Notes

STORM RIDERS are young and free and ready for anything - discovering the exotic jungles of Sumatra, Java, romantic Bali and the blistering desert of outback Australia. They ride the treacherous coastlines of Africa and the Great Australian Bight, pitting their courage against the biggest waves ever filmed, sharing waves with wild dolphins and Windsurfing huge life-and-death waves in Hawaii.

These are the STORM RIDERS and they will take you on the ride of your life. The greatest ocean adventure ever filmed featuring the best Oz music you'll ever hear.
