Mitch gets his Bing Surfboard restored by Steve Clark


Steve Clark ready to restore the old Bing


Mitch came across this old 60's Bing Surboard about 5 month ago

The condition of the board was a little "rough" to say the least.

Mitch dropped the board off with local surfboard shaper Steve Clark knowing that he is a master at doing these type of restorations.


Delamination, sun damage, numerous large dings, bubbled foam-this board needed alot of work.



Some of the past repair jobs had been done improperly, so pretty much a full restoration was required.



The best part about the board was the classic wood fin and wide redwood stringer.
Much like the rest of board, these also needed a bunch of work done.



Steve Clark does his magic again.

We couldn't believe our eyes when Steve dropped the board off about a week ago.




Everything including the incredible wood fin was fully restored to make the board look practically brand new.



We also love the way the blue contrasts with that great looking 1" wide redwood stringer









Besides these great restorations, Steve Clark also specializes in the construction of different wood surfboards such as the balsa big wave gun and the koa alaia pictured below.




Interested in some of Steve Clark's work?

Give him a call directly-he is one of the nicest (and talented) people we have ever met.
