Wegener Surfboards: Alaia

[Malverick69]

Very Nice!

[gheorghe333]

I can swim faster than paddle on this board

[Seaglass4cast]

This is the past, and the future of surfing, when people start doing shuvits on these, its gonna be so sickkk

[ChennyB0Y]

Man i tried practicing how to ride alaia board by taking the fins off my foam board, so hard....

[MrBradyiscool]

Awesome

[TheSponger4life]

such a thin board

[surferphoto97]

what wood is it for these boards?



[anonymous812]

Those things are harder than sin to surf.

[BadIdeas101]

did he just pendy slide a surfboard?????(if you longboard you know what that is)

[GoldenXen]

Have no fins.



[joemcarthur]

@BadIdeas101 nope. no pendy sliding there my friend. just some loose bottom turns and some laybacks (i don't know what a pendy slide is but i can assure you he did not do one).

[clarkewi]

[WeRideAnything]

Top notch. Thanks Wegeners for bringing back the pure. Really impressive... Ride Anything!

[smiths5000]

so fluid, amazing. they made that look easy but being a surfer o know that that is extremely difficult! great video

[kevinmcnally2002]

it's like a long skim board

[texasmfp]

right on Wegener bros

[RobertGoulet298]

Very nice. Beautiful symmetry with the music and the surfing.  Jon Wegener stopped by my local shop yesterday in Rhode Island, USA and spoke a bit about the alaias they're making. Gave us a little demo as well and we were all able to try out the boards. They're such beautiful pieces of art! Hard to ride! The guys in this video are insane. Check out my channel to see what I filmed of Jon yesterday. Thanks!

[taradead]

Dainggg!!!...that was impressive. Super soulful. If those ancient Hawaiians could have seen that, they probably would have made these guys kings.

[Bravohi]

The ancient Hawaiians were probably doing things on these board which would make these guys seem like beginners

[khaas15]

well i doubt it because the ancient hawaiians used boards that were 4 times the size of these

[Bravohi]

Those bigger boards are called Olo's and they were used by the kings. The Alaia's were smaller and used by the common people. Haven't you ever seen that old photo of the Hawaiian standing and holding the small Alaia behind his back (which is about 6 1/2 or 7 feet long). It is at the Bishop Museum along with Olo's and Alaia's

[adonismateos]

@Bravohi: yea except for that the ancient hawaiians surfed 100lbs planks of wood and theses guys surf a ply.. doubt they were able to do the samethings hous

[hasurf1]

love it.

[FruscianteisGOD]

SOUL :]

[jasonlajoie]

No fins? What? How? I'm still rubbing my eyes, this can't be what I'm seeing.
