Easter Sunday was probably not the best day to try this, but we did. The First Coast Surf Film Festival went off without a hitch and we had a great time.
“Surfing Fifty States” was the feature film. Two young Australians, along with their piece-of-crap truck drove through the lower 48 and literally “surfed” every one. Not that being pulled by an ATV through a rice field in about 18 inches of water is really surfing, but it’s as close as they’ve seen in Arkansas, let me tell you. While not a true “surfing” film, it was a really cool documentary by surfers, who were spreading their Aussie humor from State to State…from surfing down hundreds of steps in St. Louis or down mountains of Potatoes in Idaho to surfing the Great Lakes to jumping in FRIGID water to “surf” down a waterfall in the Northeast it was pretty funny–if not a little painful at times.
