  • tank u 4 taking dey time to go from dey uk to dey lr 2 tape dey country, my man, god should bless u

  • It is out of shame that I regret my own peoples' plunder and neglect of Liberia, the promised land. I, along with the entire black American population, owe Liberia for our ancestors' greed. This film is very nice (one of the most culturally aware surfer films I've seen in a while). Hopefully more Liberians learn to surf. The ocean is beautiful there.

  • good work hope you keep on the good work

  • Good Film. We have the waves and if we can learn more about the sport then we can compete in the near future.

  • that was a blessing , thankyou so much for sharing....

  • yeah mart! what a great short film. Looking forward to seeing the half hour version sometime. Looks like you had fun down there, Tom
