Description

vintage CHP (California Hawaii Promotions) skateboard deck. NOS from the mid 70's.
This is an extremely rare board from the same people that brought you Airfoil skateboards in the late 70's into the early 80's. This board is made from Koa wood from Haleiwa, Oahu. It has a wedge tail. Has never been gripped, drilled, ridden or stickered. I have not cleaned it but will probably shine up very nicely.
I got this board when I lived in Hawaii from the guy who started Airfoil Skateboards. He had a couple of these in his attic with airfoil graphics (like the one in the last pic) I bought this one because it was different from the rest. It looks like Airfoil made a short run of decks for CHP.
The board itself is beautifully crafted out of native Hawaiian Koa wood. Koa wood itself is valuable as it ONLY grows in Hawaii and is no longer legal to harvest.
There is hardly any info out there on these extremely rare decks.
Here's a link from 11 years ago with some info about CALIFORNIA HAWAII PROMOTIONS (CHP):

Board is in great shape. 29" x 7.5"
Check out my other auction for the Airfoil deck that came after this style board. These together would make a great set for any collector. I would love it if they stayed together.

The last picture is a screen grab I found online. I put it there for reference. The board pictured in the reference photo was stickered, drilled, ridden and sold for 0. I think its more than fair to start the bidding at that price.
