Beneath the Surf
Chinatown Boardroom is a big supporter of our beautiful ocean. We love waves, to look at and to ride, but we have yet to explore what lies below.
Beneath the Surf will showcase underwater photography by Erin Pfuntner. In 2004, Erin moved from California to Hawaii where she currently works in the dive industry as a Divemaster and USCG Boat Captain. While working in her profession, she has been able to further her love of the ocean through photography. Erin is a firm believer in giving back to the things she loves. She volunteers with local conservation groups as well as educates others on the importance of the marine ecosystem. As a tribute to the ocean, which makes up more that 70% of the Earth’s surface, this art show will focus on what lies beneath the surf. Chinatown Boardroom will donate a portion of the proceeds to Surfrider Foundation – Oahu Chapter.
What: Beneath the Surf – Photography by Erin Pfuntner

2009 Hawaiian Islands Vintage Surf Auction
Event producer Randy Rarick has done it again! This year's auction is already shaping up to be the biggest and best yet. As has become the tradition, veteran surfboard designers, shapers and manufactures will be in attendance, including Matt Kivlin, Joe Quigg, Greg Noll, Dick Brewer, Ben Aipa, Bing Copeland, and Ole Olson, amongst a host of others.
Surf stars of the '60s the likes of Jock Sutherland, Fred Hemmings, Ricky Grigg, Joey Cabell, Buffalo Keaulana and many others will also be on hand. They will be joined by short board pioneers of the '70s & '80s: Pipeline Masters Gerry Lopez, Rory Russell and Jeff Crawford; as well as world champions Mark Richards, Peter Townend, Shaun Tomson, and Tom Carroll, all of whom will have personalized surfboards from the various eras. They will be joined by revered Hawaii surfers Larry Bertlemann, Barry Kanaiaupuni and Bobby Owens.
Never-before-seen surfboards have been unearthed, including an ancient 1850 breadfruit board, turn-of-the-century redwood planks, hollow paddle boards, design-changing early wood/fiberglass prototypes, big wave "guns" of the '60s, and pro boards of the '70s and '80s.
Along with the treasure trove of surfboards will be an eclectic selection of Hawaiian-theme artwork, surf contest items, unique island-influenced surf memorabilia, some of the first images of surfing ever depicted in print from Missonary times, off-beat surf advertising from early media, and other rare finds.
The ever-popular "Antiques Road Show"-style appraisals will be back again for those curious to find out the value of personal surf collectibles.
