Pros and Cons of Sipping Jetstreams Surf DVD Video

Many people have eagerly awaited the arrival of this DVD, and for good reason.  It is a very typical movie that you will either love or hate.  There is not much commentary, dialogue or narration, being in essence more of a photographic documentary with some fantastic musical background tracks.  It effectively describes the relationship between the surfer and nature.  There are great elements of humour in the Sipping Jetstreams DVD and it really shows not just the beauty of nature, but also how we connect to it as surfers.  If you do feel you need narration as well, the bonus features such as the behind the scenes and the director’s commentary contain this.

On the down side, people have mentioned that there are too many wind swell surf scenes and that it is quite expensive for what it is.  Whether or not you find it too expensive is a matter of personal choice, it is no more or less expensive than any other DVD on Amazon.

Extreme Sports Final Thoughts

The Sipping Jetstreams Surf DVD Video is said to be the best surf DVD ever made.  Whether it is or not really depends on personal preferences.  Marketed as a surfing novel, it really is more of a photographic documentary.  However, the shots are absolutely fantastic and it really does demonstrate the relationship surfers have with nature, trying to live side by side rather than trying to overpower nature.

Whether you are looking for a DVD because you simply enjoy watching surfing, or whether you are looking for some great tips on where to surf and how to surf, the Sipping Jetstreams DVD is a fantastic addition to any collection.  It would also make a great gift for any surfing enthusiast, particularly since it is reasonably priced on Amazon ($34.95 to buy or $7.99 on instant video).  The design of the box is incredibly sleek, meaning that you won’t even have to wrap it up and it will look great on anyone’s shelf at home.
