Hi
I’ve recently scored a cool Bolt 7’10"semi-gun which has a unique Bolt logo on the deck. The interest to me is specifically related to this logo as I have in my memory an image of someone riding a board with this style of logo. I haven’t seen another anywhere, and it has a unique tag on the stringer. It says - “Anakoni” LIghtning Bolt Hawaii. Anakoni apparently means “priceless” in Hawaiian and is the Hawaiian equivalent to “Anthony”. I don’t have any knowledge of an Anthony being one of the Shapers for LIghtning Bolt.
The image I have in my mind, I could have sworn was of Lopez surfing somewhere like G-land, but as I can’t find it via Google or other means I’m at a loss.
If anyone has any ideas on the origins of this board or it’s “Anakoni” reference I’d be stoked to hear from you. I’d love to see the image again!
Mahalo and Cheers
