The Treefish Longboard is an original special edition design, exclusive to Ventana Surfboards. There are only TWO of them in existence, so get your hands on one before its too late!
The tops are made of padauk, African mahogany, and maple.
The bottoms incorporate the Ventana Treefish logo which is infused with hidden meaning. The treefish is made of Doug fir from hull of the original Western Flyer boat, considered by many to be the most famous fishing boat in the world. John Steinbeck, Ed "Doc" Ricketts and crew chartered this 77-foot sardine boat into the Sea of Cortez in Baja California, Mexico in 1940. The following year, Steinbeck published
his book, The Log from the Sea of Cortez about the adventure. Learn more about this amazing boat and Ventana's use of its wood.
The lighter wood is Alaskan yellow cedar offcut from the rebuild of the Western Flyer boat and the medium tone wood toward the tip is reclaimed flame maple. The California Grizzly bear is made of claro walnut salvaged from Spreckles, CA and donated to us by Osgood Design.
