VIOLENT GRACE
A Film by Tom Boyle
BodyBoarders Video Magazine Series - Edition 9
Nature produces storms which decimate an area, while the result across the ocean is perfect surf. The waves themselves combine a merciless power with beauty
How can the same storm which destroys all in its path on one side of the world, create a swell of flawless crystal tubes thousands of miles away? How can a wave be threatening and ugly: yet breath-taking and beautiful all at once? How is it possible for a bodyboarder to launch violent maneuvers: yet perform them with style and grace?

The first twenty minutes was not really impressive. However after the first segments the footage improved. I really enjoyed the waves at "the Box" in Australia. I also enjoyed the segment with Brian Wise and section on the waves at the North Shore.
