I Love This Shot
Photo by Doug Wylie
Our friends over at the Murphy blog have been scoring some amazing photos of their team rider JP Marengo. JP is a La Jolla local who is a huge fan of big solid left barrels. Go check out their blog if you don't usually.
This photo landed in my inbox and I was blown away. I mean seriously does it get any better hen this? Such a classic shot by Doug Wylie. I love the contrast of the glassy water sucking off the reef about a foot away from his board and the wave as it breaks violently behind him. Looking at it you can feel the tension between the two. Unbelievable detail and perfect timing. Well done Doug and JP always stoked to see your tubes!

Carl Ekstrom's new logo. The story is that Pierce was filming Carl for an interview and he showed Pierce a check from Andy Warhol for a board Carl had made for him. Carl kept the check all these years as he loved the idea that Andy hand signed his name. Pierce's eyes lit up and said he should use it as his new logo.
Rainbow Fins. As usual inspiring as ever.
Korduroy.tv booth was a hit as usual.
Susan Wickstrand. Great work.

Manufacturing Stoke
Our friend Pierce Kavanagh of misfit pictures is making a documentary on sustainability in the surf industry called Manufacturing Stoke.
We first met Pierce at the Cardiff Classic Green Fair where after meeting a host of green surf companies had a spark of inspiration and the idea for this film was born.
Pierce, who recently graduated from film school went home that night with the idea for the film and proceeded to put a crew together to take on the task. Originally set to be a small web piece, the film suddenly took on a life of it's own and quickly gained attention from companies and personalities in the industry who had a thing or two to say about the subject. In the end there are some 30 plus interviews and 80 hours of film on the subject all of which have been kept under wraps as to who they all are and what they have said. It will be interesting to see how it all comes together and what these industry leaders have to say on such a pertinent subject.
As for the the trailer, which was released last night, it is a monumental step for Pierce and his indie crew Petra Kavanagh, Max Schmige, Geoffrey Smart and Sara Iyer who have been working nonstop for months now.
I personally can't wait to see how the project all comes together and to finally see who everyone is that was filmed and what was said.
Pierce, Petra, Max, Geoffrey, Sara congratulations my friends and good luck!

Sending Our Love To Japan
My sister lives in Japan with her husband and three kids. My Brother-in-law just happen to board a plane to the US the day before the quake and is now here while his family is there. I tough one for a loving father and husband.
So far so good for them but there are so many Japanese that are having a hard time. She sent me this link this morning about the Japanese and I was inspired. All she said in her email was "This is So True!". They are are model for us in deed.
If you have a moment each day take a minute and say to yourself, "I Love You Japan". Thoughts and words are powerful and especially those with messages of love. In times like these we can all feel a bit helpless but doing something so simple and sending a loving message can make a world of difference.
I Love You Japan.

New Environmental Art Show Coming to Town- Sacred Alters
From the mind of Eco Artist Rodney "Rodrigo" McCoubrey comes a group show about the things that make our lives worth living. For the show Rodney handpicked a group of local talent to make alters of things they feel are sacred in their lives. Each piece is to be made of at least 25% recycled materials from their own environment. We have created a blog for the project and will be posting the entries as they are completed so keep an eye on it to see what people come up with.
If you'd like to make your own Sacred Alter at home please do and send pictures of them to us and we'll post them here. The more the merrier. This is a healing subject and one that is great for everyone of all ages to participate in.
First up is Genie Huey and her piece titled "Dog". Genie is a Leucadia resident and an amazing artist. I was blown away by the piece. Enjoy

An Ode to the White Fence
Circa 1925 the famous White Fence was built on a stretch of bluff in this here Lecuadia-- a sacred spot known to it's locals for it's gift of extra ordinary aquatic fun. Our friend, eco artist and perfectionist of the white fence aquatic dance, Rodney Rodrigo McCoubrey was able to save a piece before it was torn down and make this keepsake. He keeps it with him while he works so that he is never too far away from the place he loves. To a water dwelling Lecuadian this is a treasure indeed.
