LONG DESCRIPTION: Longevity is proud to present "Pressure". Shot entirely on location in Huntington Beach during the U.S. Open of Surfing, Pressureis a truly unique experience that leads you through the minds of today's top longboarders. Oftentimes surf fans just read contest results in the magazines. Some are fortunate enough to watch these gladiators do battle live from the stadium-sized area on the sand. But few truly know what actually takes place behind the scenes -- away from all the hoopla -- until now. Pressurepits the nation's leading riders against each other in what makes for a one-of-a-kind competition movie. It does more than just document the action in the water. It also includes exclusive, candid footage of the sport's leading innovators preparing for their heats, sizing up their competition and explaining their strategy. Laced with playful humor and a grooving soundtrack, Pressurewill take you deeper than you've ever been before, into the unseen (and often censored) world of professional longboarding.

It was pretty nice to have the thrill of wondering who would win the contest. It was a fun movie to watch, especially following the drama of the alternates.

The film has a pretty good storyline, following different surfers during the course of the US Open 2005(?). During the film, if you either don't remember or don't google it, it's quite suspenseful to be left wondering who's going to take the title this time around. Here is my take: Great storyline, good narration, very high surf-caliber, poor (very poor, very, very poor) wave quality, and editing so-so. I definitely recommend it -- it's worth your time.
