The Involvement Dream | Patagonia


The Involvement Dream from Nathan Oldfield on Vimeo.
Patagonia Ambassador Belinda Baggs rides a surfboard designed in 1968 by fellow Patagonia Ambassador Wayne Lynch. This design came to Wayne in a dream and he called it the Involvement Model. It became the one board quiver that he rode around the world. Nearly forty five years later, Belinda explores what riding that surfboard feels like.

When we look back at that time, we can see that in a few little hotbeds of surfboard design around the globe, boards were getting shorter, outlines were getting curvier, rails were coming down in volume, fins were getting sleeker and moving forward. Wayne Lynch’s Involvement Model is a classic example of these kind of transition era boards.

So it’s interesting to me at least to see Belinda go back to this kind of transitional board four decades later and reinterpret it with a kind of postmodern retrospective, as a woman with her own rich heritage in Australian surfing; as a well-rounded quiver enthusiast familiar with both the longer & shorter ends of surfcraft; & of course as a world-class logger.

I hope you enjoy the film.

Natural Goods


Natural Goods from Marco Mucig on Vimeo.
“Natural Goods” is a documentary celebrating the ocean, wood and nature.

This short documentary is part of the series Ritratti di surf that Onde Nostre has produced to show the reality of surfers, shapers, artists and other personalities related to Italian surf culture. It tells the story of Luca Bressan, designer born by the Dolomites, with the dream of riding the Ocean waves. It’s a ‘cultural clash’ between forest and saltiness. Wood, in fact, has always been part of his cultural heritage, his horizon has always been obscured by trees and mountains, the scent of the forest is part of its natural imprinting: this is how the salt has met the balsa.

His idea of ​​building surfboards, living in the mountains, it might sound crazy, mostly because he has seen waves (ocean waves I mean) more times in pictures than in reality. But when Luca found out that madness was possible, the world became a different place.

Solo Surfboards is the project that came out of it: wooden surfboards, the design that supports nature. It's a new surfboard project, between design and art craft.

Luca was able to give shape to his passion customizing bikes, then building snowboards. The transition to surf shaping was natural for him. His background as a product designer is what makes his boards unique. In all fields innovators are those who can see things in a different point of view, trying to do things that no one has ever done before.

The portrait of Luca has been realized thanks to the support of SUN68. The clothing brand has always stood out for its support to projects with original, innovative and above all reflect the values ​​of freedom and simplicity of which the brand is, from its inception, a spokesman.

JIM KEAYS LIVES


JIM KEAYS LIVES from australian surfing resurrection on Vimeo.
During the week that Jim Keays ceased to dwell in the physical realm, we took a tryp to the desert fringes of Australia to commemorate his on-going spirit and to consider the infinite, The Hot Generation and The Masters Apprentices. We saw unusually large numbers of alien space-ships above the highway like hovering custard tarts, and the water was acyd clear mourning. The Messiah was on-fire. And some other blokes got some waves also.

Long live the king of Australian garage!

DUELING SINGLE FINS | DELPERO vs DUDLEY


DUELING SINGLE FINS | DELPERO vs DUDLEY from Jan Latussek on Vimeo.
Two riders, one session, the same waves, the same conditions, two very different surfing styles. The elegance of the dance of these two surfers edited together in a video that brings the best waves of the final of the Salinas Longboard Festival 2013.

Antoine Delpero and Elliot Dudley where consistent and powerful in their approach, to these waves. Salinas gave it´s best, good size and a decent period so these gentlemen could unfold their bag of tricks, and show us how a wave is read and ridden under pressure.

Dos Riders, una sesión, las mismas olas, las mismas condiciones y dos estilos de surf muy diferentes. La elegancia del baile de estos dos surfistas editada, cara a cara en un video que rescata las mejores olas de la final del invitacional de Salinas 2013

Antoine Delpero y Elliot Dudley fueron consistentes en su surf, y enérgicos en su enfoque de esa tiempo que duró la final. Salinas volvió a mostrar su mejor cara, con un swell de buen tamaño y periodo más que decente para que estos caballeros pudieran desplegar su colección de trucos y demostrarnos cómo se surfea bajo presión.

Born and raised in Orange County, California, Cycle Zombies is a collective of family and friends, immersed in a culture of waves, skateboards and motorcycles. It’s a lifestyle many try to embody but few have such a natural and honest approach to the culture and passion this brotherhood share.

Shot on location last winter in Huntington, California.
