HALF KING SURF COLLECTIVE Interview with Chris Whitcomb
100 years of surfboard design right here in Bali Hidden in a lil gang on jl.Oberoi is an amazing construction made of steel, recycled wood and glass with the number 177x on top. Moving up the steps to the 1st floor you enter a world of vintage radios, sunglasses, music instruments and historic wooden surfboards. We talk to owner Chris about this unique collection of surfboards of which some will be shown at Ombak Bali. Short surf history lesson Chris takes us back to the origins of surfing in ancient Polynesian culture when riding huge heavy wooden boards called ‘olos’ was a common pastime. A large collection of historic surf boards and plan shapes are on display in the Bishop museum in Hawaii. This is where Chris got the plans to which he reconstructed many of these historic wooden boards here in Bali out of respect for the history of surfboard design. All made of recycled wood from old furniture, houses and boats and the best thing is that they are all surfable although some are up to 50 kilos and not easy to take out for a ride. ”There are 2 historic boards here in Bali which I’d love to see”, says Chris. “They are owned by Balinese surf legend Made Switra and were brought to Bali by Robert Koke who was the first person to surf Kuta in the 1930’s”. Ten years Chris is passionate about wooden surf boards stating: “They are not only the past but also the future of surfing. Wood is not only more sustainable than fiberglass boards, which is pure toxic waste and takes hundreds of years to dissolve, but is also more dynamic, stronger and flexible”. Chris believes that in ten years from now everybody surfs wooden boards made of fast-growing wood (balsa, powlonia) that doesn’t destroy tropical rainforests. Surfing is after all an ocean experience so we should look after it. Surf in the backdrop If you’d like to try out one of these historic surf boards this is probably your once in a lifetime opportunity, Half King Surf Collective will take a collection of it’s oldies to Ombak Bali so come check ‘m out daily between July 20-23 at La Plancha 10 on Seminyak Beach.
