Congratulations go out to Freestyle athlete Cory Lopez for landing the coveted cover of SURFER Magazine for the month of September. Lopez, a ten-year World Championship Tour (WCT) veteran who has consistently been ranked in the top 15 for the last five years, currently holds the number 23 spot just over halfway through the season. Last month, Lopez added business owner to his list of accomplishments as he opened the doors to the Nekton Board Shop in his home town of Indian Rocks Beach, Florida. The shop caters to surfers, skaters and skim boarders, as well as all who enjoy the active beach lifestyle.
