Likely the best surfing movie I've watched not named Endless Summer. No silly musical numbers either, unlike the trope of the beach 60's phase. Fabian, Barbara Eden, James Mitchum (Robert's son).
Excellent in-water coverage of characters banter, great stunt surfers, & while the off-beach stuff is 90210 calibre, at least it's not raunchy or lazy.
It was actual surfing footage of a terrific weather/wave pattern over a previous winter that impressed, & they merely scripted around that footage for character/dramatic purposes. That's pretty cool actually, & why the in-water stuff shines.
