Hi, first post here. Im a casual collector of anything Skate, surf, hot rod, vintage motorcycle related.
I got these from the guy who started CHP and Airfoil. I met him when I lived on Oahu. He told me how him and his brother started Airfoil with the Koa wood wedge tailed board. Then by the time they had started making the bigger 80's style board other companies had implemented the kick in the nose. They were just a couple guys on the North Shore and couldn't keep up at the time. I think this was around '81.
he pulled a couple out of his attic and I can't remember what I bought these for.
Id like to see what they would go for each or possibly a pair.
Neither have ever been gripped, drilled or ridden.
The Airfoil has some discoloration in the nose. Its smooth when I run my finger over it. No pitting or delamination. Not sure what it is. Might even wipe off. I haven't tried to clean either deck.
Let me know what you guys think.
Pic I found online for reference:

| Very cool, extremely rare. Challenge is that very few people even know about this company... so the market is limited. No clue the values, but I’ll give it a shot. I’d say the Airfoil could be worth $1k - $1.5k ish, and the CHP maybe $500-$700. Total guess. |

That's right where I was kind of thinking too.
I put them both on Ebay for $699. No bids so far.
I think someone might score a pretty solid deal.
I hate to see them go but I'm saving up for a new motorcycle that I really want. |
