Acting
Presenting the cream of the hottest surfing of the era with a fresh and imaginative approach. The best of Australia, Hawaii and secret spots in Bali and Indonesia.
This true classic from 1980 features the incredible surfing performances of Australia's Simon Anderson, Chris Byrne, Terry Fitzgerald, Wayne Lynch, Mark Warren, Col Smith and Mark Richards. Plus heavyweight Hawaii talent Dane Kealoha, Bobby Owens, Larry Bertlemann, Mark Liddell, Mark Foo, Buzzy Kerbox, Rory Russell, Reno Abellira and South Africa's Shaun Tomson. Fantasea opens with a powerful animated sequence that dissolves into one of Greenough's tube shots filmed from a camera mounted on his back and sets the mood for a full-on surfing epic covering Australia, South Africa and Hawaii.
In the early ‘70s, founding member of Australian surf magazine Tracks, Albert Falzon, began filming off the North Coast of New South Wales, Hawaii, and Indonesia. He set out to make a film “that was a reflection of the spirit of surfing at the time” and the end result, Morning of the Earth, proved its worth as a vital document of surf culture and a powerful nature film.
In the process of remastering Albert Falzon's 1972 classic film, Morning of the Earth, 90 minutes of never-before-seen 16mm camera original outtakes were unexpectedly unearthed. Because of the wealth of this material, a 38-minute film was produced. Getting back to where it all began, this artistic showcase of the “Lost Reels” paints a more complete picture of the filmmaker's journey, and reveals culturally, environmentally and socially significant details of a forgotten past. The film covers Australia, Bali and Hawaii, and is accompanied by an all original soundtrack.
An epic tale of the last of the long lost soul masters, charging it with the grace and style that made them legends. Rubberman Larry Bertlemann is at his peak. Nineteen year old Shaun Tomson controlling Off the Wall, Backdoor, and radical backside at Pipe, and monster New Zealand in the swell of 1974. Terry Fitzgerald sets V-Land on fire. Gerry Lopez and Rory Russel are annointed King and Prince of Pipeline, while the Aussies, bronzed and otherwise, dare assault their rule. Plus classic Malibu, Trestles, Baja, Blacks, and Honalua.
The first truly international surf movie in years. Beautifully photographed by surfers in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Hawaii, compares the surfing styles of 50 of the world's top surfers in 90 minutes of pure surfing energy.
The story of a free surfing dream that started with the evolution of the single fin surfboard. Starring Terry Fitzgerald and his extended surfing family enjoying classic waves over three and a half decades. The development and designs of HB surfboards built in the 70's stand the test of time when three originals are pulled out of the bag and taken to modern day Jeffreys Bay. Thirty years later those same boards draw lines and find speed like the day they were first launched. Cape St Francis is bigger than ever filmed providing a finale for an epic adventure through time.
