Coffin Ryder: A Shortstraw Short Film

This is a short film brought to you by the good folk at Shortstraw.

(About the coffin ride: In days of old when surfboards were heavy and difficult to turn, manoeuvre's were invented to add flair to the ride. A surfer could actually fall from trying to turn on a wave, and if they were lucky enough to land on their back on the deck of their surfboard; they could quickly improvise and by putting their hands in a mock prayer pose, lay claim to a 'legitimate' manoeuvre. Some surfers even made the coffin ride functional allowing them to get seriously tubed in seriously small surf.)

Camera: Christiaan Bailey
Edit: Nathan Oldfield
Surfer: Sage Joske
Shaper: Sean Wilde
Music: The Villainares

I like your direction of the slide. I hope you preserve this movement cause AU needs this medium of our slide. I hate the corperate driving Surf company's of Australia. Mick Fanning bites my balls.

Ok sorry for getting Negitive but we just need more of an equalibrium out in the water. Thrusters are not the rulersof the worldisall I'm saying.
