Description

The history of the surfboard is one of innovation---innovation that has in turn shaped the sport of surfing. The Surfboard follows this history, from the first «wave-riding» redwood planks crafted by ancient Hawaiians to the vacuum-sealed, lightweight, «plastic fantastic» technological marvels of today.Beautifully illustrated with historical prints and engravings, as well as the latest surf photography and detailed closeups, this book documents the surfboards evolution as a perfect convergence of form and function.
