This page is dedicated to North Shore. Made in 1987 this movie is a
epic tale of love and ambition situated on Hawaii's North Shore. Starring
Matt Adler as Rick Kane, an art student who goes to hawaii to surf the
season. He meets Turtle, a local, who talks funny surfer lingo. Then
he meets Chandler a surf board shaper (played by Gregory Harrison) who takes Rick into his house and
teaches him how to surf like the "soul surfers". But it's not all incense
and peppermints for Rick as the local gang The Hui (who-ee) don't like his
intruding on their turf and plan to keep him apart from his would-be
girlfriend and "hui-chick" Kiani played by Nia Peeples. Set out to overcome
the odds he enters the Pipeline Classic, a major surfing competition, and must
surf against the greats and his nemisis Lance Burkhart (played
by Laird Hamilton). Who wins the competition you ask ??....you'll have to watch the movie.
And if you already have.....Stay Loose Haole (how-lee)!
Here are some of North Shore's best sounds (recorded by me!)

This is what the Washington Post had to say about NS (they didn't like it cuz they're uptight conservatives who only like "A" class movies. I give mister fancy Washington pants 0 stars out of 10)
