Facing Monsters with Kerby and Cortney Brown
Facing Monsters, winner of the 2022 Best Documentary and Best Cinematography in the feature category, just dropped online. Kerby and Cortney Brown joined us in Florida for a showing and a hurricane. We holed up in NSB, let the storm pass, paddled out, and had this chat. Find out what’s behind Kerby’s raw enthusiasm for slabbing piles of water pulling from shallow to dry surfaces. Hellman takes on a new meaning, especially in the face of parenthood. It’s complicated.

Tupat with Patrick Eichstaedt
Patrick Eichstaedt has been shooting surfers since his teenage years and had enough foresight and passion for the art of filmmaking and photography to capture his friends, Andy and Bruce Irons, Aaron Cormican, and other east coasters for the early Lost films. His immortal images continue to inform the early days of Andy, and his energetic spirit continues to document the best. Poke’ sauce and more bear his lovable name… Tupat!
