Crystal Voyager
One of the most successful of surf movie films, Crystal Voyager was shot over two years in California and off the Australian East Coast.

The film chronicles surf legend George Greenough's quest to ride the perfect wave and his efforts to build a camera that can film it.

Crystal Voyager reaches giddy heights with its celebrated final 23 minutes as Greenough takes you into the hollow tube of a wave on the verge of breaking, the imagery taking on psychedelic proportions.
