| Summary |
Breaking the mould of traditional documentary filmmaking, acclaimed director Stacy Peralta brings us this visually stunning and electrifying story about big wave surfing. This film uses its dynamic, cross-generational approach to profile the lives and times of the intrepid surfers who over the decades have dedicated themselves to finding and successfully challenging the biggest waves on earth. We meet Greg Noll, the pioneer, whose relentless push into Hawaii's big surf in the late 1950s earned him the nickname 'The Bull'. There's Jeff Clark, Northern California's lone frontiersman, And finally Hawaii's Laird Hamilton, the prototypical "extreme" surfer |
