“Makes me really want to surf! Really peaceful, contemplative discussion by some experienced surfers on the effects and benefits of surfing. I’m inspired. Also does a nice job of showing how getting out on the water can positively affect the human spirit.

– Phil Engleman 

Any Given Morning is one of my favorite movies. I’m not referring to only surf movies, but all movies! As a surfer, I enjoy watching surfing movies, but off the lips, aerials and the like gets old after a while and frankly there just isn’t much substance to them. This movie, although it doesn’t star professional surfers, finds a way to tell a story of normal people finding purpose, developing relationships and creating a lifestyle around the ocean and sport of surfing, that is invigorating and inspiring. The movie does a great job of showing the many different faces of the ocean and nature across the span of several seasons. It beautifully shows how a spiritual connection is developed by those that spend time in the ocean as being part of somethingthat is awe inspiring. The simplest way I could describe it would be after watching with my wife, she said, “Now I get why this, (surfing) means so much to you.” It is definitely a movie to watch.
