Storyline

Dana is 18, gorgeous and a killer surfer with a shelf full of trophies to prove it. When her father pressures her to buckle down and go to college, Dana flees her Beverly Hills home for the beaches of South Africa, the site of some of the world's most awesome surf and her late mother's home country. With her mom's journal in hand and a mismatched gang of surf fanatics watching her back, Dana embarks on an odyssey along the breathtaking southern coast of Africa to fulfill her mother's dream-one long, flawless journey down the barrel of the killer waves of J-Bay.

User Reviews

Disappointing

I wasn't expecting much for this movie; however, as I watched my expectations lowered very quickly.

The acting is sub-par, as is the plot in general. The plot is not very complex; although by seeing the commercial for this film that secret is already blown off.

It seemed as if the directors just plucked outgoing teenagers from the region where they were supposed to be from, shoved them into bikinis, gave them a script, and then recorded.

The most frustrating quality of this movie is the volume. It frequently fluctuated from a soft whisper to an extremely loud burst of sound. Around every 2-3 minutes I had to adjust the volume.

Hardly any redeeming qualities. I turned it off after about 60 minutes. Did not like this movie.
