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 Is Now Open!
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.

Sayonara to Summer
It's winter now. But here, next to the window, hovered over rising steam and enjoying a java aroma induced daze, I'm nearly sweating. The walk here was brisk, about 15 (C) below zero, a fine temp (with wind at your back and sun on your face) for a morning coffee pilgrimage.

Chasing Rosa By Lex Weinstein
Our Baja road trip mission was locked in and our group of female sliders was being hit with some serious challenges before the journey even began. Hurricane Rosa was a Category 4 and a San Diego local had gone missing only days before. Skeptics were doubtful, some even pulled out at the last minute. We were left with a band of brave souls ready for anything, and a five day window, no more, no less, to score at one of the most fickle spots on the peninsula.

Bare Coastline by Devon DeMint
The smell of sage brush and salt water. I want to name everything I love after California. The blues and the browns; oceans and seas of grass. The most living and dying colors right up next to each other and all over.
