In 2007 roughly 30,000 b&w dupe negatives were discovered in Pasadena at the Rose Bowl Swapmeet. After spending 1 year organizing the collection I have been traveling for the last 3+ years capturing stories that if not told will be lost.... This is Lost and Found. Aaron Chang, Dan Merkel, Bob Barbour, Bernie Baker, Buttons, Greg Weaver, Jock Sutherland, Rory Russell, Larry Bertlemann, Bobby Owens, Duncan Campbell & Gerry Lopez.
The SOUL

thanks for the good review
I found the film to be more than entertaining. As a surfer (former, or part-time), learning how Gerry Lopez and Aaron Chang got their respective starts was amazing. The collection of old footage provided more than enough visual stimulation to break up the dialogue. Each interview is filled with smiles and tales of the good ole days. There’s also a ton of history packed into these individual stories. The tearjerker comes at the end when we learn about Larry Moore. This film is definitely recommended for anyone with a vested interest in surf culture and its origins, but also for anyone who has a love or passion for any action sport in general.
