Finally-Swell, Surfing and footage

Back in June, I wrote about putting together my first surf film.  Although I've filmed surfing before and put together a few montages, this was a whole new beast to me.  We've been waiting the entire summer for a good swell and good swell is exactly what we got this week.  I've never seen waves consistantly barrelling and as big as we had today.  Kevin, Dean, Chase and others met us at the Nags Head Fishing Pier at 6am and we got started immediately.  3 cameras, more tripods than needed and a crane and 11 people were on the session.  More to come from day 2.
