This simple tumbler is used by Trader Vic's for serving Mai Tais. The glass is clear, with a white printed design inspired by tapa cloth. At the side of the design, "Trader Vic's" is in vertical letters. This glass is significantly smaller than the regular 15 oz mai tai glass, but looks much the same. They came as a set of three with a wood surf board holder as part of a "Wave" mai tai sampler (Maui, Mango, and Guava Mai Tais). Each surfboard was hand made. The board shaper used Cherry, Zebra, Maple, Curly Maple, Teak, Redwood, Pallaro, and Purple Heart Wood. Each surfboard was signed by the artist who created it. Surfboard "Wave" sets were sold at locations (full set for around $75) and briefly on the Trader Vic's online store. Individual glasses were later sold separately.
