Pat Curren’s Iconic 1959 Elephant Gun | California Gold Surf Auction 🏄‍♂️

Pat Curren wasn’t just shaping surfboards — he was crafting survival tools for Waimea Bay. 🌊 This 10’7” balsa elephant gun, built in the late 1990s for collector Tom Peck, carries six redwood stringers, a redwood tailblock, and the classic Volan glass rail lap. Signed by Curren himself, it’s both artifact and weapon, echoing back to 1959 when heavy boards faced heavier waves.

Now, it’s your chance to hold history in your hands. ✨ 👉 California Gold Surf Auction | Oct 4–18, 2025 https://www.thevintagesurfauctions.com/

Few surfboards carry the mythos of Pat Curren’s elephant guns. Purpose-built for Waimea Bay’s raw power, these were more than boards — they were lifelines. The 10’7” balsa now on offer was constructed in the late 1990s for Tom Peck, laminated by Curren himself, and finished with era-true details: six redwood stringers, Volan cloth, a redwood tailblock, and a period-correct fin.

It stands today as one of the finest examples of Curren’s craftsmanship, complete with a signed image of him in the shaping process.

Alife® Surfboard Dimensions: 6’0” x 20 1/2” x 2 5/8” Edition of 5

Every August to November, Atlantic hurricane season brings powerful storms and nor’easters resulting in the biggest swells for surfers down the east coast. To top off the local surf season, Alife worked with native New York surfboard shaper Mark Petrocelli of Faktion Surfboards™ (@faktionsurfboards) to create an edition of 5 unique surfboards. Every stage of the Alife Surfboard’s production, including shaping, sanding, polishing and more, was done by hand in New York entirely by Mark.

The Alife Surfboard is an egg shaped 6 foot long shortboard featuring a single fin set up. Channel your inner Ricky Rasmussen while surfing this board in small Rockaway to head-high Ditch Plains, the board is also perfect for intermediate to advanced surfers looking for an alternative to their everyday shortboard. The shape is more full in the nose than your average shortboard and a has a rounded pintail providing hold and allowing for a tighter turn. The Alife 6’0” Surfboard also includes an Alife® Greenough 4A 7.5” fin.

The Alife® 6’0” Surfboard is now available online and in-store for $1400.
