That picture is of a statue of Duke Kahanamoku, a world famous surfer/swimmer. He is credited for bringing the sport of surfing to the mainland US as well as other countries. There are many statues of him, many with him standing in front of a longboard.

There is one of the statues on the cliffs right above Steamers Lane/Indicators in Santa Cruz. Didn't know there was more than one.

Actually, this one (in Santa Cruz) isn't Duke. Not sure who it is, but definitely not Duke. It is a statue just to "honor surfing" in general.
