Can’t wait to see this new #Flick — flickering on screen soon at a film fest near you... 🎥
~
We were honored to be asked to participate as part of the #ECOBOARD building team alongside @martinshapes & @tyler_warren — which provides a physical structure, as well as a narrative one for the film. Swipe Left for more about that.

And now that the movie poster has been done, the movie can’t be far behind — So stay tuned to @curtisbirch , and get ready to see the real story about the 1st Endless Summer ☀️

The #EndlessSummer, as we know it, began with one wild, around the world journey by Californian, Dick Metz. Metz’s stops to find surf (and other things) in Tahiti, Australia, Europe & Africa lead to a chance meeting with John Whitmore in 1959 on a #CapeTown, South Africa beach—an event that’d change surfing and surf culture forever. ———————————————————
Metz landed on the Western Cape, after thousands of miles of hitchhiking, and was taken in by Whitmore,  and family, on the back end of his ‘round the world’ tour (1958-1961). Upon returning home to Dana Point, California, he shared the news of this place and its potential for perfect surf with his friend & filmmaker Bruce Brown. The rest was, as they say, history as Bruce would return to #SouthAfrica to discover more surf breaks along this coastline. One near Jeffreys Bay, named CapeStFrancis, would set the stage for the pivotal scene in his iconic film #TheEndlessSummer — the break would be named “Bruce’s Beauties” in his honor. ————————————————————
