Welcome to the second edition of Thursday Thrillers! This week I’m going to concentrate on surfing. I can’t surf but would love to try. I first became aware of surf videos in general when I cycled through Liberia.

Road to Harper in Southern Liberia.

I had loads of people suggest I watch Sliding Liberia (see below) a video about three surfers searching for waves in Liberia. I really loved the old school film style and with the natural elements present it can’t help but be a feast for the eyes. I now know there are hundreds of these vids but these are my favourites three because of the countries they’re in and one because they’re surfing in the Arctic!

This is Sliding Liberia. The film follows three surfers (Dan Malloy, Chris Del Moro, Crystal Thornburg) as they travel to Liberia a staggeringly beautiful country destroyed by decades of civil and guerilla war.

This is Gum for My Boat-Surfing in Bangladesh. The film follows professional surfer Kahana Kalama as he spends some time with the Bangladesh Surf Club. It’s amazing that in a country you associate more with poverty and floods you can find a club like this.

This Arctic Surf Film. I love this. Five surfers wanted to find a wave that hadn’t been surfed and headed up into the Arctic-brilliant!
