Early 1930s Balsa Redwood Surfboard

This board is from the era when surfers took to the waves with homemade, handshaped boards.

Description

This one-of-a-kind, hand-built wooden surfboard from the 1930s was likely crafted by a skilled woodworker rather than mass-produced. 

Featuring a rare combination of solid pine deck and multi-wood underside, this board is a true standout for collectors and surf enthusiasts alike. The handcrafted bentwood nose reinforces the board’s strength while adding a touch of elegance. Whether you’re a surf history buff or just appreciate fine woodworking, this board is the perfect blend of craftsmanship and surf culture.
