“Good for all ages?”

My 9-year old did fine. The shark attack is just a flash followed by lots of screaming and blood in the water. You don’t see her arm being ripped off, and you don’t see her bloddy stump until its covered with a shirt. A child younger may have issues with that scene. The rest of the movie is perfectly good for all ages.

The reef breaks are like that, very distinct. Sunset, Haleiwa, Pipeline, Makaha are all very distinctive. Beach breaks are not since the sandbars shift almost daily.

BBB probably wasn’t a very good example, shot all in CA at Malibu point, I would guess. Another little surf insider is the actual surfers that were filmed, Mickey DaCat Dora comes to mind. In the movie point Break, Patrick Swayze was sposed to be in Australia riding the swell of the century. Well, it was Waimea Bay and the surfer was big wave legend, Derrick Doerner who was paid to take a dive, literally on about 5-6 rather large waves to get the final sequence right.
All sports are like that I guess.
