances the skateboard’s responsiveness, enabling a performance-oriented pumping action reminiscent of riding waves, thus adding a dynamic dimension to your skating experience.
Equipped with CX trucks in a raw color finish, the Rad Ripper ensures durability and precise control over your maneuvers.

Integrated built-in bearings guarantee smooth rolling and require minimal maintenance, enhancing the overall efficiency of your ride.
Measuring 31 1/8 inches in length and 10 1/2 inches in width, the deck provides ample space for comfortable foot placement, optimizing balance and control. The 17 1/4-inch wheelbase further contributes to stability and speed, allowing for confident and fluid skating.
Enhancing both function and style, the deck comes adorned with Lost Stringer grip tape, offering reliable traction while adding visual flair. The hardware, constructed from stainless steel, ensures corrosion resistance and long-lasting performance, reinforcing the board’s durability.
Rooted in the pioneering legacy of Lost Surfboards, co-founded by Matt “Mayhem” Biolos and a group of school friends in 1985, the Rad Ripper skateboard pays homage to the brand’s innovative spirit and enduring influence on the surfing world. With its fusion of retro aesthetics and modern performance features, this skateboard promises an exhilarating and unforgettable ride for enthusiasts of all skill levels.
