Gerry Lopez Something Fishy (Fusion Hyper-Drive)

Like going back in time , while knowing everything you know now. Back in the early 1970s, Steve Lis created a surfboard design, The Fish, that has endured through the decades and is as valid today as it was almost 50 years ago. The Fish design has gone through just about every permutation and probably most shapers. The something Fishy/ Fusion-Poly is a blend of the old template and Gerry's take on rails, bottom shape and rocker. Gerry's Fish, like a Lis Fish, is still fast as heck, but the updates give Gerry's version a bit more maneuverability and make the board easier to control. We like how it works and, if you are a Fish lover, we think you might too. We loved the Something Fishy so much we decided to build it in our exclusive Fusion HD construction. This lightweight and responsive build is great for high-performance ripping, down-the-line projections, and other aggressive surfing techniques. Overall we feel the Fusion HD construction enhances the characteristics already found in the Something Fishy. Read more →

Shaper

Gerry Lopez grew up in the extraordinary place that was Hawaii in the 1950s and 1960s. He played a part in the shortboard revolution of the late 1960s and early 1970s. He experienced the awe, fear and ultimate satisfaction of finding the tube in the early days at the Pipeline. He traveled for surf throughout the world: to the original surf camp at G-Land, the exotic islands off Sumatra and especially to the magic island of Bali, Indonesia- before it became a popular surf destination. He experienced the beginnings of windsurfing on Maui, the early years of snowboarding and tow-in surfing at Jaws.

Fast forward to today and Gerry is shaping some truly unique boards that keeps his surfing journey moving forward. This collection of boards represents the quiver that he takes around the world to surf the ultimate breaks.
