DVD Reviews of Kelly Slater - Black and White
DVD Review: Quick Kelly Slater
Summary: 2 Stars
Review in short: I was looking for a surfing movie having loved Step into Liquid and Riding Giants. This wasn't that type of movie at all. Like others said, if you like Kelly Slater, you may find this interesting. I was not impressed with the length or content based on the price I spent. I would have rather borrowed this from a friend then buy it; now it's just going to collect dust.
Two stars because I like Kelly Slater.
Wanna borrow it?
DVD Review: A classic film for all surfers
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the greatest surf films on the greatest surfer of all time. Kelly Slater was basically a child prodigy. He was born to surf. Raised in Cocoa Beach, Florida, Slater applied knowledge, talent, dedication, and desire to become the greatest competitive surfer in the history of the sport. He holds several records, including the youngest world champion at the age of 21, and the oldest at the age of 33 in 2005. He would go on to win titles in 1992, 1994-98, 2005. At the age of 8, Kelly Slater was already being regarded as the next world champion. He was surfing as well as anyone, drawing smooth, powerful lines yet lacking power. In Black and White, we witness the beginnings of a surfing legend, he is surfing very differently from how he surfs today, he is still developing his aerial skills but the fundamentals are already in place. The fundamentals that would lead him to dominate pro surfing for the next decade and a half. Kelly Slater redefined what you could do on a surfboard and continues to redefine it, in his quest for an unprecedented number of World Titles.
Black and White was a promotional video from his sponser Quiksilver on the rising star. Black and White is short- 25 minutes or less. Black and White features vintage footage of Kelly when he was very young, surfing at Cape Hatteras, in his first contest at Lower Trestles(which he won), at Tavarua, Sebastian Inlet, and Hawaii. His signature style is already evident here, the bent back knee, the arm positioning, his incredible commitment and flexiblity as a surfer, his timing and instinctive feel for the wave, and his imaginative creativity. Taj Burrow has listed this film as his all time favorite in his book. Kelly performs the first front and backside "reverses" ever caught on film. An essential film to add to any surf movie library.
DVD Review: Actually pretty interesting
Summary: 4 Stars
If you like Kelly Slater you will like this video.
I happen to admire his surfing ability/style and enjoyed the video. It is a bunch of clips of him when he is young (before he went bald). It is kind of retro, but overall I enjoyed this video.
The whole soundtrack seems to be done by Mother Love Bone...and other early 90s Seattle bands. Clips of Kelly surfing are combined with random commentary of Kelly eating a bowl of cereal, that is mildy amusing.
If you don't like Kelly Slater don't buy this. If you do I would definitely get it, especially if the price is under $12.
