Enter The City - #ArtistCreativeFest
We could all do with a little disruption to the normal routine... sometimes you've got to break out of the bubble, and explore somewhere new. Shot in Durban South Africa, this is a short created specifically for the #artlistcreativefest 2022. Hope you enjoy watching as much as we did making it!

"South African surfers have been portrayed in a one-dimensional light during the COVID-19 pandemic. The reality is far more inspiring. Not far from the beaches they love to surf are surfers like Nigel Savel, founder of the The 9 Miles Project - a surf-intervention programme based on the Cape Flats. When the lockdown forced the closure all their youth programmes, the organisation swiftly focusse...

Monday Blues Ep 02 - SOUTH COAST SURF OFF
Просмотров 4845 лет назад
New Year's bash down the south coast of South Africa with my girl Roch, bro Nate and a whole bunch of old and new friends at Joegs and Mook Lion's infamous cottage. A whole lotta fun went down, including a make shift surf comp where I ended up getting chased out the water by an alleged sharky, that charged towards me before disappearing below the surface. Enjoy and don't forget to subscribe! My...

Just came across your video and this is so uplifting to watch. Thank you for sharing your story/experience!
Thank you so much for your generosity and hard work. It is such a blessing to see hungry people been fed. I gave a large donation three years ago to a group of young men who formed a club to buy the most important food items for these poor families who needed it during the pandemic . What a joy to see how well they have been cared for. Blessings to all of you from Aotearoa.
Is this the only spot? Looks crowded. I'm sure there is better surf in Mozambique?
Why some make the media leap and gain that recognition and some don't is not really io to those doing it I've found. For me you do it no matter what happens because it's a part of you. Simple as that. What happens next is always exciting. Challenging. Life. Thanks
Love that, all of it!
This is unbelievable man! Congrats on all the hard work. Inspiring me to get back in the water filming.
yeew lush mate
I was surfing Muizenberg in 1972 already.
I’m South African. Did you ever surf the Wedge in tea water with sharks? You had to drive into the port, take a right. Pretend you’re going to Milnerton. Park and then climb oversize, concrete Jax, which were the breakwater. Always got a ding in my board, just to get in into the water. Dunno, was it a Saturday or Sunday? We spotted a fin in the water. A real sharp fin, not a porpoise or dolphin curve. A real fin. Fuck me if all 5 of us just kept surfing. We thought we were all going to live forever.
I just came across this video. I am from Strandfontein and I am completing my Masters in Architecture. My dissertation is centered around connecting the residents of Strandfontein to the ocean again. Thank you for this, it's very insightful.
No ways man, that's amazing. Are you in contact with Nigel from 9 Miles?

Lekker bro!!! Awesome creation 👌
World class great whites
Man I miss the waves over there
Lol...ok 🤘🥱
Sadly only one ocean you would need to go to cape agulus to get indo the India ocean. But hey they are made up anyway
Oneday I'll be here Live and surf and enjoy my life amap
This was my spot till a boat wreaked and now its all sheet metal everywhere
A bludgeon. Bludgerdream
Amazing, I love this!
Super cool video !!😎 the surfing and vibe was epic ! I have one thing that could have made it better !! Lagos is the center of global music for the last few years .. would be cool if you would have used some local music especially in Lagos to capture the local energy🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
I know, I know... wish I could go back in time. When I made this in 2016 I wasn't quite as focused on the music element as I should have been. That being said, if I were to re-edit a version just for you, what songs/artists would you suggest? You obviously know your stuff...
Gorgeous and sharky.
what an intro lakka love it
Absolutely amazing!
Good vibes in the water unless you go surf at Llandudno...where everyone thinks they own the place.
Dude rips!!! Clean little edit, thanks
Love Cape Town
Keep on growing fam.
Thanks guys for sharing this amazing video. Takwa bays and many others are lovely to visit, in any weather. This video further proves that Nigeria and other African nations have so much potential, but unfortunately, the dark forces within and outside their borders want to ensure this is never materialised.
Nicely filmed video. Honestly would be nice to hear African sounds and music to the footage but still a great Film. Thank you
That looks so cool and deep like you want to know what story it has behind it💯The Colours and vibe from the art is straight up refreshing 💫
Ah loved this man! Epic story, well told
Nice one bru!!
The local boy now a grown kid now
..don't know if this place is deceiving but it looks so do-able...even for an average surfer ...
This is only medium size, when it get big, like 15-20+ it gets super dicey. Really steep, really fast, the face is very choppy and its heavy. I mean HEAVY. Then there are the sharks.
@@krishorst4734 i believe you....ive had scary times at dunes in the 6 foot range....so i can just imagine ...
Great short film with a good vibe! Love Africa and their people🙌🏽🤙🏽
Lighthouse left
