Laird Hamilton is perhaps the greatest big wave surfer of all time, a living legend who has tamed some of the world’s mightiest waves. Among the surf community, he is also one of the most controversial figures, an innovator who has revolutionized the sport often to the dismay of purists. The thrilling, up-close portrait Take Every Wave The Life of Laird Hamilton DVD traces his remarkable journey, from his rebellious childhood in Hawaii to his fearless first forays into surfing to his relentless pursuit of ever-bigger waves, a quest that ultimately led him to conquer what’s been called “the heaviest wave ever ridden.” Academy Award-nominated director-producer Rory Kennedy (Ghosts of Abu Ghraib, Last Days in Vietnam) blends candid interviews with breathtaking action footage that is “nothing short of awesome” (Dave McGinn, The Globe and Mail) to create a visceral, white-knuckle look at a life lived on the edge.
