Wave Warriors IV

Holy Fuck. I watched this every fucking day as a grom. Solid power surfing shot in the epic 88/89 North Shore season starring
Pottz, Carroll, Archie, Sunny, Slater, Curren, Johnny-Boy, Dane Kealoha, Burkhart, Vince Mo'oloka and gratuitious tits and ass

Soundtrack by Hawaiian punk band Les Potts and the Wave Warriors.

Best bits:

Intro / North Shore 1:18
Backdoor / Johnny Boy + Kealoha 5:01
Justin Roberson (RIP) 9:00
Slater + Curren 16:00 (just turn down the homo music and play something else)
Pottz 31:00 (ditto music selection comment above)
Wipeouts 38:00
"The Rebels" 48:50 (Archie, Sunny, Egan)
Kaipo Jaquias 55:10

+ lots of random bits. Fletchers in Bali, Burkhart+Vince in G-land, Kalani Robb as a grom and a supporting cast of B-list 80s surf stars

Yep! Also has Surf Rat (Archy) and Psycho Stick (Dino Andino). Not to mention Rick Kane (Mike Latronic)

This video has all the North Shore and Point Break characters, which just elevates it into a whole other level of awesomeness. Plus check the roster of current/future world champs on hand: Curren, Carroll, Pottz, Ho, Garcia, Slater

...and it's the only video where I can watch a Kelly Slater segment and say "PFFFT... I can do that!".

Thanks for the link. Really enjoyed the surfing. The music, not so much. Well, I liked the homo music. :tongue:

It took me back in time to when we would cut up those Benjamin stickers "I Been jamin", do you remember that? And wearing bikini bottoms all up there. HAhaha.

Fast forward to 20:40 and problem solved, nothing but man music for the Fletcher segment. Haven't seen the entire vid but Christian's surfing put Kelly's segment to shame, including the music. Thanks for sharing, haven't seen it before.
