phil edwards honolulu

Hobie Surfboards proudly continues the legacy of surfing icon Phil Edwards with the Phil Edwards Honolulu Series, also known as the Phil Honolulu. These boards reflect Mr. Edwards’ shaping prowess from his late-sixties residence on the Hawaiian Islands. This interpretation faithfully captures Phil’s visionary design principles, featuring a wide-point-back speed shape, precisely pinched 50/50 rails, forward displacement, and a straight rail line in the tail, all working together to deliver effortless down-the-line speed and dynamic turning. Built in collaboration with shaper Adam Davenport, each Honolulu board features meticulous construction and a precise stringer glue-up, echoing Mr. Edwards’ unwavering commitment to quality and detail. The Phil Honolulu is a modern embodiment of late-sixties-inspired speed, flow, and style.
