Dewey Weber (b. 1938), Performer Model
Dewey Weber (American, b. 1938) Performer Model With full paisley deck patch 114 inches (289.6 cm) In the late 50s nobody could touch Dewey Weber. The tiny but well-muscled Weber (5' 3", 130 pounds) rode in a bowlegged stance, and used jitterbugging foot speed to race up and down the deck of his board; he was soon nicknamed "the Little Man on Wheels." He placed second in the 1964 United States Surfing Championships, earning a slot in the 1965 Duke Kahanamoku Invitational, making the finals of the 1965 and 1967 Malibu Invitational. Weber Surfboards opened in 1960 in Venice, and soon became the one of the sport's most popular brands
