Surfing Waves

looking to get another surf film, whats your best film

What do you have already?

I used to watch the NALU Underground film a whole lot, I like it.. recently I've watched The September Sessions over and over.. It's also a good one.. makes me wish I could bail on my work and stuff and take a nice vacation.

downloaded shades of bali and sipping jetstreams off mini-nova, i'd recommend either very highly

my fave one is 'step into liquid' as its sorta like a documentry sort of thing. but then i have young guns 3...thats good. 'step into the realm' is another good one. 'somewhere anywhere everywhere' is also good.

i don't think that any films i have seen i don't like. but 'step into liquid' is deffo the best one.

I enjoyed 'Step Into Liquid' recently, covers lots of spots and great photogrpahy, the Cortez bank was amazing!

But for laugh value Blue Juice, great English film! More like a comedy filmed around surfing but Catherine Zeta Jones looks stunning! lol!

Step into liquid it is then, as for cheese value Blue crush ( the hollywood one) perve film, waves and ass

I've been thinking about Step Into Liquid too.. was curious about it. I may need to pick that up also.

I m trying to download step into liquid, but it's a quite rare file. Guess I m off to the dvd shop!

Kind of funny, but I really enjoyed "Surf's Up" with all the penguins and all. It's pretty funny, but it also reveals some truths about surfing. A couple of scenes, I almost teared up! Big Z is my hero!

haha. yeah I like that movie too.. then again, I have a bachelors degree in Animation.. hah. So it's kind of my thing to begin with. Good movie.. and I love that Kelly and Rob are the announcers. hah.

i didnt like step into liquid, thought it was corny and over produced

surfs up was cool tho

Fifty fifty or fitty fitty.

Good pre-surf motivation...

Just got Separate Volume yesterday, Im going to watch that today.. hopefully it's a good one too.

Surfs Up is the best!!! lol.

step into liquid was good too, i guess, it had some good shots... other than that is was sorta meh, although the big waves were pretty intense...

what step into liquid DID have was a pretty cool little feature on a surfboard shaping factory...

the thing i liked about step into liquid was real life, with big wave charging as well as some people ripping up smalller waves etc...but it gave you an inlook to surfing sorta thing. still think its the best

gotta keep it simple with endless summers, big wednesday! billabong odyssey and riding giants there the only ones worth watching!! oh and 'Laird' cos he is a legend!

has anyone seen this months carve? check out the crap 'calendar' that comes with it! such a waste of paper!

i gave up on carve months ago

I really enjoyed both Endless Summers, Step into Liquid (yeah the Cortez Bank segment was intense).

I enjoyed Blue Crush...definitely corny acting and such but hey, its a surfing movie.

I didn't care for Surf's Up too much (as a movie anyway). I liked the pro-cameo's and I really loved the animation of the waves, very realistic, but thought the movie was kinda lame.

Sipping Jetstreams is mega for it's filming and the Barbados section at the end is brill. Trilogy is great too...took me a few watches to get into it.

Watched it.. yeah, it was decent. Nothing spectacular, but it wasn't bad either. Some good surfing in it from people that aren't so well known/mainstream.

The extras after the credits are funny. The maker of the film is basically bashing on a lot of the surfers. He is saying it all in the joking way that a friend would be tearing on their friends, but it's funny to hear.
