Dino Andino got $100,000 to do that shot - money well spent
I adore surfing. Nothing tops the feeling of pulling into a wave and taking part in the constant battle against the inconstancy of the sea, and when you get the better of it, it's like riding pure nature. I loved the film for all the classical reasons -action, romance, script etc, but what made it a classic was that it showed surfing as it really is. The passion in Bodie's cry at the end when Utah handcuffs sums up the obsession you can get with surfing better than mere words; believe me, I know. Watching the film is a good start, but going out and doing it'll show you what I mean. It's a beautiful film.
