When the phone call comes in and they say “I have an original hand shaped 8’6" Barry Kanaiaupuni Gun”, you drop what you’re doing and go get it. This my friends is a diamond in the rough.  A true iconic gem in 100% ALL ORIGINAL CONDITION.  The deck is all clear with a blue lightning bolt with matching blue rail wrap and bottom.  It has a ¼ inch wooden stringer and above it in script that says “by Barry Kanaiaupuni”.  The bottom has an opaque white bolt with a red glass on fin, making this board a true piece of Americana.

The original owner purchased the board in Hawaii, tried riding it, then brought it home to San Diego, tried to ride it once more, and then sat at his house for 45 years.

Barry was at the top of his surfing career during the early to mid 70’s and a board like this was part of the reason.  If you are a B.K aficionado, or a lightning bolt collector, then don’t let this BARRY KANAIAUPUNI ALL-ORIGINAL PIPELINER LIGHTNING Bolt GET AWAY!  Especially at NO RESERVE!   Good luck to all bidders…
