“Summer means different things to different people. To a skier it's the off-season. To a school kid it's a vacation. But to a surfer, summer is endless.”

“Most people think of surfers as beach bums. But these guys are athletes.”

“The incredible thing about surfing is that you're dealing with a force of nature that is completely unpredictable.”

“The reward for me is that I can say, 'I've been there and I've done that.'”

“It's a search. That's what surfing is about. It's a search for the perfect wave.”

“You can't really explain surfing to someone who hasn't done it.”

“The ultimate surfing adventure: a trip around the world.”

“On any Sunday, thousands of people of all ages indulge in a passion that is pure and simple... motorcycling.”

“With a camera, it's not a matter of turning it on. It's a matter of turning it on at the right time.”

“I think the main thing is, you have to really love what you're doing.”

“I could have probably made a lot more money if I'd stayed in Hollywood, but I wouldn't have had the freedom.”
