Morning of the Earth Moments
Спорт
On multiple cusps of surfing's seismic shifts, Morning of the Earth captured the move to a new age of shorter performance surfing. A shift that had not yet forgotten style, grace, or harmony. Culturally, society was changing, MOTE, through the camera of Albe Falzon and the music of Brian Cadd captured surfing's innocence at the edge of the professional era, launching many of the MOTE surfers featured into their life-long careers. Moments, at the beginning: Terry Fitzgerald

Thanks Fernando
Terry Fitzgerald timeless style master. Nothing like that today with points/maneuvers based contests. No slash and burn, just perfect harmony with the wave.

I agree, it's like using the wave for a magic carpet ride instead of using lines to tear the wave apart. Watch Torren Martyn, he's a modern surfer with an amazing throwback soul style who blends everything very well.
Such beauty....."Take my hand and be free" . Thanks for the upload,
Simply the greatest moments of all time…
the most elegant surfer, or my i say, human being, i've ever seen ... i'm absolutely stoked. the song is cool as well, 2 say the least
Long before Mick Fanning, this was the Australian "Sultan of Speed"

Yeah Fitzy! Just found your channel. Good on ya Mate.
One of the romantic sub texts of MOTE was the promise of eternal youth - on that note it was a masterpiece & a delusion.
White man returns to Eden with a surfboard under his arm.
Lovely

The Sultan
Sorry to say I didn't appreciate the genius of T. Fitz in '72. He was far too advanced for my limited understanding. Looking again, he is among my favorite surfers of that period. So committed, on edge, creative, and stylish. Best style. Not a learned affectation of standing tall and doing nothing at all, but moving with the wave. Only meant him once. In 1973 at his shop. He had a grinder in his hand and I told him his boards were beautiful, which I only half believed at the time. He smiled and said, "We have fun."

All the innocent beautiful North Coast points and Bali we knew have become toilets for the Western World. Pity that !
