CRYSTAL
VOYAGER
Filmed
By: George Greenough
Year of Production:
1973
Duration: 74 minutes
- When
this film first came out it was considered way ahead of it's time, even revolutionary.
- The shots from inside the tubes, of which
there were heaps in the flick, were considered by some to be state of the art,
and by others to be a waste of good film time.
- The
final sequence in the movie which was backed by Pink Floyd's Echoes was something
completely different in surf films.
- But
you'd expect that from Greenough who never fails to come up with something a bit
different.
- The majority of the film is spent
with Greenough, Australia's Nat Young and Richie West traveling the oceans, initially
in Greenough's motorised "Pod", then his sail boat, the "Morning
Light".
- This video is pre-professional
surfing, so there is plenty of time to enjoy uncrowded isolated perfection.

Of Production: 1998
Duration:
67 minutes
- How many surfers
would have believed that by 1998 longboarding would be so engrained in mainstream,
and that as we head into a new millennium, longboarding could look back to a glorious
past stretching nearly 100 years.
- This
video takes longboarding to a great new level with 67 minutes of non-stop action
in crystal clear waters around the world.
- Backing
music by The Reventlos, Tim Reid, The Insect Surfers and a host of others.
CAN'T
STEP TWICE (ON THE SAME PIECE OF OCEAN) 
Filmed
By: Alby Falzon
Year
of Production: 1992
Duration:
35 minutes
- Subtitled "A
Surfing Odyssey", this is an unusual little piece of video footage.
- The
title is very philosophical (Can't Step Twice On The Same Piece Of Water), but
there seems to be very little in the way of surfing and far too much time spent
on boobs, loin cloths, demonic balinese dancers and experimental photography.
- I
only paid about 4 bucks for it at a second-hand store, so it was okay at that
price.
