stories of guinness and big waves

my friend joel conroy did an interview for the beach reporter (our local news press) about shooting his film Waveriders and had some fun stories to share about my work on the project, here.

after making singlefin: yellow, tyler & i put together a short piece about his thoughts on the whole process. you can now check it out at korduroy.tv

passing the knowledge

i've had the pleasure of hangin' on the n. shore with my nephews conner & parker coffin along with friend, keith malloy. i just got a new camera so we decided to jump over, share some waves, shoot some stills and enjoy the aloha. the groms have been cutting their teeth at pipe and keith has been really generous passing down his knowledge. he's also bagged a few gems in the process. he is, the real deal.

you can keep up with the coffin brother antics at their new blog, here.

jb films & malloy team up for primo

chris malloy and i got a call from our friends in hawaii to cut a 15sec promo for primo beer. here's a first time look at our finished cut. we were stoked to get some epic archival footage to use. keep your eyes open for it on surfline over the next few months. man, this makes me want to go to hawaii or at least, drink a beer!

stoke

a friend passed me a stack of old surf films transferred to dvd. my new guilty pleasure between sessions is cracking a cold primo and watching some of this classic stuff. case in point, the "stoke" section of bill delaney's Surfers the Movie, Take 2. if you haven't seen this one, do yourself a favor and track it down. if not for the 80s neon, do it for the candid interviews and great film footage. too classic.
