God Went Surfing with The Devil is a film by Alex Klein, which documents the war-torn region of Gaza. At a time when tensions are high, this film investigates the attitudes and aspirations of a small pocket of people where surfing removes socio-political divisions and lets the ocean carry their aspirations for peace.

A world away from the average commercial surf competition, pushy dads and nervous groms, generations share the stoke at a contest that celebrates the original Hawaiian spirit. This is truly a unique perspective in surfing. Photos: Yves S


05 Surf Film Festival Ciudad de Santander

December 06, 2010 | Words By: Staff Writer

The 05 Surf Film Festival Ciudad de Santander, kicks off from the 8th to the 10th of December at Los Angeles movie theater in Santander, Spain.


The Classic Photo exhibition this year comes from photographer Jeff Divine. This exhibition is possible courtesy of Mr. Jeff Divine and the Surfers Journal and gives us the chance to show 25 jewels focusing on a specific period from 1970 to 1980. his photographs, not only document a particular subculture, but also visually express the spirit of a time. A time of change and transition, filled with creativity, and very turbulent socially and politically. This exhibition will be shown at the Los Angeles theater lobby during the festival. Born and raised in the neighborhood of la Jolla, California, in 1966 Jeff Divine was a 16 year old surfer and amateur photographer who was dedicated to the immortalization of his friends and other local surfers of coastal San Diego.

In early 1970 he was recruited by Brad Barrett of Surfer magazine to pick up where legendary photographer Ron Stoner left off. Some could say he met surfing at surfing’s first steps and arrived at Surfer magazine at the infancy of the sport. This job allowed him to be one of the most prominent chroniclers of this young sport. From 1971 to 1980, Divine lived in Hawaii and travelled extensively around the world with his camera capturing the art of surfing. In 1981 he became the photo editor for Surfer magazine, a position he held for 16 years. Divine is currently the photography editor of the prestigious magazine The Surfers Journal and continues to contribute to Surfer magazine.
