New in at the shop! Aloha x Shea Lopez Surfboards including the H-2 and the New Fish. Check ’em out below!
H-2 Surfboard
The H2, like all the designs I’m working with, was created through building surfboards for my friends to have more fun on. The H2 is an original concept dreamt up to skate across flat sections with a low rocker and fuller outline upfront that creates speed quickly and efficiently.
While the back end of the H2 pulls in nicely with moderate tail rocker and a rounded squash. Similar in design to a small wave shortboard. This tail allows for freedom of movement in steep sections with all that speed you’ve generated. The H2 is like that classic skateboard with soft wheels that rides smooth and does what you ask of it when you need it most.”

New Fish Surfboard
I love this design. The new fish helped me solve a major hangup I was having with original fish designs- the swallowtails. I only like a swallow tail if it is built as a quad for fast point-breaks or with a tiny swallow on a twin with a trailer for mushy beach-breaks.Neither of those are best suited for today’s surfing, or geared geared towards how I like to ride and shape surfboards. My goal when shaping is to make the experience as fun and easy as possible. Allowing you to surf better and more. This new fish with a clean curve through the tail and pulled in squash is best surfed with your normal thruster setup. If you want to ride fast and free in small surf, go a size smaller with the fins. Want to challenge yourself to take off steep and deep in super sucked out hollow tubes, go a size larger and hold on. This board flies. For top speed and quickness. There’s nothing faster on the water than the New Fish.”
