Riding the Gerry Lopez Something Fishy Fusion-HD Surfboard is 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 is a blend of Steve’s old template with Gerry’s take on the rails, bottom shape, and rocker. Gerry 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 that 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.
