UK’s Elliot Dudley joins the Bing Team
"Over the holidays, Elliot Dudley and his family arrived in California for their holiday and came by our house to pick-up some boards that he had ordered. Little did he know, he was walking straight into the middle of our Bing Surfboards company holiday party and within minutes, jet-lagged and bleary-eyed, he had been introduced to Mike Hynson,Jim Phillips, Matt Calvani, Jon Wegener, and Chris Del Moro. What struck me as particularly fascinating during our first meeting with Elliot was his reaction to meeting these notable and legendary surfers and shapers. Not only did it mean that he had a tremendous respect for the history of surfing and surfboard-building, but for a guy with 2 European Longboard titles and a handful of British Championship titles as well, I was surprised to see someone of note himself so humble in the presence of this group.
Over the course of the next week, we were able to spend some time with Elliot and learn about his goals of becoming a grade school teacher, his homeland in Wales, his prolific career as a competitive surfer, his community service with the organization,Surfers Against Sewage, as well as his transition away from competition and back to his roots and love of single-fin longboards and alternative shortboards. It became apparent that this humble, mild-mannered and handsome young man would be an ideal ambassador for Bing Surfboards and we are both eager and excited to see what this next chapter in his surfing career holds. Welcome to the family Elliot!"

Cool Bikes and Finless Boards by Deus Bali
"The rainy season is well and truly upon us here on the islands of the Gods…but all that really means is the garden is getting greener and we spending more time indoors working on stuff, like this beauty. As the clouds unleashed their contents over shorelines and paddy-fields, the boys have been tucked away inside the bengkel, twisting wrenches and putting the finishing touches on this the latest iron ride to roll out of their carved wood doors."
"Chris Garrett is well known for his pretty left field approach to shaping boards. Subtle or some times not so subtle tweaks and twerks that add to performance and or handling are his M-O…however this time things went a little differently."

Low-cost shaping racks!
From wrecked bed frame into low-cost shaping racks! from pedro vieira on Vimeo.
Driftwood Collective posed itself a challenge:
To build a shaping rack without spending a penny... We failed! We had to expend 7 euros and 80 cents on screws. In the process we've destroyed one unused bed frame, two faulty wooden trestles and one camping mat.
It was worth the effort... see for yourself!

Kustomland Photography Journal
"This book has a great deal of information about the early Kustom car craze that flooded California in the mid 1950s. It has some rare photographs of early cruise spots and detailed shots from the cars that set the benchmark. These cars were the catalyst in starting this trend among youth culture! I like this rare 56' Plymouth Kustom with a Chevy grill.
Kustomrama have all the details."
Handplanes
"Made with sustainable wood and coated with plant based entropy bio resin, these are very environmentally sound planes that work really well.
Cyrus Sutton and I design and make the planes under the Surfcraft Cooperative logo. They also have a adjustable strap made by Micheal Disculpio up in Santa Cruz.
Patagonia in Cardiff, Mollusk in Venice, and Wetsand in Ventura are carrying them, or contact me (Jon Wegener) or Korduroy.tv to order a custom."
