My 9'10" Bing Elevator is by far my most favorite longboard I have ever had.
A close second would be the foam board I learned to surf on.

Anyways, the Elevator has a slight step deck in the nose/tail and that means lifted noserides and clean turns. The board is a technical rider, but when you get the hang of it... you never want to ride another longboard! The Elevator is that good. Great job Chris and Matt, on making another classic creation.

The guys in the factory do an incredible job of making these longboards surf insane and look insane!! We are very grateful for all of you in the board building process. Bing surfboards would not be here today without all of you.

So from all us surfers that ride bing boards, we say Thank You!! And the last thing, I want to give a shout out to Paul Nett for helping Ryan and I further this vision / make it into a series.

Hope you enjoy! - Will Allen

Travel is all about getting somewhere else.

I started surfing when I was about 15 in Virginia Beach, and my first board was an old funboard from WRV that was about 7’6” and had glass on thrusters and an insane airbrush.

At the beginning, it was just an idea, but at the same time, a challenge I had set for myself some time ago. Honestly, I saw it as complicated since it was my first time traveling alone to Europe, and I was curious and nervous because I was literally going to another country. The only thing that reassured me was being able to speak Spanish over there. But, of course, none of this would have been possible without the support of the entire BAPU beachware team who encouraged me and gave me the motivation not to doubt myself and make this a fulfilled goal, we organized various activities while presenting the short film "El Gordo" to raise funds for this trip.
