Aloha Terry Martin
Today the surf community says good-bye and aloha to one of it’s legends. A shaper, craftsman, and innovator, Terry Martin’s career at Hobie Surfboards began in 1963, and he dedicated his life to shaping upwards of 70,000 surfboards for surfers all over the world. With the deepest respect and gratitude, we say “so long” to Mr. Martin.

An Alaskan Adventure with Anna
Bing rider Anna Gudauskas isn't one to sit still for too long. Travelling to remote waves in cold climates seems to be an addiction of sorts. Although the temps are below freezing, seeing waves peel off with no one around is enough to warm up her big smile. Check out the photos by Sarah Lee.
Rest in Peace: Hap Jacobs
The loss of legendary shaper Hap Jacobs has been another blow to the Bing Surfboards family. His early friendship with Bing Copeland, and his mentorship of Matt and Margaret Calvani helped pave the way for the resurgence of the Bing brand over the last 20 years. Matt + Margaret Calvani and Bing Copeland share their thoughts of his passing.
