Doug Walker’s epic creation has now been released on DVD, just in time for Christmas. So go on, buy your surfing buddy a nice new film to unwrap over the holidays.


Doug writes, In 2007 I attended a flea market in Los Angeles and discovered several boxes containing 30,000 black & white negatives. After spending over a year organizing this amazing collection, my journey began. I set out to find the photographers as well as the surfers that were captured in these special photographs. I spent 3 years researching and interviewing legends like Aaron Chang, Dan Merkel aka “Man Mountain”, & Bob Barbour. After hearing their stories, I realized that there was something much bigger that needed to be told.

Buy the film at his store.
