Brucifire Surf Report Mid April 2021 (with some board reviews)
After 6 takes, it’s finally a wrap! I really have to thank both Bruce and I for not losing our cool in 48 hours of retake after retake. The one shot move is the holy grail of YouTube video making (according to some), and I think we might get the hang of this thing.
Albeit with a few more practise runs. It’s actually a helluva lot of fun and I am sure internet broadcasting like this will soon be very normal for everyone. Buzz me if you need help! It is so much quicker to publishing than the old ways of editing and rendering. And then uploading huge files?! This is nothing short of revolutionary!
Relying on cellphones and networks adds to the challenge, and so we dropped sound quite a few times in the beginning of the broadcast. Luckily the report is about 9 minutes long so you shouldn’t even remember the glitches.
Surfboard reviews
After Brucifire reviews four seriously original surfboards 1. A Zulu, 2. A STU Kenson, 3. an Alaeia and 4. a very ominous looking Mikey Meyer, we move onto a pre-packaged insert that Bruce shot all by himself!
Remains to be Seen
Remains to be Seen, the surf museum run by Brucifire, is getting a new home. Made of bricks and concrete and sporting a sprinkling of decidedly glamorous features. Like a juice bar! Watch this space! It’s quite a big space and should be a helluva lot of fun to visit once it’s all set up. Two months or so for that party. No-invite only! The entirety of the currently quaint Remains to be Seen surf museum, plus a whole lot more scatterlings all about the place, will be finding a home here. Courtesy of Aloha Guesthouse and the Rossouw family. Wowser!
This is where Brucifire and the team will be chronicling as much surfing history as possible, in these surf reports. And then pumping it up onto YouTube for posterity and profit! Ha hahaha, yes, selling out finally Brucifire! About bloody time!
There is a lot more like this on https://thesardine.co.za which is the home of The Sardine News. A tongue-in-cheek attempt at avoiding bad news completely. And a great place to market your goods or services.
You can find all the Brucifire surf reports, and a helluva lot of other surfing, fishing and diving content, on YouTube at our Channel right HERE.
