Ding All Surfing Products started in 1985 as a class project at Flagler College located in St. Augustine, Florida. Dale Christenson, founder, created the Surfboard repair kit line "DING ALL" , followed
other lines such as Sun Cure, Nose Cone and Surf Source. This project now "The Surf Source Inc.", no longer in St. Augustine but just up the road in Atlantic Beach Fl, serves both the Manufacturing and Retail sides of the surfing market.

The Surf Source has grown to become the largest Surfing Distributor on the US East Coast and serves over 250 products to the World surfing market.
