This was the first surfing movie I ever saw (besides Enless Summer) and was one of my big inspirations when I first started surfing. It does a great job of a lot of different aspects of surf culture around the globe. It's extremely accessisble because it looks at surfers from 6 to 60, men, women, canines, Hawaiians, haoles, Irish, cheeseheads, you name it. I had a friend who had never seen the ocean and after watching this movie he was ready to drive 20 hours to the ocean. This film does a great job of capturing the fun and the spirit of surfing.
