Paris Olympics 2024, Men's Surfing: Shooting the Curl


I'm not really sure if this is still what this move is called, but it fits just the same.  The surfer will catch the start of the breaking wave and ride down through the curl of the waves as it crashes over their head.  With luck or skill, they will pop out the end of the curl for an exciting move on the waves.  I was wondering how the surfing was going to be held in Paris, but it isn't.  The Olympic surfers are all down in the rather beautiful French Polynesia on the island of Tahiti.  John John Florence (Team USA) had such a great ride that he is qualified into the the semi's without having to surf the quarterfinals.

This is a small 4x6 inch original watercolor painting that is available through my website at greigleach.com or you can simply follow the direct link at the end of the post to purchase the painting above. Since it is an original work of art, it is a first come first served reality. The work sells for $95 USD including shipping, but, yes, international shipping is both available and extra.
