"The Coconut Technique" is a stylish portrait of modern longboarding with a look at both the progression and the classic essence of the sport. The film highlights the surfing of longboarding's most prolific characters, including Joel Tudor, Daize Shayne, Bonga Perkins, Dwayne Desoto, Beau Young and many more.
Hawaii is set as the exclusive background for this exploration of longboarding underneath the coconut tree filled horizon. From the original 35-pound Noseriders to late 70's era twin-fin fishes, this film depicts the versatility of the surfers and the essence of true wave riding.
Director, Dave Banquil, says of his film, "I wanted to encompass all that is longboarding, in my film, with a look at some of the different approaches and all the different surfboards in-between."
The film will be available mid-October at Digital Wunderland and surf shops everywhere.
