- “Looking for the waves in the Arctic isn’t easy,” announces nomadic wave-hunting videographer Ben Weiland in the trailer for a new winter surf adventure, “A Race Against Time.” For those in the know, it’s likely the understatement of the year.
Looking for waves in that region involves all the complications of a typical surf-expedition-journeys to remote areas, fickle conditions, etc.-multiplied by a rough estimate of one thousand. What’s more: there’s not exactly some comprehensive “Surfing California”-esque equivalent for the Nordic islands (get on it, Bank Wright!).
Accompanied by photographer Elli Thor Magnusson and OBX-based combo-king, Brett Barley, Weiland and crew traverse the far reaches of of the Artic, rolling the dice on the opportunity to score one potentially promising swell. And judging by the shimmering blue tubes shown in the trailer above, from our perch here-sitting in front of a laptop in a climate controlled environment-hey, looks worth the trouble!

Surfer Films are always so peaceful. I don’t Surf but I really enjoy them.
I love the honest approach to the unknown, work and adventure of surf travel. And Brett Barley is the man!
Love watching people do stuff I would not do...great adventure!
Wonderful film!
Colours. 🌈. Brilliant 💖
Brett is so good!
Brett is soo under rated. Dude is versatile
This video is much more humble, respectful and authentic than the "Is This The Best Right Point In The World?" video. Good stuff lads.
love watching videos on the unknown waves out there, crazy that there are still so many unknown spots
This is the real life. I really hope anyone that is able to do this really, really, really appreciates it for the rest of us that can't.
I will one day make it to two of these waves!
Just when you think you’ve seen it all an incredible video like this comes out. Surfing will always be new and exciting

I'm guessing this spot will never get crowded, and filled with hipster coffee shops and hostels. Just Kidding 😜 Awesome film 🎖️🎬😄
So beautiful totally worth being in cold water
Good work nice seeing seiko investing in the surf community
Gregory Saunders - It's ABOUT TIME...
Well done trail blazers.
素晴らしい！！
loved the video. seems like it was all shot in log and forgotten to be colored though.
Nice. Curious what you wear in/on the water to stay warm?
Excellent video! Always an adventure with @Brett Barley. What's the song at the end?
Yo! It's a song called "Colors" from our forthcoming (in a few months) EP. Have a few other singles out now, stay tuned! 🙌🤙🏻
"The arctic"? I don't want to hop the spots you worked to hard to find. But general curiosity makes me want to know a bit more. Like maybe the nation. Although Iceland is the likely location.
Michael Burk + IKR - Go ahead and give Longitudes and Latitudes - that spot will NEVER get crowded. I'd rather hunt for mine in more hospitable locations, Tropical and Sub-Tropical.
Obviously Iceland. I doubt there would be a huge rush even if they would give gps-coordinates.
Yeah, been to some of those spots. Even in autumn it is very, very cold.
Bet
Most likely Svalbard. The description says the Nordic Islands
Looks a little chilly...
how all surf trips used to be ,, all you new most of the time before you went was ,,, yeah this time of yr is supposed to be the best ,, like it or not ,,, those were the daze
Holy fuck those where deep barrels.
All of that waiting and travel for a 5 minute film?!
I found for you a place when there is no snow ore rin only hot weather and waves all the yer (Morocco)
what's the music??
Heya! Tis us, a song called "Colors" from our forthcoming (in a few months) EP. Have a few other singles out now, stay tuned! 🙌🤙🏻
dope @@TalkTimeMusic
Is that a wet suit or a dry suit?
Dry suit....
Like surfing in Washington.. only better
:)
So, do you still freeze your ass off with that wet suit on? I don't know, but I would think you couldn't stay in the water very long. Am I right?

Being cold AND wet is a shitty predicament ! Did Brett just leave the warmth of the North Shore for this trip? Looks so bleak and desolate out there..real soldiers all of them..do a video on the equipment needed to make a COLD surf trip work like how do you get wetsuits to dry and wearable when it's snowing out!?
Shitty dam cold and freezing waters not good , I chicken out and not finished watching got cold just watching from the tropics..insane masochists..:)
yawn
The Artic ? This is garbage.
Could you guys please stop acting like you’re storming the beaches of Normandy please
