DVD Reviews of Siestas & Olas - A Surfing Journey Through Mexico

DVD Review: Verano Interminable
Summary: 5 Stars

For you gringos, that's Endless Summer in Spanish. Get it? The DVD follows the same narration format, with a couple of surfers taking 3 months off to surf Mexico from Baja to Puerto Escondido (that's Puerto not Porto, as the narrator pronounced it) making the trip in No. 2, an old Chevy Suburban.

The production was very entertaining with good surfing and an equally good story line in the places they stopped and the locals they met along the way.

Definitely worth owning.

DVD Review: Big surf, fun surf, funny guys
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this to see Joel Tudor surf Puerto Escondido but there is a whole bunch of other great scenes too. There is a lot of fun medium sized surf, some real big surf and some dorks goofing off. All in all a great surf movie. If you like movies like the endless summer that are relaxed and fun then you will like this one. If you are looking for crazy ripping with fast punk music, look somewhere else. (I think half of the soundtrack must have been recorded in Mexico!)

DVD Review: An instant classic
Summary: 5 Stars

You will love this movie. It's very similar to Endless Summer and a must see for anyone who has been or is thinking of going to Mexico to surf. Even if you don't surf, there's plenty in the movie to enjoy.

DVD Review: surfing video
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a fun surf movie with awesome waves and great surfing. One of the few longboard movies that I keep coming back to.

DVD Review: Good vintage surfing
Summary: 4 Stars

If you like Endless summer and those types of vintage Surfing movies this is the one for you. Siestas and Olas is a wonderful nostalgic roadtrip/surfing movie with entertaining narration and of course some great waves.I felt like I had lived the trip myself by the end. Good fun and relaxing.
