surfing in Africa
Australia
New Zealand and strange backwash waves in Tahiti.
Highlight: Discovering Cape Saint Francis
also known as ‘Bruce’s Beauties‘ in South Africa. Hynson and August rode seemingly endless
perfect right handers down the point. All the more important now that the wave no longer breaks as it did in the movie due to large scale development on the nearby dunes.
《無盡之夏》（The Endless Summer）（或譯為《漫長夏日》），1966年兩個來自加州的年輕人，羅伯特·奧古斯特（Robert August）和邁克·漢森（Mike Hynson），為了找到他們心目中完美的海浪而進行了壹次環球旅行。他們的足跡遍布夏威夷、西非直至澳大利亞。
最佳場景：兩個年輕人經過長途跋涉終於找到了完美的海浪。雖然很小，但相當完美，而且壹浪接壹浪，似乎永遠不會停息。導演布魯斯·布朗（Bruce Brown）本人在踩著沖浪板、保持平衡的同時，抱著攝像機拍下了45秒鐘的沖浪鏡頭。此外，壹些真正的沖浪選手也參與了該片的拍攝工作。
2. Morning of the Earth (1971)
On the first day
Uluwatu was o feet high. Falzon came back the next day with his ragtag crew and surfed
without legropes
eight to ten foot swells all day long. The Balinese
who had never seen surfing before
apparently watched in awe from the cliffs.
But the Uluwatu sequence was just one part of an extraordinary movie that documented the experimental
hippie-inspired era that surfing went through in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The best example was footage of Chris Brock at Angourie in New South Wales
who
in beeen surfs
lived in a tree house in the bush.
Highlight: The opening sequence of a golden backlit wave breaking in slow motion
with the title track playing in support. Perhaps the most famous opening of any surf movie.
2、《陸地的早晨》（Morning of the Earth），1971年
如果沒有噴氣式滑水車、衛星影像和湧浪預報的幫助，現在有多少沖浪題材的電影敢說自己發現了壹個完美的浪濤。
這部電影描述了沖浪者與自然和諧相處，它們遊走澳大利亞東北部海岸、巴厘島和夏威夷以找尋完美的海浪。
最佳場景：開場時沖浪者從金色背景的海浪中以慢動作沖進觀眾的視野，鏡頭逐步推進。也許這是所有沖浪題材電影中最有名的開頭。

《綠色鬣鱗蜥》（The Green Iguana），1992年
自從《陸地的早晨》（Morning of the Earth）上映後，沖浪成為壹個很有賣點的產品。沖浪運動電影攝影師傑克·麥考伊（Jack McCoy）試圖還原其基本面目——歐克西、盧克·艾根、芒戈·巴裏（Occy
Luke Egan
‘Munga’ Barry）等沖浪者在澳大利亞、、夏威夷和印度尼西亞乘風破浪。
《沖勁》（Momentum），1992年
很難相信電影制作新手泰勒·斯迪利（Taylor Steele）的作品在《綠色鬣鱗蜥》（The Green Iguana）上映的同年獲得突破性的成功。斯迪利在片中習慣性地避開了完美的海浪和異域風情。
《奇幻人生》（Stranger Than Fiction），2008年
這部影片可為盡善盡美。即使泰勒·斯迪利（Taylor Steele）最近的努力沒有像這份榜單中的其他影片壹樣成為經典，重要的是它展現了目前沖浪在哪裏。
