The Boardroom International Surfboard Show

September 28, 2012


Celebrate surf culture.  Highlight the past.  Focus on the future.

The Boardroom International Surfboard Show will take place on October 6 & 7, 2012 at the Del Mar Fairgrounds.  The Boardroom will have shaping exhibitions, laminating, live music, food, board demos, surf movies, a longboard skate zone, board swap, and much more.  Presented by US Blanks, the event will be honoring 4X World Champion Mark Richards in the Icons of Foam tribute.  The legendary MR, one of only two world champions to shape his own board, will be on hand to watch six of his contemporaries grind out a classic MR twin fin from the Free Ride era.

Bing Surfboards will be featuring a variety of their latest surfboards, including a collection of Bing Feral Pigs in the adjoining Surf-A-Pig booth.  So be sure to stop by, check out new and old creations, meet the legend himself, Bing Copeland, head shaper, Matt Calvani, and Surf-A-Pig blogmaster, Mike Black!

Travel is all about getting somewhere else. The journey, comically titled “the destination,” by some real masochists, feels more to me like a practical joke then a zen-buddha lesson in being present; a blur of drinking $9 Chardonnay while trying to stream Lego Batman across the isle and entertain a baby with a series of 10 second activities (tray table, crackers, seatbelt, headphones!).

When and where did you start surfing? Describe your first surfboard.

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.
