  I love this film I grew up at the beach in New York out in the Hamptons and have been catching wave since I was a kid, body surfing first then boogie boards a little surfing and now stand up paddle boarding. As a Black Man who loves the water and all things ocean related I found my self alone on the water a lot I hope to see more young local kids start to surf this would be great to screen in the schools out here!I wish I could buy a board for every black youth that wants to try!
  Much Love Gene!

  I am so grateful to have watched this documentary. Completely inspiring, especially for one whom lives in an urban area on the East Coast. I am going to try it!

  Great documentary. Very informative and inspiring. Definitely made me want to give surfing a try.
  
  As an African, I was definitely shocked to learn that surfing was once part of our culture (at least in Ghana), especially given all of the water/ocean taboos in West African culture.

  Pity I'm unable to watch as I'm too international to be considered. This is how the pirates make money :-(

  I was so moved by this. Wonderfully and skillfully done. Kudos and I'm deeply gracious for this.

  Very interesting. They can know take this off the list of the often ridiculous statements "What black folks DON'T do" lol.

  Wow this was awesome, totally inspiring!!! I've wanted to wind surf out here in Alameda, CA for awhile now. This gives me so much more of an incentive to do so.
