World's Biggest Surfboard
in 2015, on International Surfing Day, 66 former US Open of Surfing winners, Surfing Walk of Fame and Surfers Hall of Fame inductees, celebrities, and local Huntington Beach heroes rode a custom-built, 42-foot-long surfboard to break two Guinness World Records for: World's Largest Surfboard (42 long, 11 wide, 16 thick, 1,300 pounds), and "Most People Riding a Surfboard at Once." The 66 riders caught a wave for 12 seconds.
As per GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS® requirements, the Big Board was built like any other surfboard, just on a larger scale, by local surfboard shapers and boat builders. The board was crafted and designed after one of the famous short boards ridden by Brett Simpson, Hurley sponsored professional surfer and Huntington Beach local.
The Biggest Board is proudly on display outside the International Surfing Museum in Huntington Beach
