Best Hours Of The Day

Leave the crush of modern life behind.
Steal away with two longboarders and enjoy the sweeping solitude of a classic California point break.
A genuine documentary, ‘Best Hours of the Day’ surfing video dvd explores the fine craft of surfing…and the spirit of those who ride the waves.
Steeped in the traditional style of the early surf films, this piece will carve a place in any ordinary surfer’s soul.
Less is more as filmmaker Rick Way takes a well-observed look at one fine day on the waves…
For all the ease Mike Gee and Landor Earll display on their longboards, Way has gone even further to explain surfing’s special mystique.
He puts the contest into a larger context with allusions to Hemingway and bullfighting as he helps give the layman a window on the ordinary surfer’s art—sizing up the waves from the shore, paddling through crashing surf, watching for sets ‘like fighter pilots scanning the sky’ and then dropping in ahead of a breaking wave.
