Movie Details
| Synopsis | An all-16mm tribute to surfing excellence, Kings of the Surfing Age captures the raw electricity and timeless style of the sport's modern masters. Shot exclusively on celluloid film, this documentary follows legendary talents Andy Irons, Kelly Slater, Tom Curren, Rob Machado, and Bobby Martinez as they demonstrate the artistry and power that defined surfing's golden era. The film's grainy aesthetic and rich colors perfectly complement the soulful approach of Curren, the competitive fire of Slater and Irons, Machado's fluid creativity, and Martinez's explosive technique. Globe-trotting from the sun-baked points of California to Australia's rugged coastlines and Tahiti's perfect barrels, the 16mm format brings an unmistakable warmth and authenticity to every location. More than a highlight reel, this is an intimate glimpse into the personalities, rivalries, and friendships that pushed surfing to unprecedented heights. The analog imperfections of the film medium mirror the human element of surfing itself-beautiful in its flaws and limitations, yet transcendent in its moments of perfection. Kings of the Surfing Age stands as both historical document and visual poem to a pivotal time when these five kings reigned supreme over their watery domain. |
