Plot: In this youthful surfing adventure, a hot young surfer wins a wave-tank contest in his native Arizona and decides to temporarily abandon his studies to hit the fantastic waves of the Hawaiian North shore pipeline. Once there, he is derided by the other surfers because nobody believes that a boy from the desert could possibly know anything about surfing real waves. Fortunately, an aging hippie (and supremo surfer), who designs boards for a living, believes in him and so teaches him the ropes. While learning about the sea and preparing for an international surfing competition, the boy also learns valuable lessons about life and love. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

A Surfin' Classic!!
Added 8/5/2009

Quotes from this movie are golden! Definately a 'B' movie but it is a great 'B' movie. Cheezy and week but entertaining and fun. It grows on you so watch it more than once. Possibly learn a few new terms and watch some great surfing. Laird Hamilton and Gerry Lopez can be seen in unpredictable roles. And Turtle, you gotta luv him!!! If you surf and you have not seen this it is time to spend your money wisely & learn some classic lines that will use the rest of your life!!

A cult classic
Added 5/27/2009

O.K. so it's a goofy unrealistic surf movie. If you're looking for serious don't bother. But if you're looking for fun, cheesy, & over the top this is your movie. I know several surfers & we love to laugh at this one and always baulk at those who haven't seen it & force them into a chair. Heck it has Occy in it! A great cult classic in my circle (besides the fact that Rick Cane looks like my friends brother LOL) we can easily quote lines...but "nobody listens to Turtle."

80's Surf tuff enough
Added 2/9/2009

I saw this movie a couple of times growing up and liked it. I have to admit i was really excited when i found it on dvd and a little nervous about the acting from the 80's. This movie is GREAT and totally what i expected! It is really good to watch it all come together for the little Howlly boy from AZ. The surfing is great in this movie and the acting is good as well. The story is classic and you are sure to enjoy this insight to living the dream as it comes together for this young surfer in the North Shore.
