It looks like a flat sawn piece and the full width of the log. You have several cathedrals, lots of reversing grain, particularly down the center of the board. You’ve tried a light set with a very sharp blade. Sometime a board just can’t be planed. Try a card scraper and/or a cabinet scraper, that should do the trick.
