Phil Edwards Honolulu

Hobie Surfboards proudly continues the legacy of surfing icon Phil Edwards with the unveiling of the Phil Edwards Honolulu Series, or The Phil Honolulu, this holiday season. These boards epitomize Mr. Edwards' shaping prowess from his late-sixties residence on the Hawaiian Islands. Our 2023 interpretation faithfully captures Phil's visionary surfboard shaping principles, featuring a wide-point back speed shape, precisely pinched 50/50 rails, forward displacement, and a straight rail-line in the tail, all synergistically designed to enhance down-the-line speed and dynamic turns. Collaborating with shaper Adam Davenport, each Honolulu board boasts a meticulous construction process with a precise stringer glue-up, echoing Mr. Edwards' commitment to quality and attention to detail. We invite you to ride the wild surf with the Phil Honolulu, a modern embodiment of late-sixties-inspired speed and style!
