Well here's an intense little spectacle.

Allow filmmaker Shane Fletcher to work your adrenal glands with this fit-inducing mix of beats and single-move clips from Chippa, Lee Wilson, and Robbie Rickard.

Headphones in and this blew me away. Music and footage. What board is that striped shirt guy riding in the right hand tubes? Looks like a lot of entry rocker snub nose 2+1 set up? Your blurb doesn’t do this film justice- I thought it was outstanding.

Me too. Unlike some, I don't mind slo-mo, especially when it highlights the nuance not only of the surfer but the wave too.

IMO I thought it was really well shot with a great blend of old school tube riding and power surfing with new school progression.

If that vid didn't make you want to go surfing, I don't know what will. Loved it.

Great vid.

Water shots were all time.

That quad seemed to have the perfect drag effect for those barrels stuck right in the spot.

Look...I had to check a couple of times as I didn't believe it...but that board doesn't seem to be a quad...it's well...two fins like a quad on one side and one fin (in a twin fin position on the other...asymmetric fins. That's a new one for me. (best seen at about 8.15secs)

Erm....yep.

....And I would've been guessing itd be the other way round with the quad setup stuck in he wall.
Cannot argue with results.
