It watches very well, great job. Filming of the surfers is superb. One thing that could use a bit more work is the cuts between surfing scenes: you show plenty of randomly filmed nature views. They certainly help in breaking the monotony of showing only surfing action (even though there is nothing monotonous about surfing!). Although these nature cuts are nice, well, they appear randomly chosen, and are not a strong part of your film.
In any case, great work.

Is this Western Australia? Nice place wherever it is.. Good surfers.

How long is your lens? I think you need more tele.

Thankyou very much guys, greatly appreciated.
This was actually for a school project and the movie length had to be of five minutes, unfortunately I didnt have five minutes of high quality surfing, so you are defiently right in saying they randomly picked because they were I like to refer to them as fillers cause that is all they were doing haha. Fancy you say that, I just bought a brand new tele lens recently, hopefully that solves that problem. I will have more to post soon thanks for your help guys.
