Margaret river is cliffs, rocks, sharks and anticipation. Esperance is sand, glory, un-crowds and sunshine. Factor in swell and wind and a German teenager and you have Nti Gravity, our new short with Philip Köster. When you combine his spontaneous style, his aggression on the turns and his sheer joy of sailing, there is still no one else on the planet we would rather watch. 8 hour drives followed by 8 hour sessions; it was hard to get him off the water. On land he can be quiet, on the board he can be brazen. In this WeAreNeverLeaving short we take Köster on a roadtrip along the Western Australian coast looking for sun, swell and trouble. We found two of those things.
Australia Pro Ben Newson recently released this solo video as a fun project testing some filming methods in Western Australia.
I recently went “Hans Solo” on a mission to the South coast of WA on a recent good forecast hoping to score some good conditions and explore some new locations. Seeing as though I was the only person on the beach I decided to set my tripod up in the hope to get a bit of footage. I jammed the legs into the sand and rested the lense against the trusty Toyota for some stabilization from the wind. I call it the set and forgot method, a bit like fishing when you dont have the line in your hands. It was a bit painful at times and a lot of action was missed either out of frame or because the camera decided to stop recording. It stayed on at Mutton Bird Beach but didn’t want to play nice at the good spot. I managed to get a bit of action (not the best i know) and cut it together into a short clip to show the conditions on offer. It was more about testing out whether this method of filming would work. It was filmed with a canon 60D, Canon 70-200 f4 non is, Tamron 24-70 f2.8 and the goprohd 2. – Ben
