The Raven by Bing Surfboards

January 06, 2014


Recently we’ve had some fun surf around here in San Diego. Chris Del Moro happened to be in town and was frothing on his new single-fin Raven Matt Calvani shaped up for him. So I went out with CDM and was able to grab some clips. CDM’s friends Kassia Meador and Colin Whitbread joined in and photographer Nick Lavecchia was visiting and shooting some epic images. Matt Calvani also made it down to test out a new shape he’s currently dubbing the California Pintail. Above is a short clip I made of one of Chris’s waves from this session for a 15 sec Instavid featuring the midlength Raven. If you like going fast down the line and carving hard sweeping turns this just might be the board for you.

The first Bing I bought was from Bing Surf Shop and it was the Continental model. I think it’s the best noserider in the world and works great for any long, lined up wave. I’ve been riding it for about two years. I also just bought a new Izzy Rider Type II it is amazing! It’s so fast and turns on a dime. This will be the board I ride in surf contests.

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.
