Hi. Sorry for the English. Mien deutsch ist sehr schlecht! I stumbled on this old forum post and was wondering if any of the users are still active here https://www.soul-surfers.de/forum/antwort/70-er-jahre-film-9/ I archive old surf films and there’s a few on the list I’m still looking for so was wondering if any of those users managed to find any films on that list. Hope this post is allowed and doesn’t break any rules. Here’s a film as a goodwill gesture…

Hey Dude, did you check The Surf Network dot com?

Till-aus-Kookhausen Hi, yes I have a sub to them for the time being. I’m also digitising any old surf vhs tapes I can find. I have a very large collection of surf films now but always looking for more!

Do you have an overview of all the films you have?
I guess there are some dudes here, who will be interested in that. Include myself...

SantaCruz Hi. Here’s a list, it’s not up to date. I’ve added lots more since then. But it’s a start.

What a huge collection it is. Amazing.

Endless Summer will be an all time favorite classic surf movie.
Do you prefer more movies with a story?

Oldsurfmagazines

SantaCruz these days yes I prefer surf films with a story to tell.

A great new one I saw recently is Point Of Change which is kinda a study of what happens to a place (in this case Nias) when surf tourism establishes itself.

Point Of Change looks pretty interesting.
Is there a way to watch it?

Auf dem YouTube Kanal von https://youtube.com/@surffilmarchive?si=L3RpzbRGLH3QdhRT laufen gerade restaurierte Surffilme aus Bali und G- Land aus den frühen 70ziger. Grandiose Aufnahmen. Muss eine tolle Zeit gewesen sein.

Point Of Change is currently doing the rounds in cinemas and Surf Film Festivals. Hopefully soon it will be on General Release.

@Oldsurfmagazines
Collecting the surf movies, is this a private project of you?

Oldsurfmagazines

SantaCruz yes. I’m trying to preserve all old surf films so they don’t become lost media.
