I just wanted to post a link here to a short surf film that's hit me right between the eyes: probably the most beautiful surf film I've seen since ... well, in a very long time. Surfing is all about the feeling, and only a surfer knows that feeling. Take a few minutes to check out this story about a surfer who's been riding waves since 1948, (yes, that's right, 62 years), and still has more stoke than a blast furnace. The best thing about it? Not a company logo in sight.

rare archival footage of the good Captain?
"So if you want to kneeboard, find the hollowest waves you can, ride as short of a board as possible and go fast and deep. If you want to slip and slide, twist and jerk, go for air then stand up and do it. Let’s keep kneeboarding sacred."
