Lost began in 1985 when Matt "Mayhem" Biolos and a group of friends were more interested in surfing Dana Points, snowboarding and skating than scoring a goal in football or winning this thing or that. They did their own thing, got creative and carved out their niche as "Team Lost" - now one of the world's leading surfboard manufacturers.

Lost Surfboards have often been associated with hybrid shortboards that excel in smaller conditions especially for the average surfer. Whilst this is absolutely true, Lost also create high performance boards at the cutting edge of modern surfing with Stab in the Dark accolades to boast.
