Aloha and Farewell John Severson
“I first met John Severson in 1960 when he came into my surf shop selling his new magazine ‘The Surfer’. In 1961 he designed this ad for me and in the next 15 years we placed 61 ads in his magazine. John became a close personal friend, he was a good guy, a good surfer and a great artist. Rest In Peace John. You will be missed.”

COMMUNITY
Since the opening of the first Bing shop in Leucadia in 2013, becoming a part of the local surf community has been our main goal. Over the years we’ve hosted dozens of events all centered around two things... our love for surfing and bringing the community together. Whether it’s a new board model release party, an art show, or a charitable event we have always found that keeping our gatherings open to the public and heavily attended by the local surf tribe is something you can’t put a price on.
BEACH DAZE
It goes without saying that everyone needs a break from reality sometimes. Luckily, for all of us here at Bing Surfboards that break comes in the form of mandatory surf days a few times a year. We spend our lives making or selling surfboards, so getting the chance to surf together is special on so many levels. Recently we had the chance to get the gang together and here’s how it went.
BACK AT IT!
This last weekend’s Boardroom Show reflected what was and what should be! The upbeat crowd filled the aisles early Saturday morning as exhibitors stood in their booths filled with the latest designs and technologies for furthering enjoyment of the wave riding experience.
