 Rating:  - The tradition goes onThis is more than a surf flick; it's a real movie in the tradition of other Brown family members' work (Endless Summer, Step Into Liquid). I would put it into the travel/adventure genre and on the DVD there's a bonus documentary of the filming of the movie. Both would appeal to anyone who has been to Peru or is contemplating a trip there. It even includes the obligatory trip to Machu Picchu. If you're a surfer and want nothing but non-stop cutbacks, floaters, backside hacks and the occasional aerial, ... Read More Rating: - it's worth watchingWe watched this one as a family last night and enjoyed much of it. It was a solid effort and it carries the same beautiful vibe as the Endless Summer. Fun for the whole family, though it would take just a bit more for me to give it 5 stars (let's be realistic here). I saw it featured for the first time yesterday on the "Summer Picks" table at a local bookstore. I would have picked it up here if I hadn't had a gift card to get rid of. It's worth adding to your collection. So where's the soundtrack? Rating: - a different kind of surf videoThis video is a little different from the mainstream of the young guns series and whatnot. It goes into talking about the country of Peru itself and its history of the sport (which may surprise you). Of course there is amazing scenery and incredible beaches with no crowds that can just get you all sorts of excited, and then it shows a little more of the traveler/adventurer lifestyle of the surfers taking the trip. All and all, I really enjoy the video from the laid back music they play to ...

He argued that I couldn't very well visit California and not try to understand how important surfing is to many people in that state. I'm glad I listened. The documentary focuses on several small villages along the long Peruvian coastline, where people fish and body surf as a way of life. A group of US surfers from California and Hawaii join a professional Peruvian surfer, national ... Read More Rating: - A great feeling of the surfing -and not only surfing- culture and vibe in PerúPeel The Peru Project stands out as a very well depicted documentary of some of the several small villages on the long peruvian coastline, where fishing and wave surfing are part of the daily life among its people -men and women alike-, and how some expert US american surf sportsmen (from Hawaii and California) share their experiences in this land together with peruvian locals. It is really nice to see the always laidback and respectful north americans enjoying their stay at the sea and the cultural history ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
