This fella gets my vote for biggest balls of the week. He baits the shark then gets it to tow him into a wave. Bloody cheek of the guy! Do ya think its a fake or what? The more I look at it the more real it looks. The bait looks a bit suspect though!
The writer, director and editor of this funny and informative movie about surfing is Dana Brown, son of Bruce Brown, whose Endless Summer is a classic surfing film. He takes us on a search to find what gives wave-riders today “the stoke” that keeps them doing what they do?
Brown discovers a remarkable selection of men, women, and children in his hunt for answers. There is young man who still rides his board after having had a crippling accident and a surfing fanatic who hasn’t missed a day in the water for more than 27 years. Brown’s quest discovers surfers who get their buzz riding the waves in the wake of supertankers in the Gulf of Mexico and the famous Malloy Brothers who ride the waves of Ireland’s fabled west coast and have managed to bring Catholic and Protestant kids together as they learn to surf.
In Tahiti, some of the finest women surfers on the planet risk life and limb against a wave with teeth while in Hawaii, surfers of all ages ride Pipeline’s spitting barrels on Oahu’s North Shore. A bunch of dedicated surfers even gather in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, to ride the waves of Lake Michigan. But the most extreme of all are a big wave crew that ride huge 20 meter plus waves 100 miles off of the coast of California.
Lots of extras with this DVD, including surf lessons, how to make a surfboard, surfing etiquette, surfing terms, designing a custom surfboard, and the full version of the video game “Kelly Slater’s Pro Surfer.” You also get a 3D flythrough of the films locations.
This movie gives you an understanding of the way surfers think. It puts you in the water where the action is. It’s a real invitation to “Step Into Liquid”.
…is what every novice can only dream of becoming - one of the best pro snowboarders in the world and one of the talented vert skaters in recent memory. Despite his super human powers, Shaun is just an average teenager who loves to ride, skate, surf and hang out.

My personal favorite at the moment is ‘Riding Giants’ featuring the fearless trio, Greg Noll, Jeff Clark, and Laird Hamilton.
This documentary style movie takes you through the history of Big Wave Riding.
Amazing early amateur footage of Oahu’s Makaha & Waimea Bay. A fantastic chapter on the ‘mind boggling’ Mavericks, Not for the fainthearted!

Have you ever wondered what it looks like inside of a barreling wave.
This fantastic video puts you there!
It gives you a surfers eye view of how it looks and almost how it feels (obviously you don’t get wet unless you watch it in the shower).
This is the best ‘inside a barrel’ video I’ve seen since George Greenough’s 70s movie ‘Crystal Voyager’ that also features a Pink Floyd sound track.
Go on get your hair wet!
Stephanie Gilmore takes the title for the second year running at PhilipIsland, Victoria earlier this year. Top quality ripping from Roxy Girls, Laura Enever, Sofia Mulanovich, Jess Miley-Dyer, Chelsea Georgeson and Serena Brooke on day 4 of the Roxy Womens Surfing Festival.
May be you’ve seen this before. I know I’ve watched it 30 times at least & I still can’t decide if it’s real or not. At first I thought it’s got to be a fake but the more I look at it the less I can see where the join is.
What do you think? Where is it?
These death dodgers have taken car surfing to the next level. Take a look at them ‘hotfootin’ down the highway. They say the young rich guys in Saudi will do anything to kill the boredom and this is pretty Extreme. They must be doing 100kph! Its also a good ad for the sandals…
This is a little of topic, well its a lot of topic but its very good.
If you’ve never seen Derren Brown in action before, I think you will like it.
The way he manipulates peoples minds is truly amazing. Exactly how much of it is rehearsed & includes stooges & props, who knows but its very impressive.
He says he doesn’t read peoples minds, but performs a mixture of magic, psychology, suggestion, showmanship and misdirection.
However you want to label it, his performances amaze and unnerve his audience. It really draws you in and makes you want more!
