Lib Tech Lost Glydra 6'8" Surfboard
A mid-length glider version of the beloved Lib Tech Hydra. Glydra!
Born in a Jersey hurricane..."Hey Matt, you know what would be sick? A HYDRA stretched out to a mid-Length"- It paddles great, catches waves with ease, trims till the wave hits the beach and it´s Mayhem so you know it performs! To do all this we stayed true to the Hydra`s magic making design elements and made some performance enhancing adjustments. They reduced the intensity of the side cut outline that locks in control and shortens radius of turn while gaining speed and maintaining control. Lib Tech kept the double concave inside a single concave hull that adds speed while allowing proper turns and vertical surfing. They also kept the distinct chines that add release and allow a concave high volume board to roll easily rail to rail. We increased the rocker as the board grew in length so the longer rail line would fit into the curves of smaller waves and feel free. To be ridden about 12” longer than you would HYDRA or other Fish, or even 12” taller than your own height, depending on skill level and preference.

Technologically tougher - environmentally nicer! Lib Tech is dedicated to board riding and hands on high tech board building. We have spent a lifetime of surfing, shaping and working with alternative, high performance, environmentally friendly materials and constructions. Traditional surfboard construction has always felt too fragile and the build process is toxic and unhealthy for the planet and craftspeople. They know there had to be a way...
The evolution of ecoIMPACTO Mike Olson and the Lib Tech hands on craftsperson crew are constantly experimenting and working to improve our process and materials. The latest incarnation of their original ecoIMPACTO construction incorporates a new improved formula of the Lib Tech foam and refinements to the Lib Tech process that reduce weight and improve performance while retaining that “Dang Difficult to Ding” durability that relaxes your lifestyle, makes Lib Techs the best travel boards in the world and hold their value over time.
