HW,

Just saw your video--so valuable to see older stuff like that, seeing how they were surfing those slabs, etc. That was great of your dad to take those videos (let's hear it for mom, dads and girlfriends who often take about 90% of the surfing footage on the planet!). Great first project; I hope to see more.

Mutiny, it's your turn! There are a number of this who will be happy to help you out if you get stuck.

double cheers . :!: :!: :!:

thanks for the encouragement Scott. :)

Now I've learnt the transitions, cut out the crap, added the fades, remixed it with a litte Nick Cave and Led Zeppelin, timed the segments, syncopated the wipeouts...

This is the toilet bowl sequence revisited....

Hope you enjoy (I did)

What a Wonderful World (Communication Breakdown) :)

Those eternal optimists, Shane McGowen (burp) & Saint Nick crooning 'What a Wonderful World' to grainy, late 70's kneeboarding footage!
Nice.
Perhaps I'm not the only one able to reconcile kneeboarding with cheap cask wine!
But I think I get your intentions...
Good skills.
