Does Hobie make surfboards?
Yes, Hobie does indeed make surfboards. Hobie surfboards humbly began in 1950 in Hobie Alter’s dad’s garage. Surfing greats Phil Edwards, Joey Cabell and Corky Carroll were a part of the Hobie team, and the brand has stood the test of time and is still in production today.
