Music is good, footage is good. It was somewhat hard to figure out where they were. We have clear scenery change, but no indicator to tell us where they really were except for the traditional Irish folk music that obviously indicated they were surfing Ireland. Director's commentary is witty and insightful and gives us perspective that few surf films give us and basically provides a good reason to watch it again.But as a film, come on, it's only about 45 minutes long

I've got it (DVD w/ the bonus soundtrack CD), and I love it!

It's a lot of straight up surfing footage, not much of a story (i.e. not like Step Into Liquid, Riding Giants or Blue Horizon). So, 45 mins. is actually a good length for it.
