Bing Feral Pigs, Surf A Pig, Pig Luau, and Blue Magazine
For those of you who missed Mike Black‘s Pig Luau, the October issue of Japan’s Blue Magazine will definitely bring you up to speed. Featuring anything and everything to do with pig shaped surfboards, no pig was left behind. Some of the Bing crew in attendance was the legend Bing Copeland, head shaper Matt Calvani, Margaret Calvani, Adam Cap, Mike Beckwith, and Mick Rodgers. Spot the Bing Feral Pig‘s in the photos below and keep your eye out for the 3’9″ Bing Piglet.

Missing Swell
I make up for it on the weekends. I wake up to their calls for me, like they couldn’t wait another second to be on me or they’d pass out. We pack them in the car and then I pass them off on my mom or Scott so I can sink into the water.
New Bing Surf Shop Is Now Open!
We are really excited to announce that the new Bing Surf Shop will be opening this weekend! The new location is at 974 N. Coast Highway 101, in Leucadia, CA. We are moving into the location of previous iconic surf shops ( Surfy Surfy / Longboard Grotto / Leucadia Surf and Ski ). Being that this is our 60th year building surfboards in California, it only makes sense to do it with a bang. To give you a little history about our shop / factory locations since 1959, we asked Bing Copeland to highlight some key dates that indicate the road to where we are today.
