World’s Most Expensive Wooden Surfboard Costs $1.3 Million

If you have particularly deep pockets and you take your surfing seriously, then you’ll want to learn a bit about the most expensive wooden surfboard in the world, which was created by a skilled artisan named Roy Stuart. Made out of sturdy yet lightweight Paulownia wood, the 10’6” Rampant surfboard represents the pinnacle of 20 years of research and development in the field of hydrodynamics.

With a weight of 31 pounds, this high-end surfboard is capable of reaching speeds of up to 35 mph thus guaranteeing adrenaline-pumping experiences for its fortunate owner. The board was coated with a special 23-carat gold dragon inlay and was laminated with a red resin that ensures utmost responsiveness and resilience. The wooden hull of the surfboard is hollow in order to ensure improved lift-drag ratio, but its Vort-X tunnel fin of 6 inches is the highlight that guarantees the board’s exceptional performance capabilities.

Clearly, the Rampant surfboard by Roy Stuart is an outstanding product that would allow you to gain a clear edge on the waves, but its advantages come with a price tag of $1.3 million. We did mention you’d need deep pockets for it, didn’t we?
