Our story revolves around one incredible, man-made behemoth of a wave, but more importantly the lives it has affected from the 50s to present day. Dirty Old Wedge introduces us to a cast of characters who have made, ruined, or lost their lives over a common infatuation. Through a combination of modern day cinematography and never before seen footage dating back to the 50s, the film covers the entire history of one of the most iconic surf spots in Southern California and the culmination of an unforgettable crew of bodysurfers who would become known a world over as the Wedge Crew.
Interviews with original crew members, as well as perspectives from such surf icons as Keith Malloy, Mark Cunningham, and Mike Stewart chronicle the Wedge's history of bodysurfing, surfing, boogie boarding, the creation of blackball flag, and all the laughs and horrors in between. A story ripe with compassion, brutality, territorial losses and gains, nostalgia, and new generations, Dirty Old Wedge leaves you with a truly unique story of a legendary crew of wave riders who forged their own path in the world of surfing.
Not Rated.
