Surfboards Since 1950. In 1950 Hobie built his first balsa boards for his surf buddies. These boards did not have the Hobie Surfboards name as Hobie did not yet realize he would be a force in the blossoming surfboard industry.Hobie Alter was a top waterman, big wave surfer, champion tandem surfer, long distance paddler, inventor, inovator and of course, promoter. And to think it all started with the Hobie Surfboard that Hobie built in his Dad's garage!
