Seea and Bing have been friends forever — sharing several team riders and countless weekend family beach days together — and we were stoked to finally have a party to celebrate Seea being sold at the Bing Surf Shop in Encinitas!
Southern California got some much-needed rain in the morning, and the clouds cleared with sunny skies just in time for the party people trickling in to the Bing Surf Shop at 5pm on Friday, May 15. It was incredible to meet new faces and watch their stoke, eyes glued to the TV while the "Seea in Italy" film by Onde Nostre, "Intimasea" by Nathan Oldfield, and 2015 collection film by Michael Weybret played all night. Think about looking behind you at everyone's faces in a movie theater — super cool!
Seeababe Mele Saili had her paintings and drawings displayed, met with art lovers and sold a few pieces too! Check out special T-shirts for sale only in store at the Bing Surf Shop featuring Mele Saili's artwork. Big thanks to everyone who came out to toast glasses filled with ZIOBAFFA with us, and to the folks at Bing for their hospitality.
