I am stoked to finally tell you guys about my latest wacky project, a real life Surfy Surfy surf shop.
We are moving into the former Longboard Grotto space, located in a historic building built in 1926, right on the coast highway in funky downtown Leucadia, California. My architecty type wife Yvonne is leading the building restoration. The surf shop will be 1200 sq feet of Surfy goodness, filled to the brim with all the groovy surfboards from Moonlight Glassing you've seen posted on Surfy Surfy.
As the building undergoes it's renovations we will slowly expand the shop.
I will keep you posted on the progress. Look for us to open by late winter/early spring 2010. You totally have to come to the opening night party.
Any questions shoot me an email at
Thanks! I owe it all to you fine folks for supporting Surfy Surfy.

That's great news! The local surf shop is certainly an endangered species around these parts, and there is no doubt, a large part of the soul of surfing. Good work on leading by example.
Way to go J.P. Congatulations from the Beals

right on...will be there.
Congratulations! Bold move. Can't wait to be a supporting customer.
all over it dude brother
Congrats, that's a great idea - was a bit of a cultural disaster to lose the Longboard Grotto (yes I'm being serious). Putting your surfboard art on display and up for sale there is a fantastic move - let's all be sure to patronize the place regularly.
rainy day fun. a new place for me to loiter.
Great!
Best of luck with the Surfy Surfy Surfshop!
Love the cool flyer you made!
Aloha
wow! its nice to know that I am shoppin at the new surfy surfy store and I didn't even know it yet! thanks for adding me to the postcard crew jp! you know I'll be there.
Team Breaks Selection is very stoked for the Surfy Surfy Surfshop crew (say that 10 times fast!). Fair winds and following seas for this new phase of the journey!
Congratulations!!! Best of luck to you.
Yeah JP! This is long overdue...quality, varity and soul all into one place. That's a refreshing change.
Congratulations, JP! We are excited for you. It's wonderful that this great old surf shop location will be your new artistic and soulful shop. 'Looking forward!
Aloha, Cher and Steve
Wow. You're really doing it, you crazy wiggler. Let me know if you're still looking for an otherwise unemployable shipping clerk who's read the classics — some of them twice.
Congrats and good luck!!!
Hi, JP. You probably don't remember me, but I remember your friendliness & willingness to take the time to answer some Bonzer questions and chat about my delaminated red 70s Sunset winged swallowtail. A glass job that lasted right into the next century! Bought used out of Ed Wright's shop on 101. No longer rideable, but of tremendous sentimental value to me. You and Leucadia are meant for each other. Are the glassing operations also moving to the shop, or do those stay in San Marcos?
I will be there! Mrs. B
That's awesome. I live right behind "the grotto," and have been anxiously watching the renovation. I can't wait to see what you make of it!
Can't wait JP! So stoked for you!!!
Congrats JP! Can't wait to drive clear to the 3rd Best Surf Town just to buy a bar of wax (though I'm sure I'd end up walking out with a board too!). Best wishes on the new venture!
