About Odyboards Surf Shop & Factory
Odyboards Surf Shop & Factory is described as the largest surf shop and factory in Puerto Escondido, located in the La Punta de Zicatela area. The business combines a retail surf shop with an in-house board-shaping factory, where owner Ody Ordaz hand-shapes and glasses every board on site for the demanding local waves.
The shop offers surfboard rentals, ready-to-go in-stock boards for immediate pickup, and fully custom surfboards shaped to order. Boards are crafted from high-quality epoxy materials and designed specifically for the region's heavy breaks — the Mexican Pipeline, Zicatela and La Punta — so surfers get equipment tuned to the conditions they'll actually be riding. Worldwide pre-ordering lets travellers have a board ready on arrival and skip airline baggage fees.
Odyboards stands out for genuine craftsmanship: every board is hand-shaped and glassed in-house rather than mass-produced, earning praise from international customers for top-quality construction. For surfers heading to one of the world's most famous beach breaks, having access to locally made boards built for those exact waves — plus rental options for shorter stays — is a real advantage.
