Lib Tech Terrapin Surfboard
Lib Tech Terrapin Surfboard
Alex Lopez mastered the art of speed, style and flow in the powder fields of Mt Bachelor. He studied the art of shaping under the wing of his father and some of the best board builders of our time. Alex has dedicated the last decade of his life to the shaping room, refining his skills and perfecting his surf craft one board at a time with his test pilot partner Leah Dawson and a crew of talented free-surfers.
The Terrapin is Alex’s personal favorite ride. Designed to be a versatile wave catching one-board quiver that excels in all conditions at your home breaks but you can confidently push into larger quality surf at quality wave destinations around the world. This agile "modern classic" wide point forward single fin is built for smooth surfing and glide. Alex’s magically sculpted vision in our dang difficult to ding construction is sure to relax your lifestyle and take your surfing to new dimensions.
“Built for glide, wide point forward, longer rail line for smooth surfing. My personal favorite board.” - A. Lopez

Lib Tech Terrapin - At a Glance
When I saw this board come into the shop, I was so impressed with how good it felt under arm. I didn't know much about Alex's life, so I googled his name and watched him surf and see the work he puts into shaping surfboards. After learning more of Alex's story I am so stoked to see his shape in a Lib Tech Construction. This board not only looks gorgeous but surfs amazing. I feel like it paddles fast into waves early and builds speed due to the long rail line. The single fin box is perfect because that's how the board wants to be surfed. The turns feel slower, but I feel like the board gains more speed that way and creates this flow of energy between the board and myself. If you're on the quest for a special surfboard designed by a really cool shaper and built almost bullet proof, then look no further than the Terrapin.
