Cannot recommend these guys enough. More than fair prices, quick turnaround and gave me their take on what actually needed done on my board (no upsell, ended up being less repair). Their work is second to none- my buddy had the same experience. THANK YOU guys. You have another customer for life & I’ll recommend to everyone. 🤙🏽

Come here if you want quality work done. Had 3 holes in the bottom of my board and they got it done in 24 hours. Flush with the board and looks great. Great pricing as well.

Sometimes I just punch my board so I have an excuse to go see Brian and the guys at DING KING 😁 Don’t trust your sled anywhere else, even if you live in La Jolla.

Brian and his crew have always been extremely knowledgeable and professional. Today they went above and beyond. I dropped my board off in the morning and it was ready by 1:00 in the afternoon…incredible service and as always, the repair was done perfectly.

Got a pretty brutal gash in the rail of my longboard that was outside my ability to repair. Found Ding King and took to them. Super friendly staff that did an amazing job - even color matching the repair. Pricing was great and they turned it around in just a couple of days. If you have a board repair you need done - don't overthink it, just bring it here, these guys will do a great job.

Ding Kings are the best, one of my boards had a crushed nose during shipping. These guys did such a fine job with the glassing and pigment match you could not tell it was ever damaged, pretty awesome!
