Super Surfer w/red diamond was not made by Hobie is my info....
Super Surfer actually copied the OG non laminated same size hobie.
Super Surfer made their own line of decks, maybe one style and was gone or bot by
Hobie... Hobie did make a super surfer...  My limited info. Not bible info either.
Was wondering if U knew the story. Its ok nobody 100% does LOL!

Hobie Weaver usually has first series ACS 430s, the fully threaded axles end to end.
Often used Road Rider 2 size, red power paw wheels or just a no name on  red wheel. Not sure which was first or OG to Hobie Weaver.
Your HW looks really dark and might be too deep to sand properly without
losing a lot of wood. Just a fyi, been there dun that with Wood Pro Class decks

Can see my Hobie Weaver Restorations on restoration page....
Done about 5 total hobie weavers, Posted 1 or 2..... My hobie weaver is on hobie
page as well..... Nice collection you got. In fact its freaking awesome!

I've been searching everywhere for the real story on Hobie/Super Surfer but cannot find anything anywhere. Point me in the right direction. I believe one company made them all. They all have Super Surfer trucks. The same company also made a line of boards for Wards....the Wards Hawthorne series, which included one laminated and two solid oaks, a 24 and a 30.

The Weaver is easily restorable without taking too much wood. It does have the early ACS's and Power Paws...both in good shape.

So this is my next project...

I have one coming from eGay. It needs some TLC and a set of the white, Hobie clay wheels. I will post before & after photos when I get working on it.

del*13 got me started on this quest. He gave me a Hobie laminated complete that is in great shape. I was thinking of refinishing it but it is really nice as is. I'll have to get all of my Hobie/Super Surfer boards together and post up a couple shots.... Thanks Steve!

oh yeah......here are shots of a pair of his...

That's a cool clip of Dave Hilton! Paris Hilton probably has no idea how cool her uncles were back in the day!
