==History of Hawaiian Island Creations Surfboards==<br />
<br />
The Tsukuyama brothers didn’t originally enter the surfboard business. They first opened up a bike shop on the Hawaiian Islands in 1971 called the Kailua Bike Shop. During the 1970s energy crisis, bike orders shot through the roof, and as a result, the Tsukuyama brothers had extra revenue to reinvest elsewhere.<br />
<br />
The brothers decided to capitalize on the opportunity and opened up a wholesaling division for plant items that was the initial product for Hawaiian Island Creation (also simply known as HIC). They would then soon add surfboards and accessories to the line-up, beginning the tradition of selling quality boards to the present.<br />
<br />
Currently, Eric Arakawa and Steve Morgan are shapers with HIC.<br />
<br />
==Overview of Hawaiian Island Creations Surfboards==<br />
<br />
Currently, HIC Surfboards is run by a third party called Surfboard Factory Outlet (SFO). They are the exclusive licensee for the HIC Surfboards.<br />
<br />
Therefore, information on the types of surfboards is not available through the HIC or SFO website. We’ll update this section as more information is available.<br />
