Zen and Zero

Zen and Zero runs a line somewhere between 'the far shore' and 'Fear and loathing in las vegas' as 6 Austrian surfers (yep Austria's landlocked) traveling from the usa down to Central America in search of their 'captain Zero' ..Surf writer Allan Weisbecker !
This DVD does sucessfully strip surfing back to the explorer/feral traveler roots that saw surfers become prolific wave finders throughout the 70's and 80's before surf camps and package tours.

What gives this film the extra drive to make it special is the narration that fits like a glove and a soundtrack thats inspired in delivering an end result that is a live vibrant feel despite a lack of pro surfers and spectacular surfing moves..

Personally i loved the great editing , sick camera angles some Zen ramblings and a glimpse of the surfing worlds greatest writer?!
How good is this dvd ? I've watched it 3 times in 9 days !
