Synopsis

Traveling the world for 40 years with some of todays most legendary surfers, Greg Weaver and Spyder Wills captured Super 8mm images that have, until now been lost for almost a half a century...Corky Carrol in Newport Beach in 1965, Jerry Lopez in Maui in 1970. Rory Russell and Lopez discovering Bali. An in depth look at the Black Trunks of the Westside shot in the mid 70s as explained by Sunny Garcia and Black Trunks member Warren Hoohuli. Never before seen footage of the Z Boys as Stacy Peralta tells where radical surfing really started. This is only a sample of the legends and locations that director Gregory Schell has assembled in the new film Chasing The Lotus.

Assembled from the "Lost Reels" of Weaver and Wills and narrated by Jeff Bridges, the film promises to go down as one of todays most indepth looks at surf discovery and will be around for many years to come.

    Very Enjoyable document of 40 years of Surfing

    06 December 2008
    A really enjoyable 'watch', excellent interviews and v.o. Pins down exactly the travel bug /surfing wanderlust and documents the last forty years of surfing through the eyes of 'soul surfing' afficianados. Shame they were all sceptics. Empty Ulu, Laguna Rock Fest, Costa Rica and Mauritius sequences are all special. Wonder how the next 40 years in surfing will be recorded.
