Solar Bro: Jeremy Sherwin

Encinitas surfer and friend of Surfy Surfy, Jeremy Sherwin pictured above in 1991 with his first custom board, a team shape from Greg Sauritch and glassed at Moonlight Glassing. Jeremy saved up and paid for that board with small bills and coins.
Jeremy went on to become a professional surfer which requires doing airs like the one pictured above. After a nice career of traveling around the world surfing perfect waves he then became a surf coach and taught other groms how to do sick airs.
Now that it is year 2010 AD Jeremy has become Solar Bro. He has taken a job with Baker Electric, designing and selling residential solar systems. He writes, “A bit of perspective: In two DAYS our system produces enough electricity to power an average San Diego home for one MONTH.”

Way to be Sherwin, way to be!

    This week’s coal mine tragedy is a sobering reminder we need to go solar sooner than later.

    Jeremy, I hate to be a kill-joy…..but the black board in the last photo still needs some work…..and some wooden glass-on’s.

    Seriously Jeremy….VERY COOL stuff, all the way around.

    Thanks for the sharing those JP.
