The feedback has been phenomenal from around the world, we appreciate it a lot. On behalf of Seek Films, we want to clarify that the video is a promotional preview and should not be considered the official trailer of the documentary, as we have not begun production yet. The footage you see was shot by Daphne Schmon and Robert McCormick during a pre-production trip to Bonaire so that we could begin fundraising. We will return to Bonaire in May 2010 with a full crew including our director of photography, Peter Robertson, and state of the art HD technology. After completing post-production back in NY, we will release an official trailer. Further information and updates can be found on our website: www.childrenofthewindmovie.com Thanks again for your support, particularly our friends in Bonaire!

Dude you are being demeaning about people you dont know they are top windsurfers in the world and they where a big part (and still are) of pushing freestyle to where it is today, if you saw taty's preformance on sylt you'd know what i mean. But i have to agree the production of this movie does NOT like it's done by a professional who worked on oscar nominated films. Four Dimensions and movies in other action sports are way better produced than this trailer is. Let's hope the full movie does get that professional touch the intro suggests. But even if not i am still totally stoked to check out a full size movie with these guys in action because bonaire is not overplayed, it s still a freestyle meccah and these guys are the best in the business @Johannes.
