I liked this movie alot. It was filmed near Santa Cruz California an area I am familiar with. I liked the way the story was based on truth. The acting was good and the juxtaposition of the rich kid newbies chartering boats to get to the waves and Jay and the older classic surfers paddling out. The skill it takes to build up the muscles, breathcontrol and eye for where the wave would go was very interesting. And the morality involved as well.
