SURFING IN TOFINO SUMMER 2009 HD VIDEO ROUNDUP
Yes, I FINALLY had a chance last night to edit together the ridiculous amount of footage we had from multiple surf trips to Tofino this summer. Sadly, I didn’t have much footage from the spring and we haven’t started our fall and winter surf trips yet, so I thought it would be a good opportunity to combine all the summer footage into one nice tiny package with a bow on top.
So here we go, HD video footage featuring…
- Several surf trips to Tofino this summer with friends, and by ourselves
- Underwater housing footage (in-ocean shots)
- Long lens surf shots
- GoPro camera footage (camera attached to the board)
- Us reeling in crabs off the dock and cooking them
- A few different timelapses
- Us doing stupid stuff
- Allan, J, Venus, Trev, and myself
- Fantastic music from the Planet Smashers (thanks guys, how could I NOT use your song) …
Click the video above to view. Short vid, about 3 minutes. Safe for work.
It’s about 30 hours of footage rolled into one tiny video. You’ll also notice the underwater housing fogs up… yeah, we accidentally tore the new housing and tried to patch it up with tent glue. Then we used it in the ocean anyway. Well, it leaked. Haha. And uh, I kind of broke my Nikon. Soooooo, now I have to get it fixed.
So stupidity aside, let me know what you think!
Thanks for watching!

Hi Allie,
Loved the video. Great camera work, interesting stuff. I could defintely see quality of the shots. Camera work was as good as any Pro Snowboarding/Skiing video that I have seen.

Awesome video (as usual, geez! Just how many talents do you have in your toolkit?!) Allie! I like the fast paced timing of the cutting and under-cranked effect for some of the action shots…
I chuckle at how you guys dismount from the surfboards when the run is done – just tip over into the water.

Great video as always. Crabbing looks like a lot of fun. Mmmmm crabs.

Wow! That vid is so cool and the music fits it perfectly! Makes me want to go up…hey, you must have booked every long weekend this last summer!
I can sympathize with breaking camp in the rain, although I must admit I am in awe of the amount of gear you fit into your car!
Sorry about your Nikon. Hope you can get it fixed or replaced (hope it’s insured?)

Hey, great video… Looks like it was a lot of fun. I wish I was as lucky to live so close to the sea…

You broke your Nikon? Yikes! Did you utter a discouraging word?

Awesome awesome awesome!!! Loved the video and the music! Isn’t the GoPro great?!? I’ve got some BIG plans for my little GoPro this winter in Puerto Rico and I can’t wait! Oh and I heard the HD GoPro might come out by winter. I cracked up about the “freakin big seal” part. Can’t say I’ve ever left the water because of a big seal… but sharks, yes! Ha! Great job on the video!
