Eco Impacto 2

Lib Technologies is dedicated to hands on board building and riding. We have spent a lifetime surfing, shaping and working with alternative high performance environmentally friendly materials and constructions. Traditional surf construction has always felt too fragile and the building process is toxic and unhealthy for the planet and crafts people... we knew there had to be a better way.

eco2-header

A decade into our “better” surfboard construction journey we continue to improve our process and materials.

ECO IMPACTO 2 features our new pressure treated Hexylite honeycomb panels, G-Glass and Magnesium fiber fused in our plant based Bio Matrix resin system saving weight and improving board response.

LIB TECH FIN BOX SOLUTIONS

Why we use our own fin boxes?!

We faced many obstacles while developing our industry changing ECO IMPACTO 2 LITE construction. Our environmentally nicer dang difficult to ding process is so unique that none of the stock fin boxes from other systems can be used without significant modification. We’re always looking at challenges as opportunity, in that light we put energy into developing our own unique FCS and Futures compatible fin box systems. We think our systems offer upgrades to each system that make them the best boxes in the world!

LIB TECH FOC-II (FCS® compatible)

Our FOC-II fin boxes are compatible with FCS two tab and FCS-II but lighter and offer 5/16” of adjustability in the fin box when using our RRIPs upcycled fins! Available on all models except Pickup Stick 8’ and Terrapin.

LIB TECH FUTURES® COMPATIBLE

Three years ago we developed a unique “high performance” Futures® Compatible system that features set “grub” screws at both ends of the fin box. The rear screw replaces the traditional bar that anchors the trailing end of the fin. You can set the rear screw once and never adjust it and use the front screw to lock the fin in like you do with traditional Futures®. Or you can actually tighten both screws once the fin is in place and lock in both ends for an extra rigid high performance feel. (You will need to slightly loosen the trailing screw and use the front screw as you normally would to get the fin out of the box if you choose to double lock it in). Available on Quiver Killer, Swordfish, Puddle Jumper HP, Rocket Redux.

FUTURES® SINGLE 8” & 10.5" FIN BOXES

We are able to use stock Futures® single fin box with some slight modifications... these work exactly like a traditional Futures® single fin box. 8" Futures® single fin box used on Pickup Stick 7’0", 7'6" and 8'0". 10.5" Futures® single fin box used on Pickup Stick 9'0".

LIB TECH FOC-II® FIN BOX
lib-surf-FOC-II-fin-box

Fits FOC-II®, FCS® Two Tab and Lib RRIPs® fins

  • Optimized placement for FCS-II®

  • RIPPs compatible with 5/16 performance adjustability

  • Light and tough

FUTURES® COMPATIBLE FIN BOX
lib-surf-Futures-compatible-fin-box_26_

Fits Futures® High Performance Fins

  • Double set screw replaces fixed pin

  • Operates like a traditional Futures® Box

  • Can “performance lock” fins in with both screws

FUTURES® SINGLE 8" & 10.5" FIN BOXES

8" & 10.5" Standard size single fin box

  • Fits traditional single fins

FOAM DUST AND OFF CUT RECYCLING

Our amazing Nitrogen Cell foam contains 25-40% recycled material and we are able to recycle 100% of our offcuts and shavings back into foam. (Traditional surfboard scrap foam ends up in the landfill.)
