Blaker Surfboards 1963 Pin

When you mention surfing, it's usually California or Florida that come to mind, but believe it or not, Texas actually has some pretty decent surf spots. Where this is surf, there are surfers, and where there are surfers, there are guys making surfboards. Such is the case in Houston, where McDonald “Mack” Blaker founded Blaker Surfboards in 1963. For seven years, Mack and his crew of shapers turned out custom Texas style surfboards that were made to order. They closed their doors in 1970, but many of these well-made boards are still out there and high desired by collectors and surfers alike.
