Ride

A smart eco-friendly film from the ex-pro, now founder of The Green Wave, Gordon Fontaine.

Fontaine has set up the UK epicentre for sustainable surf in the shape of the online store The Green Wave. This film is an excellent ‘doff of the cap’ to the sustainable surf that the shop promotes…

Gordon explains all…

“How often do you ride your bike to go surfing? We know that a lot of the times cycling is highly unpractical. You may not live close enough to your home spot or you simply want to go and score this secret spot miles away from where you live… And who could blame you?”

Not only riding your bike is free, it’s better for the environment, and your fitness

“But from time to time, cycling to your local to go and enjoy a fun little surf can be awesome. There’s a certain sense of fulfilment that takes you back to the basic things in life. The very idea of riding, and its association with freedom. No boundaries, no limits, just pure joy.

“And that’s not all. Not only riding your bike is free, it’s better for the environment, and your fitness!

“This is what we tried to capture here. This short film represents the start of a great collaboration between The Green Wave and Sky to Sea Media, and was a good opportunity to start tinkering with the drone as well… Look forward to some more!”
