This is from a satirical animation I did about the difference between contest surfers and free surfers. Here the free surfer is at the airport buried in his quiver of tribal instruments and retro surfboards. Photo: Cyrus Sutton.

Cyrus Sutton is the Creative Director/Filmmaker at the ever-popular Korduroy.tv. Although his surfing speaks for itself, it’s been his filmmaking that grabbed the attention of the masses. Sutton received an Emmy award for The Next Wave: A Tsunami Relief Story in 2005, and has worked on Riding Waves, Tom’s Creation Plantation, and most recently, Under the Sun. A documentary film shot in Byron Bay and the Gold Coast, Australia, Under the Sun looks at where the commercialization of surfing stems from. Shot in super 16mm, it stars Dave Rastovich, Nat Young, Beau Young, Rabbit Bartholomew, and Dean Morrison.
Under the Sun DVD is now available at Korduroy.tv and includes 75 mins of bonus surfing, deleted scenes and making of special features.
