I saw the clips on youtube for the documentary. Looks very intriguing. Anyone know when it will be released?

I think it was released in brazil but wasn't translated to english or something. I'd like to know as well.

Has anyone gotten any updates on this, the website says "Coming in 2010", I hope the project did not fall through

Yup. Same reasons board shorts are popular. Lots of Brazilian BJJ guys would surf, train, rinse and repeat.

Looks good any news?

Along with that, there was an update saying that the film would be out "this coming Autumn", but I guess something must have happened to delay release. Original interview with the guy behind it here.

I definitely want to see this!

Skip the "music" (it has to be rap/hip-hop, or Death Metal, right? like it breaks an iron tradition to have anything else).

I'd pay extra to have NO "music" but instead someone like Rorion narrating.

Also please put some lesbian action in it.
