fela kuti+surf+social responsibility

this is perhaps one of the most important contemporary surf films



surfed DP with with Scotty on the logs. knee high and perfect at the cove. fade right and then swing left, cross step to the centre and arch. step back and turn towards the pocket and back to centre and trim to the inside. kick out in six inches of sand and stroke back outside. peacefully perfect. give thanks for health and wealth.

Can't go wrong with Fela and olas.

I've said this before but when considering perfect surf soundtrack, I've always thought Fela was the perfect musician for an endless pointbreak... Can't wait to see that flick...
