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!

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.
