Riding Bing Surfboards makes me feel like I have more style and grace than I do! Talking to Matt Calvani, owner and head shaper at Bing Surfboards, it's easy to understand why. An enormous amount of thought, testing and experience goes into Matt's shapes.
I was fortunate to catch up with Matt and hear about his favourite surfboard, the Bing Dharma 2.0, and the long, not-so-straightforward journey Matt took to get this new Dharma - "the most versatile surfboard in the Bing range" - right.
Hopefully, next time I'm in California, I'll give a Bing Dharma 2.0 a go to be able to compare it to the original Bing Dharma (Full Review Here: bit.ly/BingDharmaReview).
Have you ridden a Bing Dharma - original or the 2.0?

This video is helpful and informative as I will be writing Bing surfboard reviews tomorrow.
please do a review of the speed square!
Excellent review!!
Danny Doyle Thanks Danny! I dig this, too. It was awesome to hear Matt talk about the Dharma 2.0 and the trials and tribulations to get it right
Absolutely! Gives me ideas and helps me eliminate others!
Hi
Could you please review the vampirate inflatable mattress? I hear it's super fast and am looking at buying one
Thanks
thecouchman2112 Hey there, it looks awesome! Vampirate make some cool shapes. Let them know you would like to see their boards featured on the show!All the best,Benny
Is that a volan patch our just a deck patch? And how big of a difference in the ride does it make? I've always favored heavier glassing because I'm a bigger guy, do I've never ridden a "competition"our "ultra light" glassing schedule.
Arthur Cho Hey Arthur, I know Matt adds extra glass to the decks of all of his boards - but they never feel heavy, just solid. I'm a bigger guy, too, and have not had any issues with the Bing's I've owned.Cheers,Benny
Thanks man! Have you ever looked into coil surfboards? They are based out of Florida.
Arthur Cho I have indeed - I tried to line up a Coil Megamind a while back but it became too difficult to get one to San Diego. Have you ridden a Coil? What do you think?
CompareSurfboards.com I love mine! There are two for sale on craigslist in San Diego! The guy selling them are awesome hrs a good dude and lives in Encinitas. They are super durable and light. You should get one :-P
Arthur Cho Would love to - back in Oz now :(
Hi Benny,
Just gauging your thoughts between the Bing Dharma 2.0 and the hypto krypto as your everyday driver. Currently ride a 5'8 31L Hypto. Just trying to fins out which board has the lowest range and highest range + greatest overall range. Surf mainly beach breaks in Perth, Western Australia.
Cheers
dammit. Now I want to buy one of these!!!!!!!
1k1ngst0n I felt the same after watching Matt film this! I wasn't sold on the Dharma 2.0 - mostly because I feel strongly about the original Dharma and thought it shouldn't borrow the name - but after hearing Matt talk through it, I am sold on the 2.0
CompareSurfboards.com I just ordered a Dharma 2.0 and I blame you Benny.
1k1ngst0n I accept full responsibility
@user/1k1ngst0n! Please let me know how it goes for you - I didn't get to ride the 2.0 :(
@@1k1ngst0n how was that thing Kingston? Ze dharma 2.0 you probably snapped it by now
Honestly I like the original dharma more than the dharma 2.0
In theory? Or you’ve ridden both versions?
@@MrRofi-jp7mo I ridden both however I take the dharma 1 out way more (since I like it more)
@@kingnut6855 sweet appreciate the swift reply - will demo one next week.
@@MrRofi-jp7mo your welcome, I would love to know Your opinion after you demo the dharma
