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.

An Interview with Christian Marcher of Progressive Surf Academy
You’d be hard pressed to find someone more stoked on surfing than our friend and local ripper Christian Marcher. Big boards, small boards, soft tops, surf mats, hand planes, you name it and this guy rides them all at a very elite level. The best part about Christian is that he is always the nicest guy in the water and he pushes the boundaries of what you think is possible on a surfboard every time he paddles out.
With over 30 years of surfing experience, Christian has built Progressive Surf Academy into one of the most well-respected surf schools anywhere on the West Coast. He and his team use a very unique approach that dives deep into ocean safety, technique, and ethics in the lineup that you don’t see anywhere else. Christian delivers a premium surf experience for all ages and has been a part of the Bing family for a few years, so we sat down to chat and learn a bit more about the man and his love for the ocean.
