New Pocket Knife Model Ad Featuring Bing Rider Mele Saili
The new Pocket Knife Model is now in production, and soon to be available on our site and at Bing Surf Shop in Encinitas. As part of the release, we placed an ad in the local Encinitas Magazine featuring Mele Saili, the Bing rider that designed the Pocket Knife Model with the guidance of Master Shaper, Matt Calvani. The ad is a throwback inspired by the 60s ads that graced Surfer Magazine, the main source of surf inspo at the time ( RIP John Severson ). On June 24th, we will be hosting a board release party for the Pocket Knife Model. Save the date, we will posting more details soon!

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 Opens This Weekend!
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.
