LEGITGot this board in a 5'6 to replace my KT plate lunch epoxy (Tired of cracks/dings etc).
First impressions: I was blown away at how solid this board is, it looks really well made & feels that way too. Fast forward to my first surf on it at hookipa in Maui (Windy/choppy conditions 4-6ft). From the first drop made I felt in control. Cutbacks/pumping/snaps were smooth and responsive and almost effortless. Board is very forgiving too.
This board is magic so far & it makes me even more confident when out in the water.
Hats off to libtech & lost for making the best board I've surfed to date. I appreciate all the hard workPosted on

BEST SHAPE, BEST TECH, BEST FINSIt's crazy that this board doesn't get more attention. It's amazingly user friendly on better waves, and the tech is unbeatable. I wish you guys would make all your boards with Futures boxes. A Puddle Fish, a Quiver Killer and a Pickup Stick, all in LibTech FC, would be my perfect full year around-the-world travel quiver.

MAGIC BOARD!Okay, after purchasing this board in September 2019, and having surfed it in multiple swells across south Florida, in conditions from knee high mush to 3' overhead freight train barrels at South Beach, to super clean 6' Swells at Juno Pier, I can definitively say this is the best and most versatile board I have ever surfed. I opted for the 6'4" as I have weighed between 205 and 215 lbs over the last couple years so I need a lot of volume. This board paddles like a dream and has lost absolutely zero flex or "pop" since I bought it. I have taken some heavy wipe outs and had two leash breaks on it and it doesn't even have a pressure ding! I have even flown with it to California and back, and the airlines (American) did their worst and there was no damage to this board. I am completely sold on LibTech Surf for design, construction, durability and top notch performance. I got the idea to try one of your surfboards after I fell in love with my T-Rice Pro 153 snowboard. I can't wait to kit out my whole quiver with LibTech Surfboards.
The board catches any wave easily, and is just as fun in mushy / choppy waves as it is reliable and solid performing in well overhead and pumping surf! It is super responsive and has incredible drive. Works well as both a thruster or a quad, and I was finally able to speed around closeout sections and whitewater and get back to the open face on the wave. It has totally revolutionized my surfing game. Bring on more high volume (over 40 Liters) high-performance options!!!Posted on

ULTIMATE TRAVEL BOARDIf you surf travel on a budget (myself) with one board this is it. Tough, rips and extremely versatile with all that volume. You never know what you are going to get when you book a trip. The shape and volume is perfect for most* travel to conditions. Also let's see what the airlines and chicken busses can do to this construction.
