Dennis Martinez

One of the original godfathers of skateboarding, Dennis Martinez had it all until a downward spiral of drug use led to incarceration. That became a catalyst to turn his life around and help others. Today he operates the SD Training Center, a faith-based facility that offers housing, counseling services, and life skills workshops.

When he’s not packing barrels at Pipeline or Teahupoo, he’s on mission trips to Nicaragua with Surfers For Salvation, bringing school uniforms, clean water, and hope to kids in need.
