Thomas Debierre for Sooruz

Directed by Simon Levalois-Bazer
Produced by Sooruz

“Filmed this winter in Guadeloupe with my friend Simon Levalois-Bazer , « Trade winds » recounts a few sessions during a particularly trade winds dominated year. With a blurry vision about what this contest year may look like, and after a discal hernia which kept me away from surfing from August to December, the need of this pure feeling of free surfing was itchy. Filmed over less than 10 sessions with the help of Yentl Touboul for additional angles, we gathered couple good clips from windy sessions, and with all the Gwada boys out there it pushed me to land some airs. Wind, waves authenthics and exotics landscapes, « Trade Winds » is a funky surf video without pretention.”
