Wild times.
Surfboards have been turned into controversial things, wall hangers, street signs, catwalk accessories, but none more controversial than a CyberTruck. Manhattan Beach’s Brad Jacobson took to Facebook Marketplace in order to announce, “I’m selling a custom CyberTurck surfboard which was built for me to use in one of my YouTube episodes. It’s not officially licensed by Tesla but is an actual surfboard. The upper shell was built using carbon fiber so it’s light but sturdy. It was surfed for my episode and it fits in my 4runner. Dimensions: 6’10 / 29.5.”
The craft was listed for $2000 United States dollars and sold in under 20 hours.
The aforementioned YouTube episode, released one month ago and climbing past 3,000 views, shows the craft is actually not a surfboard but rather a SUP.
Manhattan Beach, as you know, is home to SUP enthusiast and former World Surf League CEO Erik Logan. He was ruthlessly fired in a one word sentence whilst the tour was in Brazil last year. He has since embarked on an influencer career.
Do you think he is the happy new owner?
More importantly, what if you saw the CyberTruck SUP coming at you, one fine day, whilst you were out straddling your boring old high performance thruster? Would you good-naturedly chat up its pilot or sneer and angry sneer and yell something anti-Elon Musk?
What are your thoughts on the CyberTruck, specifically, and Tesla, in general?
