5.0 out of 5 stars Stoked For Life, May 14, 2005
An incredible film for young and old. A tribute to the fact that life doesn't end after 60. A healthy mind and attitude can carry a person well into their 90's. "Doc" Ball is an example, still surfing at the age of 93.

The story follows 10 seniors who are still actively surfing today, how they have learned to grow old gracefully, others kicking and fighting all the way, not only against their waning physical strength, but politically to keep the Hawaiian beaches safe from the encroachment of modern society. There is joy, laughter, and even a few tears, a film that is touching and filled with the Aloha Spirit. One I simply must own. ...Kelsana

What a fabulous documentary of how life after 60 can be grand. The video is an inspiration to both young and old. It is a must have for anyone who wants to look forward to life and a what a positive attitude can truly do for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun, inspiring surf video, November 28, 2007
By D. Presler (Crescent City, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Surfing for Life is one of the best surfing videos I have ever seen. It covers several surfers from the age of 60 to the age of 93! It gives small biographies of each surfer, how they started, personal experiences and why they still love to surf. The music is great surf music and the videography is absolutely beautiful. It's very different than any other surf video in that this video features surfers with their spouses, children and even grandchildren surfing together or at least family talking about how much surfing means to their loved one. And it's not just a guys video; many women and girls are high lighted too. One woman shared her personal story of breaking her neck and thinking surfing was over for her, but she recovered and surfs today with her children and grandchildren. I highly recommend this video to any surfer or those even interested in surfing. It will help you understand the surfers you know.
