Ding Dr Surfboard Repair

Matt Bettis has been hand shaping surfboards continuously since the late 1970's. After many boards shaped in his father's garage (Matt's dad was well known ding repairman and shaper, Kenny Bettis), Matt got his first real job in 1982 as a production shaper under the watchful eye of Mark McConnell at M&M surfboards in Fullerton, CA. He started shaping for Windansea Surfboards in 1987 and moved on to Robert August Surfboards around 1990, where he remained for 15 years, working ...out of the old Spanners glass shop in Huntington Beach. Over that period of time Matt estimates he has hand shaped something like 8,000 to 10,000 boards! Currently Matt is working out of Line Up Glassing in Huntington Beach CA. Matt still shapes for Windansea, but is also shaping under his own label "Bettis Surfboards", in addition Matt has introduced a new line of short boards under his "Resin Head Surfboards" label, which are available at Ding Dr. Surfshop in the heart of Huntington Beach, CA. #surfboard #surfshop #huntingtonbeach #surfcityusa #dingdr @ Ding Dr Surfboard Repair See more

This last run of swell has been keeping us busy. Here’s our boy @ryan_croteau getting in on the action somewhere between the pier and the other pier.

#tbt to @patchingcracks early days at the shop. When he first came on he still had 1 hair left. It’s definitely gone now, probably in someone’s repaired ding right now. For every hair we lose, 1000’s of stoked surfers get their shred sleds back in action. I guess it’s worth it we do it for so smiles and the shakas, but mostly for the beers !!

#mondaymotivation get your butts down here and collect your re-built shred sleds people. @ashtonsealegs

Great #huntingtonbeach weather scheduled for this #weekend so get your butts in the water ! #surfmoreworkless that’s our motto !! Except when you ding your boards, then we drop everything and go to work.

We can only imagine what kinda shape this guys board is gonna be in 2 seconds after this pic. We can tell you this, no matter how mangled and obliterated that nose is gonna be, we will most likely be able to put it back together. However, we do not condone this type of reckless and dangerous activity in any way...

Some parts of this colorful orange sup are the original orange. Other sections are our best shot at an affordable color match. Can you point out the spots that we did ? Maybe you can but it’s still a damn good job for the price ! #rattlecan #rattlecanpaintjob

Nothing to see here. Just me and a couple Loc #surfdogs kickin it on the corner. #downtown #HB #hb
