    Somehow I never get tired of looking at this piece ... always reveals something new each time!

    One of my fav shots is the shot from the RC Chopper at 0:24, unbelievable amount of detail.

    I declare this my favorite surf video ever. Just sent to my three ocean-junkie nephews who will eat this up. You blew me away Vince. Please make more. Please make a skiing video without snowboarding. You would do great justice to old-school skiing by capturing the traditional folks that still do it right on two planks. I would be happy to "Volunteer" my services in any way to help you accomplish this. I just need the tiniest of excuses to get back west, especially to Steamboat (Skitown USA) where it looks to be an upcoming record year for powder dumps, again! Yeah Vincent!
  • Ben Ericson 2 years ago
    I don't know if Ocean junkies would love this. I don't think it has enough surfing to be considered a surfing video.
  • Victor Bouilly 1 year ago
    Wait for the full movie bro, Who Is Job. I guarantee ocean junkies will die watching it.

    Amazing. Will this be featured on "Who Is JOB?"? If so will it be released on Blue Ray?

    Music if anyone is interested is "Heaven Hammer" by Air, which is a remixed version of "Missing" by Beck. Featured on the album Guerolito.

  • Tom Guilmette plus 2 years ago
    this is insane. i always love vids with camera shots that seem impossible to capture. love the flyovers and shots from inside the wave! 120 FPS RED footage is sick.

    well done.
  •  
  • Josh Bowman 2 years ago
    This is your best work yet! Much, much more engaging than Reverie or Nocturne ^_^
    and yes, this deserves a 1080p download option, I want to watch it properly on my t.v.

    ... kudos to the cameramen that have been hired by vincent to get the water shots. They are the true heroes to me. They shouldn't be forgotten as they are the creators of some of the most stunning footage of that clip.

    no pun intended - I love Vincents work

    Stunning mate. Love the TSE shot at 0:46 - serene. Also the dude getting hammered at 1:29 is strangely beautiful. The most gnarly shot by far is the hand in the wall at 1:36. Amazing work as always - your diversity always impresses me.

  • WOW. This is really one of the best surf clips/videos long seen? Beautiful shots, and I love the wipe that comes when you watch it, almost like being in the water yourself.

    Which shots are taken with the 5d?
