Item Description
One of Laguna Beach’s beloved sons, Hobart “Hobie” Alter dreamed of never having to wear hand-soled shoes, and living in a clean ocean-oriented lifestyle. Inclined towards creation and a love of surfing, he established Hobie Surfboards in 1950 and opened the first surf shop in 1954. In Dana Point, Hobie Surfboards quickly became an industry leader, cultivating a reputation for craftsmanship, innovation, quality and inspired performance. Beyond surfboards, Alter continued to reinvent what would become action sports by pushing the design of many contemporary inventions, such as the catamaran. Today, 68 years later, they’re still here, making hand-shaped surfboards the way Hobie envisioned. His legacy lives on in every surfboard made.
The current board available for the Holiday Surfboard Auction is a Bucky-318870 Model. Dimension: 9’6” x 23 1/8” x 3 1/8”.
The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel currently features a Hobie historical display near RAYA, highlighting the evolution of the iconic surf and active sports brand.
