GREATEST SURF MOVIES OF ALL TIME
- Thread starter ReForest
- Start date
I dunno about the 80s or 70s but for me, there was Kelly Slater in Black and White (90s), and First Chapter (00s), and everything else. I enjoyed a shitload of everything else, but don't see the point in listing the lost, poor specimen, and McCoy catalogs. I also like Stranger Than Fiction a shitload specifically for the all one stance feature.
North Shore. So much classic dialogue. My friends and I still quote this regularly. We are idiots.
The searching for curren one was my bible. Wore that out.
I also liked the billabong Jack McCoy ones. Young occy and Egan and Margo are easy to enjoy.
Pump, Green Iguana, Bunyip Dreaming. There’s also one of the Desert Challenge in WA that had all the top guys at the time and pumping surf.

That reminds me, how have we gotten this far without mention of Point Break (OG) or Big Wednesday? Me and my buddies quote both regularly, we are also idiots.
Yes, forgot Filthy Habits. That was a fave. I still use some of those songs to pump me up to grom-era levels of froth before a surf. LOL
In terms of recent stuff JJF and Torren are top of the pile imo. Honorable mention to Ryan Burch in Psychic Migrations, probably the most impactful surfing for regular joes in a decade?
I'm probably in the minority, but I prefer watching the more documentary style surf films if I'm going to just sit down and watch the whole thing. One California Day, One Track Mind, Singlefin Yellow, Riding Giants (although it does feature Laird which is a distinct negative). Otherwise I'll just watch short films online. Those films are also easier to watch with people who aren't surfers (ie my wife).
