…so today I noticed about this movie
Anyone watched it?
What's with the "Coming Soon" stuff. Thought that this film was already out. There's another one called "Shapers" ( I think). Has Renny, Ole and Brewer. I think also Chuck Andrus and a couple of others. Gott Glassing has never been cleaner or neater looking than it was for that film as Ole picked up his finished product in the back of his classic Chevy PU.

"BoardRoom is a feature length documentary featuring the legends of early surfboard shaping. The evolution of the surfboard and materials was at hand and surfing was never the same."

"Our audience goes beyond today's surfer; it appeals to wide range of audiences. From those who rode and grew up in the 50s and 60s to those interested in the origins of the sport," says Markus Davids, Director.
"Producer Robert Jax notes "We realized early on that there was a much bigger story here than we had originally thought. It’s not just another surf film. It takes you back in time to the peak of California’s surf culture and tells the story of an unrivaled artistry. The interviews capture stories that have been waiting to be told for over 50 years."
Any word on this movie? I have searched ebay, amazon, and netflix and come up empty. I'd like to get my hands on a dvd copy - I'd trade my Thomas Campbell "The Present" in great shape!
They are touring film festivals and screening the movie across the west coast. My guess is that it will be available on DVD by the summer. I can’t wait to see it, i love surfing style documentaries.
