Step into Liquid

Step into Liquid

This documentary profiles surfers and surfing locations all over the world, including the monstrous waves of Oahu’s North Shore, the Gulf shores of Texas (where waves are created by oil supertankers), the ice-cold waters of Ireland, Santa Cruz, Costa Rica, the Cortez Banks, Da Nang in Vietnam, the tiny waves of Lake Michigan in Wisconsin and the tropics of Rapa Nui. More important than the diverse and often spectacular locations and waves, however, are the wide range of surfers that are profiled, challenging the stereotypes about the surfing counterculture. Running Time: 90 minutes. Release Date: 04/20/2004.

1 Star RIP OFF - DRM makes this title unplayable
This *was* an awesome DVD. I purchased it some time ago and got the 2 disc version with the WMV HD (high def) release. I watched it on my PC and it was truly amazing.. but now a year or so later and a new PC, it no longer works. You put the DVD in, and it tries to validate at syncast.com, which no longer exists! The DVD can not be viewed without the flippin DRM validation! WHAT A RIP OFF!!!!! I am so p*ssed off - they could at least provide some way of removing the validation requirement, but noooo, too greedy and too unethical to do that. This is why I refuse to buy any software with DRM that requires activation or limited installs. No wonder these companies are being sued.

5 Stars Surf
I like it a lot. I prefer shots from inside the waves. The interviews are with the best in the world. Even I know their names. I like it when the waves are so big they need a Jet Ski to pull the riders into the waves.

4 Stars wow
Awesome footage. Even if you’re not a fan of surfing this film is a great insight into the surfing world. I found myself enthralled up until the last 10 minutes or so, at which point I had had enough surfing for one sitting. I watched this with the inlaws, expecting them to be bored 10 minutes in, but they watched the whole thing!

Footage at Cortez Bank is the only thing that saves this movie. Would not recommend.
