Looking for Ins and Outs Film/Video Footage

[rororosasasa]

Dear Surfers,

I am an artist and for my work I am looking for film/video footage of surfers surfing a wave going away from the shore (backwash?), like in The Endless Summer at Ins and Outs, Tahiti. I was wondering if anyone here could help me with that. Are there other surf movies that have scenes like that?

Thank you so much in advance!

It's not ins and outs but different places

The Wedge has a pretty consistent backwash wave that skimboarders ride all the time. On big days a lot of surfers take off on it too. Just watch the Wedge videos on Youtube. I think you might find what you're looking for.

Thanks a lot for replying! That really helped me!

There are probably lots of footage of guys doing that. In Hawaii it is a common thing to run and try to jump into a just forming backwash to ride out a little ways. Once in about 50 or so times it can go pretty far out. I used to do this when I was younger. If you watch WSL coverage of surf meets on the North Shore of Oahu, you will see surfers doing this
