Curly Koa Alaia Surfboard from Kauai – California Gold Surf Auction

Next Auction Golden Guns & Wicked Wood; April 16, 2021: “This jaw-dropping reproduction of a 19th century Hawaiian Curly Koa A'laia was hand shaped on Kauai by local Richard Gomez. The board's curly Koa provides a ‘iving’ wood aesthetic; the grain changes and seemingly ‘moves’ with different light infusions. With 52 hours labor in the shape/finish.”  From The Boardroom Surf Show
