OTL in San Diego

Nope: not the OTL tourney at Fiesta Island.
Yep: off the lip - OTL - at Zapatisto.

JP captured by Slavin the other day

Final Chapter

Part two in a series of only two. Here's how JP's floater ended. I'm not sure if the barnz pony tail got in the way or if he was just it utter shock before blue impact. I will have to check with JP to see if there is an epilogue.

Floatersam and Jetsam

Here's a recent July sequence of Jean Paul in his backyard in La Jolla. Nice bottom turn into a floater/off-the-top. But wait........ who is this barney with the ponytail?!! Check back tomorrow for the final chapter and epilogue.

Have a good weekend.

Mid Week pick-me-up

Not much happening out there today, except lots of wind and chop.
Here's some shots from last month to get you thru the day.

Very nice sequence shot by our pal John Slavin.
Location: City of San Diego. Enjoy.

Lifestyle of JP

Yes, all those sticks are Murphy's: and please note that the one behind him has been put back together twice by our great friend and ally, Joe Roper. JP in his crib painting in his inimitable style preparing to go on another undercover mission at the reefs. Thanks Aaron, John Slavin, Lance Smith et. al. ; not necessarily in that order. You guys are the best support team on this coast or any other. Dennis out for now.
p.s. I couldn't do any of this without Chris Miller or Ed Lewis of The Leucadia Project.com. Check out the site! And that's an order y'all. Later. dm



Painting al fresco at the Cove - ooo la la

Finished art work put to the test.

Where Was I Monday?

I was in the water in Leucadia - but evidently we should have been in LJ!
JP in his backyard. Scoring yet again......

Did He Make It?

Yes he did!

Finally..........

This place only breaks a handful of times a year (if that).
But it finally did on Saturday January 23rd. And staying true to form, J.P. Marengo was on it - with his 9' Speed shape. This guy is on a serious roll.
Thanks for the photos John. Check out his work at johnslavin.com
