Bali video clip – Jose Marquina, Brad Hughes and Jake Stone

Cool video clip from Cam Danzey at the start of the year in Bali with Jose Marquina, Brad Hughes and Jake Stone. Jake Stone on fire at Canggu! Is it Balinese coffee that makes him surf like that ? Impressive !

Benplayer.com – New website and mind-blowing moving pictures

Ben Player has revamped his website at Benplayer.com and just released an absolutely mind-blowing video clip with Todd Barnes – a 15min. clip, all in HD, of his best waves on film in 2009.

Watch it here: http://www.benplayer.com/

Ben Player – TwoZeroZeroNine

I approached Todd Barnes – editor of the Thrash series – to edit this clip of my best waves from 2009 about six months ago. Todd’s reply was, ‘yeah mate, sweet. It should only take me about 2 weeks to edit.’

I wanted to make a free movie for the public, something that I would look at and make me feel proud.

Six months and about 101 phone calls later Todd had finished the project and when I saw the finished product I realised why it has taken so long. Every wave, every moment and every beat of the song makes me proud.

Hope you like this guys.

Thanks Todd.

Real. Nice. Moving. Pictures.

Our friend Greg Marguerie sent us this really nice little video clip, shot in Reunion island with a 7D camera. (Note the classy blur effect on some of the footage, same cool effect you get on a still shot – “tilt shifting effect”). It’s called “The Hunger of Spoiled Children”. Watch it here.

Winny wins the Arica Challenge

Winny won the Arica Challenge yesterday in good solid waves and nailed a 9.75 and a 10 in his heat to beat french hell man Amaury Lavernhe. Congrats Winny !

The contest was once again a great one to watch and the level of the riders was unbelievable. Ben Player, Winny, Hubb, Plc, Amaury… everyone shredding the El Gringo reef harder than ever.

You can watch the final day of competition right here: http://vimeo.com/11993514

Arica – IBA Tour – Contest Day 5

Once again the Arica challenge seems to be a total success with super good waves and a crazy bunch of competitors. Check the Day 5 recap on video here: http://vimeo.com/11910872. Hubb is a freak. How massive are those 2 manoeuvers ? Freaking huge. Hubb pushing the limits of the sport once again and probably the limits of the human body. How’s that landing in the flats ? 99% of humans would just break appart after such a massive landing heheh. Yeah Hubb!
