Snapt 5, a movie made up of sections featuring your favourite free surfers, aerialists, hell men, all of which have sat on their best clips for up to a couple of years in order to save them specifically for this film, is almost here. It’s arguably the most hotly anticipated surf movie right now and creator Logan Dulien has confirmed that ‘Snapt 5 – The Final Cut’ will premiere on 2 August at Huntington Beach during the US Open of Surfing. With an Australia tour of the film to follow in September.
Under the Snapt banner, Logan has produced four movies and confirmed that Snapt 5 will be his last. The films have been an integral part of surf culture for many years and have played a pivotal role in elevating the careers of numerous professional surfers.
This edition of the Snapt series will feature parts from the likes of Mason Ho, Harry Bryant, Noa Deane, Jack Robinson, Taro Watanabe, Parker Coffin, Clay Marzo, Asher Pacey and more. For the first time there will also be a dedicated grom section.
When asked why this will be the last Snapt film, Logan replied: “Having these guys put away their best clips for a couple of years is such a huge ask in the social media age, especially when there is so much pressure from sponsors to be getting a certain amount of clicks and views. I put together Snapt for the love of surfing and I want to leave it all out on the court for this final film. I want to help these guys as much as I can and work hard to produce the best movie possible. I want to leave behind something special and I know that the longevity of these films will surpass any YouTube vlog or Instagram clip.”
