Shaper Studios presents ‘Shaper Sessions’ featuring Matt Calvani
Shaper Studios, the world’s first public surfboard workshop, will kick off a new event series named “Shaper Sessions” on September 30th, 2017 at our San Diego Flagship located in the neighborhood of North Park. This is a night for the entire surf community and surf enthusiasts to come out and watch live surfboard shaping by 3 of the world’s most talented shapers while enjoying live surf music and local craft beer.
Attendees will have the opportunity to bid on the 3 boards being shaped through a silent auction where all proceeds will benefit SurfAid, a non profit that helps to improve the health and well being of people living in isolated regions around the world. Each winner will get the chance to customize their new surfboard with the Shaper Studios team.
Matt Calvani, our Master Shaper will be introduced at the event at 5:30pm and will be shaping around 6:00pm. Live music by Millionaire Beach Bums and The Twin Fins starts around 6pm. Hope you can make it!

CALIFORNIA GOLD
LADY CRUZ
It was the allure of the California Coast in summer that reunited us. The days that stretched on well into the evening, a warmed Pacific Ocean where spring suits felt like enough and shimmering blue-green waves that tumbled onto shore so consistently they felt almost mechanical. Such lucid memories were enough for the three of us, who lived across the country, to reunite in San Diego and prepare for seven days of surfing twice a day up the coast with a couple of Bing Surfboards in tow. The board models we brought were the 9’6” Levitator, the 9’4” Continental and the 9’2” Pocket Knife.
WHAT A TRIP
At just 22 years old and hailing from a place not known for its surf quality, new Bing ambassador Trip Chandler has put together quite an impressive visual resume riding longboards. In between finishing up college courses you can either find this kid holding a single fin log or a fishing pole, but never without a big grin on his face.
