Momentum is probably one of the best surf videos I own. It's well put together by well-known producer Taylor Steele and if anything gets you excited about going surfing. It features some of the best and most explosive surfers under 23 years old, like C.J. and Damien Hobgood, Mick Fanning, Andy Irons, Parko, Ben Bourgeois, the Malloys, and David Rastovich. Sequences are shot in Hawaii, Cali, Indo, Hossegor, France, Australia, South Africa and more that I can't even think of. Another cool feature of the movie is that it has three different soundtracks that can be selected. Apparently all the proceeds from the sales of this DVD go to the Jesse Billauer rehabilitation fund. Jesse Billauer is a California surfer who was paralyzed when a wave put him head first into a sandbar. He is now a quadriplegic and his family is forced with the reality of having to pay for the care and rehabilitation of his spinal cord injury. The estimated first year cost of caring for such an injury is $417,000...and the lifetime care is approximated at $1.35 million. When you shell out $29.95 for this DVD, know that the money is headed to a good cause and forget about complaining how expensive it is. Plus, the DVD is in fact worth the money as far as its entertainment value is concerned. The video can be found at www.poorspecimen.com.
