- 1930s Pacific System Homes Wooden SurfboardLocated in Haleiwa, HILate-1930s Pacific system Homes wood surfboard. Features an intricate design created with redwood and pine wood. Beautiful embellishments in the form of nose and tail blocks complete with an early style surfboard fin with low profile. This early surfboard weighs approximately 100 lbs. This incredible relic of surfing history has been held in the same Long Beach, CA family since new, handed down through several generations. This listing represents a seldom offered opportunity to own an remarkable early wooden surfboard from the 1930s. Little is known about the first Pacific System Homes boards, produced either in late 1929 or early 1930, except that they were made from redwood strips held together with lag bolts, and were probably 10 feet long and weighed about 70 pounds. Pine and redwood boards replaced the all-redwood boards by 1932; full-length redwood-edged balsa boards, weighing as little as 45 pounds and costing less than $40, were introduced in the mid-’30s. A swastika symbol—used by American Indians, Vikings, and Greeks as a sign of good luck and harmony—was wood-burned or print-marked onto the back of all Pacific System Homes’ Swastika boards up until 1937. The following year, after the swastika-decorated German military invaded Austria, Pacific System changed the line name to “Waikiki Surf-Boards.” The 1939 Waikiki board came in 10-, 11-, and 12- foot models, as well as a 14-foot paddleboard, and five- or six-foot “kiddie boards.” All were typical of the plank period: blunt-nosed, squared off at the tail, with near-parallel sides. Pacific System Homes boards were made in production runs of 15 on sawhorses in a designated dust-free area of the company’s 25-acre site, and were sold in beach clubs, sporting good stores, and high-end department stores like Robinson’s and the Broadway. Custom-made Pacific System Homes boards were also available, built by top California surfer-boardmakers like Pete Peterson and Whitey Harrison. California boardmaker Dale Velzy...Category
