THE INNER MOST LIMITS OF PURE FUN 
Filmed
By: George Greenough
Year of Production:
1970
Duration: 64 minutes
- Okay all you burnt-out hippies out there, dust off your
beads and bell-bottom wetsuits, 'cause this is a classic.
- With a backing track supplied by a psychedelic group from
the 60's called The Farm, this is a full-on surf flick, with nothing but classic
surfing.
- There is no voice-over of any description.
- In fact, it is almost like a home video of a bunch of
mates out having a surf adventure.
- Via colourful placards, the viewer is introduced to a
variety of surfers along the way, and there's not a contest singlet in sight.
- This was shot entirely in Australia, and at 64 minutes
is only fairly short, but it's too good to pass up.
- Towards the end you get a preview of the mind and direction
of George Greenough with a final sequence of shots from inside the tube -
promise of things to come.

Year of Production:
1968
Duration: 76 minutes
- The Golden Breed is a veritable who's who of surfing from
the late 60's.
- And yes, there's even a few Aussies thrown in for good
measure.
- As with most American films, this one starts off in Hawaii.
- The commentary is annoyingly American and all very star-spangled-banner.
- There's a lot of big wave action and big wave wipeouts,
but the Golden Breed are a tough lot of individuals, and it takes more than
a surfboard in the mouth to stop them.
- Not a bad video, except for the annoying commentary.

By: Paul Witzig
Year of Production:
1967
Duration: 75 minutes
- Featuring names like Russell Hughes, Kevin Brennan, Midget
Farrelly, Nat Young, the mayor of Byron Bay, Bob McTavish and the late Bobby
Brown, this video features some of the best in the uncrowded breaks of places
like Noosa Heads, Angourie and Crescent Head (ah, they were the days).
- There's a bit of international flavour with some classic
footage of France and of course, Hawaii, but for the most, the film covers
a wide area of Australia and Australian surfers.
Filmed
By: Chris Bystrom
Year
Of Production: 1993
Duration: 45 minutes
- At the start of BLAZING LONGBOARDS (The
Late) Chris Bystrom sits in front of a roaring fire stoking it with something
like lighter fluid.
- He jokes with the audience by saying that
if they paid good money to watch this movie then they were sadly ripped off.
- It was, of course, a joke, as the movie
itself was a classic.
- Unfortunately, the same couldn't be said
for this one.
- I don't know whether it was just my copy,
but the sound is abysmal and the vision looks like it has been grossly over-exposed.
- Too much time is spent dwelling on one
person at a time.
- It’s all very well watching the artistry
of Ray Gleave or Terry Sims; but not for ten straight minutes.
- If you still want to watch it, borrow
a mate’s copy.

through your collection for another flick to put on after this one finishes.
