Torren Martyn - surf section from Calypte

This is a section from 'Calypte - a sailing and surfing voyage' - a 2023 needessentials produced feature film by Ishka Folkwell & Torren Martyn.

Torren Martyn describes this perfect day from the Calypte voyage when timing, ocean conditions, and a bit of luck all aligned.

'Before the trip I remember so clearly thinking how amazing it would be to just have one really memorable session with our little home bobbing away in the channel and how it would just be a dream come true.  That was certainly the day, I couldn’t believe what was happening around me, the unridden perfect waves that were coming through and the fact we’d just landed ourselves in the right place at the right time, it was such a miracle.'
