The
Surf Blurb 5 Dec 2011
The men in "father of surfing" the retirement age have long since reached or almost at first glance they appear to be close to their fellow peers to differ, but there is a fascinating feature.:
They have dedicated their lives to surf.
In this documentation, they reflect her unique life and tell of the beginnings of the German wave riding. They identify themselves only by the shooting, that they are the ones who were "the first surfers in Germany and that there is not time before the sport and the associated way of life in Germany was ...
Only when the Sylt lifeguards among them the now 81-year-old Uwe wire (born 1927) in the mid 50s had their first bulky solid wood boards to save water, you could talk to law of surfing in Germany. They started the first surf in the North Sea trials, knowing that it was the sport to other continents for decades and it was in its original form in Polynesia before nearly 4,000 years.
Hooked on water and waves were beginning the 60 years, the somewhat younger colleagues by Uwe Jens Körner wire (born 1944), Falk Eitner (born 1942), Gaston Surtmann (born 1939), Dieter Behrens (born 1939) and his brother Uwe Behrens (born 1940). Day after day they amused themselves with the more playful not exactly ideal for surfing the DLRG rescue boards.
Only one report in
the former Reader's Digest, an advertisement or an article in Der Spiegel,
because the men disagree today, made the squad of young lifeguards aware
that surfing in America and Australia, but also in France had long since
become a mass phenomenon.
It wanted to see
with my own eyes and decided to go with the car 2000km to Biarritz in France.
Everyone was fascinated by the virus and surfing, from now on, plugged
in completely. Following this "trip was the first real" surfboard bought
and the history of surfing in the "good old Germany began. With self-shot
Super 8 original recordings and photos from this time, the film documents
the optimism of the first surf trip from Germany Sylt in a new exciting
world of surfing and wave riding shows the first experiments on the island.
These beginnings are marked by sympathetic naiveté, but also describe the first personal achievements and experiences and on the board. It comes from the film without explaining spokesman. Instead, a complex determined original sound collage of witnesses, such as Former windsurfing pro Jürgen Hönscheid and the protagonists themselves, the storyline.
In the course of
the film the men realize the importance of surfing in her life. At the
same time they need to realize that surfing inevitably come with age, reaching
its limits. Thus, the film documents not only the most fascinating water
sports in general and its philosophy, but also describes the growing old
in one of its most beautiful forms ...

James A. FitzPatrick
American documentary
film director. After completing training in the dramatic arts, he worked
for a while as a journalist. In 1925 he entered films and specialized throughout
his career in travel documentaries. Besides directing, he also wrote, produced,
and narrated many of his films. MGM distributed a series of his travel
films under the umbrella titles "Fitzpatrick Traveltalks" and "The Voice
of the Globe", as did Paramount as "Vistavision Visits." The hallmarks
of Fitzpatrick's films were Technicolor photography and stolidity.

Before the jetties
were built at the entrance to Newport Harbor, the surf in front of Corona
Del Mar was pretty good. The area was known as the "Waikiki of the west
coast". The Balboa side jetty was built using a railroad to bring in rocks
from inland, and is under construction when this film was made. The CDM
side jetty was constructed a few years later using rocks barged over from
Catalina Island.

February 20, 1965
A surfer by the
name of Duke Williams washes up on the shore and collapses, having spent
five days at sea on his surfboard. The girls fall for Duke, played by Denny
Miller, so Gilligan tries to learn how to surf by tying his feet to Duke's
surfboard. Despite their interest in the newcomer, Ginger and Mary Ann
panic when he makes a pass at each of them. To resolve the conflict, the
castaways pretend the girls are not available. Ginger is with the Professor
and Mary Ann is with Gilligan. So, Duke decides to leave the island and
manages to depart by catching a huge wave. The men sit around the radio,
anxiously listening to news of Duke's arrival in Hawaii. To their dismay,
Duke doesn't remember where he's been for the last two weeks, having hit
a rock and suffered amnesia.

guest host who would sing a song or three even if they weren't known as
a singer. The first 13 episodes had a segment where Brian Epstein would
introduce a hot group from London. There was also a number done by the
guest host and the guest performers called the Hullabaloo "Top Pop Medley",
a medley of the current hits that topped the charts. After the guest performers
sang their tunes, the final number would be performed on a hot night-club
type set and was referred to as "Hullabaloo A Go-Go".

Plot Summary
A "surfer bum","600
miles from a wave", is roaming the back-roads of the U.S. in his woody
wagon when it breaks down. His "rescuers" include a small town sheriff
who has a habit of his prisoners escaping and then being hunted down and
murdered by his bloodhounds. When the surfer is seen as a threat to report
the goings-on he is arrested and is next in line to "escape".
Not only does Caan
drive a classic, if well used, woody with sunroof, but he also has a quiver
of two surfboards hanging out the back.

Warren Miller was
born in Hollywood, Los Angeles, and as a young man he took up the hobbies
of skiing, surfing, and photography. At the age of 18, with the U.S. ten
months into World War II, he enlisted in the U.S. Navy and served in the
South Pacific.[1] Upon his discharge from the Navy in 1946 he bought his
first 8mm movie camera. He and a friend moved to Sun Valley, Idaho where
they camped in the parking lot of the Sun Valley ski resort, lived in a
teardrop trailer and earned money as ski instructors. In their free time,
they filmed each other skiing to critique and improve their ski techniques.
During the summers they shifted to the California coast where they filmed
each other surfing.
Hawaii became a state
on August 21, 1959.
RIDE THE WILD SURF 1964 Movie Trailer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIWqIBLzCeM
enwikipedia.org
Ride the Wild Surf
is romantic drama in the beach party style. It was filmed in 1963 and distributed
in 1964. Unlike most films in the genre, it is known for its exceptional
big wave surf footage – a common sight in surf movies of the time, but
a rarity in beach party films.[2] Likewise, the film has only one pop song
– the titular Jan & Dean track, which is heard once, at the end of
the film.
Surfers Mickey Dora, Greg Noll and Dick Ziker performed a large part of the surfing seen in the film.
Of the three surfer leads, raven-haired Peter Brown was made into a blonde by makeup artist Ben Lane (to match the hair of Brown’s surfing double – and to keep all three men from being brunettes), which required his girlfriend, the blonde Barbara Eden, to have auburn hair; likewise the dark-haired Shelley Fabares – who is paired with the dark-haired Fabian, became a Scandinavian blonde. Susan Hart’s black hair was sufficiently indifferent to male counterpart Tab Hunter’s that no change was required.
The stunt surfers
were given swim trunks that matched their movie star counterparts, except
for star James Mitchum, who was instead given trunks that replicated his
stunt double Greg Noll’s famous black & white "jailhouse stripe" boardshorts.
This is a compilation
of most of the surfing action footage from the film.
Although the film's
climax emphasised the danger and drama of Waimea Bay, most of the surfing
footage was shot in excellent conditions at Sunset Beach.
Starts with the
boys' surf-check at (Sunset Beach?) carpark, followed by a mass paddle-out.
