Last week San Diego welcomed in a couple of fun SW swells. The reports looked good for Wed and Thurs so the Bing Surfboards team packed up each morning and headed up to a favorite North San Diego point break. Bing Surfboards team members Mick Rodgers, James Parry and Lola Mignot were on hand to enjoy the long lines and warm water. Above are just a few frame grabs from the two sessions. Keep an eye out for the video edit coming soon. We hope you got some of the last swell.

Silver Spoon's Pilgrimage North
While so much of cold water surfing is filled with novelty surfs and hours warming up at coffee shops, this trip was different in that we scored nearly every single day for 10 days straight. That's pretty unheard of on Iceland's windy, rough and rugged coastline.
Artist Spotlight: Brian Bent
Brian is unique in everything he does; his surfing style, the boards he chooses to ride, the cars he drives, the clothes he wears, and his art is no exception. Blessed with an uncanny talent for creating art pieces that transfer the magical feeling of the glide and the essence of surfing to the canvas, the motion and flow in Brian's art is special and uniquely his own.
Bing + Surfing Wave Pools
With new wave pool parks opening up around the world, it's possible to get waves in places you wouldn't expect to. A few of our Bing family members have had the chance to get some Bing Surfboards under their feet at land locked wave parks you may be eager to surf. The parks actually produce waves that rival the quality of your local home break. The feedback from each family member can help you know what Bing to ride at a wave park near you.
