It’s sensory overload with a pineapple twist.
Hawaii is where the worlds best go to get barrelled, go big and earn a rep’. From insane pits to impossible aerials, this film captures the best moments of the 2012/2013 season. Featuring raw snippets of north shore life and a soundtrack that swings from the palm trees, tropical porn is the next best thing to playing the ukulele while you pull in.

His films are quiet, beautiful and brimming with sacred purpose. Tim Winton, Acclaimed Australian Novelist
