For those of you who missed this film last night, you missed:

A young Nicole Kidman.

Fiberglass wave boards.

Mast base within about 2ft. of the front of the board.

Single and tri fins (probably no toe-in on the outer fins ).

Tie-on boom.

Drop front boom.

Deflection of the aluminium boom arm as it came under load.

Pure rope as the harness line.

Rope harness line ends being AT LEAST 2ft apart on the boom

The hero using a wave sail having 3 and a half battens.

Said sail beating a 5-batten wave sail in a race.

Bright sail colours.

Fully rigging a sail whilst up to the hero's neck in water.

Fluro wetsuits.

A wild seal kissing the male hero when he fell into the water.

A young Nicole Kidman.

Yes, I have a lot of time on my hands.

Yes, it was Nicole, as per the credits.

Having spotted all of those windsurf-gear features, after a bedroom romp, I also spotted that she had a very nice posterior.

Ive never found her remotely attractive. Jennifer Connolly from the 80s was much more my type back then. :)

As a kid the shark scene kept me out of the water for a while. Now when I see it, it's comical.
