Blackwater (2004)
| Actors: |
Surf film director Tim Bonython has spent the last two years of his life making a documentary on the worlds most incredible surfing location called TEAHUPO’O. Hawaii was always the spot that was the big wave location of the world. Then only 15 years ago - people started to venture to a destination in the middle of the Pacific Ocean in Tahiti for the wave of their life,now known as the world heaviest wave. There is no doubt that Teahupo’o at the end of the road has the biggest barrel bar to be conquered by the worlds most daring surfers. BLACKWATER - is the documentary film, 2.5 years in the making/30 plus cameramen. Blackwater makes compulsive viewing.

This is a fantastic documentary of that most beautiful of waves, Teahupo'o. On softer days it's like a wall of water that just stands up over the shallow reef and then curls down on itself. On bad days it's a monster of warped power thundering down. This doco shows off this 'perfect wave' from every angle and interviews all who have ridden her. Wonderful!

Quite repetative if one is not a surfer ....and I'm not.
Mercifully short, however.

A great exposé into this monster surf spot. Only shame about the whole thing is the crowds. Paradise lost.
