5.0 out of 5 stars Finally.... Women Longboarders in the spotlight!, February 10, 2006

This review is from: Girls Rip - A New Era in Women's Surfing (DVD)

In an era of DVDs focused on either radical aerial maneuvers or Monster Waves it is refreshing to see someone take a risk and put something out that breaks the mold.

With "Girls Rip" the camera (and microphone) is focused on women longboarders who truly rip and for once get to hear their opinions (admittedly unrehearsed) of their peers and themselves. This is not an artsy, soft focus video like you might expect with the main subject being women. The guys from Burnt Toast Productions have always delivered the goods for longboarders and this is no exception.

The footage is shot from Swami's north to Santa Cruz and covers nearly all of the up-and-coming women as well as the Pros you would expect. The soundtrack is upbeat surf music (another break from the death metal soundtracks on most surf vids) with a couple of Burnt Toast standards like "Ocean".

It seems to be all new footage with exceptional clips of Rincon, Swami's, Secos and Malibu. The style and grace displayed by Carla Rowland, Julie Cox, Schuyler McFerran and Kassia Meador is something that all will appreciate.

This video is a must-have for anyone who appreciates great longboarding, but especially women who surf and those who want to give a great gift to the female longboarders in their lives.

I bought this for my daughter who's 12 and loves to surf. She is on her surf team at school and they always watch surfing DVD's. For Christmas she wanted one with girls, especially long boarding since that's what she does. Well this DVD is awesome. Local waves all along the So Cal Coast. Great interviews with all the girls. Shows lots of styles and is very entertaining. Finally another great DVD that features girls. It rips!!

Girls Rip is definitely one of my new favorite longboard movies. It's filmed and narrated in a whole new way thats super fun to watch. It has some of the most talented women longboarders to date and some pretty good wipe outs. Not only does it let you watch the girls style and surfing, but you hear from other girls about the certian surfer, so you get to know them a little more. I love this movie and i highly recommend it to anyone and everyone in and out if the surfing community!!
