the film clip that flipped the switch

By far the most influential film segment for me is from Andrew Kidman's "Litmus". Derek Hynd riding a 5'8 frye fish at J-bay, absolutely the most incredibly stylistic surfing I have seen. The cinematography, music and surfing all work so well together. The viewer is continually transfixed by the endless possibilities of the expressiveness of Derek's surfing. Big ups to this Kidman & Hynd collaboration.
