Best Surf Movies (i searched but got nothing useful)
I've got to think this has been asked many times, but I can't find any threads about surf movies. (?!)
Especially interested in great visuals and a mellow vibe, but beyond that I don't know...whatever you guys recommend!
It's a new thing for me so I don't know apples from oranges here.
Uh, I mean real stuff, obviously - one online list started with Point Break.
Interested in the beauty and feel of the sport, not competition, etc - though a lot of vids seem to be about comps.Last edited by Cliff Huckable; 10-19-2007 at 04:30 PM.

Thannks, Bud!
I just went out and got Endless Summer 2. They didn't have the original.
On the lookout for Wake-Up Call....and anything suggested by you kooks."Active management in bear markets tends to outperform.

I just saw shelter for the 1st time and thought it was pretty good. Not the best but not the worst.

Blue Horizon with my buddy Dave!
I think the Young Guns series have been really good even though its Quiksilver.
I really need to watch more vids as I really haven't seen that many.
Anyone have a good lead on where to download some?

First Chapter and Secret Machine are my favorites. Shelter isn't bad either.

Gotta go with Step Into Liquid. Would also recommend Riding Giants and Pipeline Masters.
Oh yeah, don't miss the Pipeline beatdown on YouTube.Last edited by stew130; 12-05-2007 at 10:43 PM.

The last issue of Surfer or Surfing (not sure which) asked the same question to about 10 pro surfers and they all had their list of favorites. Many movies were listed but the "Momentum" series had a lot of hits. "The Bruce Movie" is sweet and ranks high up my list.

+129301293102 for Endless Summer ... only the most prolific surf movie of all-time.
There are others, but I would just rather watch this one over and over and over.Ski edits | http://vimeo.com/user389737/videos

Blue Crush is the worlds best surf movie by far.... okay I'm kidding. Endless Summer is a bit dated, I orefer the second, but still enjoy it. Riding Giants has some sick footage... get a big screen!
Screw the net, Surf the backcountry!

I really liked Sprout. Lots of longboarding, if you're into that sort of thing.

I watched Shades of Bali a few times the past couple days and have really enjoyed it. It has a really mellow feel and some cool interviews.
