Hey. Looking to get some input. Looking a this board, apparently original Keyo 1964, asking $2500?

Looks in great condition for its age.

Have been told the fin is original but I can't tell? thoughts?

could will be with the repairs I can see,theres a mad old board in here called Bigspazz hope he logs in,he will be able to give you some sound advice.

Are you riding this yourself or investing or wall hanging? If you are riding it I would suggest 2 * modern day equivs that take the best of the old and blend with the new. As an investment Big Spazz is your man. Wall hanging wise - depends on the colour of your wall and yr style

Bit of all three. would love to ride it to see how it goes. I would also have to find a wall big enough to hang it!!

The fin looks original, can't see that it's been reset...Trophy decal played on Midgets Hawaiin win, but doesn't mean he shaped them...but he rode Keyo..

vanders got one that colour for less than half that price.



I believe he got it brand new too

For $2500 you'd be better off with one of these and something else with the change.

I guess it depends on the what Janglang wants the board for,as a surfboard its rich in history,is it worth 2.5 k I have no idea,as far as buying it to surf I'd agree with the others guys.i've I was to blow 2.5 on a board it would be a BING or something like that but noway would I spent that sort of money only to have some kook drop in and run it over.

i wouldn't run it over i promise.


us kooks getting a bum rap again

Classic CW hijack

midgets shapes from that era had two logos.....as far as the fin being original, the dork fins came back with more curve and ended just before the tail and the end of them was more rounded.However it could be the original that's been re shaped.it looks similar to the fins miki Dora used....the Kelpcutterrrrrr.in that era the fins were recessed into the stringer, if you got a grinder onto one side of the rovings that would reveal if its imbedded.its over priced by 700-1000.

As well, that outline is reminiscent of the classic phil Edwards boards and Midget admired his surfing and admits phils smooth style was a big influence

+1 possible good investment if you have a surfboard museum or blank wall needing decoration. But for something to surf you could get a couple of awesome 2nd handy longboards for that $$$$

Get you Keyo boards here! ... Johnnie Gill is a master craftsman... When Bob stops shaping, Johnnie will be my man!

Looks original to me...price seems a bit high though you do get quite a few Keyo's floating around
