Vintage Weber Performer for Sale
Dewey Weber was an iconic surfboard builder from Hermosa Beach, California. He opened the first Weber Surfboards in Venice in 1960. Within 5 years he established retail stores in California and Hawaii, while distributing boards and accessories/gear to other retailers throughout the USA and world. He was also the first surfboard manufacturer to designate a model name to particular surfboard design; the Weber “Performer”. The “Performer” was the most popular board of the mid-1960’s, during the peak of the long board era. To date, it is one of the most sought after acquisitions on the vintage surfboard collectors market.
You now have the opportunity to add one to your own distinguished quiver.
