    I watch this video at least four times a month. The opening shot is the best footage with the perfect wave, surfer, style, and cameraman. Congratulations to all and the amazing wave.

    Really enjoyed this. The boat shots show the surfers skill at getting inside but the beach shots with the radio in the background looking through the long lens with foggy sea spray and shimmering wave was the most perfect representation of a summer beach day and could have been from 1970 to 2022.
    Magic. Thanks.

    thing at Deserts that compared with this were a few of the undocumented sessions that went down way inside at the Grower...
