With the internet culture, young surfers will never understand how wonderful it was to keep waves secret. A lost art.

I grew up in Hawaii, and started surfing in 1971. Our small crew used to surf medium sized pipeline (we were 13 years old grommets), weekday mornings with no one out, perfect conditions. During the summer swells our break was China Walls on the south shore of Oahu. 1/4 mile long waves on the reef off the point. Perfect lefts. We told no one, and for 10 years it was paradise. Now, I look at the shitshow at those breaks and cannot believe it. Drones, jet skis, 150 guys at the take off zone thats only 50 yards wide. I’m happy those early pioneers have those memories. It was the most special time in my life.

I couldn't stop smiling while watching this. It's so cool to see all these people expressing, in such a nostalgic way, what this wave meant and still means to them. As a Moroccan, i learned so much I didn’t know before. Kudos to the production team, fantastic job!

My father, Rachid, used to tell me stories about surfing in Taghazout in the ’70s. With his friend Tarik, also a pilot, they would surf what was simply called La Pointe back then. He talked about the Australians who came from what felt like another world. Surfing there was a real expedition. At the time, surf gear was nearly impossible to find in Morocco, a couple of GIs in Kenitra would sell some gear but it was marginal. The Australians would sometimes sell their boards at the end of their trip to cover the cost of their flight home—this was often the only way locals could get a proper board. Because they were trainee pilots, my father and his friends had access to free plane tickets, which allowed them to travel and bring boards back from places like Brazil or the U.S. He always said they were more worried about the boards than about themselves—it was their most valuable possession. I also have a photo of my grandfather from the early ’60s—not in Taghazout, but in the town where he worked as director of Maroc Chimique. He’s posing by the sea, and in the background, you can clearly see a wave breaking in the distance. It’s funny to think that this was before anyone had even discovered it. Surfing had just started arriving in Morocco, so it’s likely no one realized that one of the world’s most beautiful waves was rolling in behind him. Again beautiful visuals and beautiful documentary, thank you for documenting what will be a part of Morocco’s history.

Yeah! Morocco. You rule. To all those who have experienced it. My memories live on. I surfed the planet. This is it! Thank you for this film. Back then I had no photographs or anything to show. I had my 6’7 Haut board from Santa Cruz and I had no idea I would end up running out of money stuck in the best place to surf ever. Wish I never left !! Every wave is in my mind and all the cool people down there in southern Morocco are amazing. The food, the culture, the respect and the endless perfection of waves. ❤. Love to all there. Great film. Great memories.

@Pompomgrenade
I'm making my plans for a trip there, when it's flat... I want to have some sardines and smoke some great local hash.. You keep the waves
@jamesd856
Now Now team.........Halala!!! One runs out of superlatives to describe your water, aerial drone, land and ski footage. And the detail you capture with the archival and background cultural stories. You set the benchmark for the industry currently, and fill the big footprints and innovation of the pioneers like George Greenough and Dan Merkle with your filming. And the surfing........! Respect!!! Always an uplifting and stoked experience watching one of your productions.
