California Soul
Most of the footage can be seen in the NobodySurf Originals series that I made for them. This is a unique collaboration with Jitzuwa Finder, who makes custom soundtracks for NobodySurf Originals.

Water Colours
Hi, this is Herb. I'd like to take you on a surf adventure as I see it through the eye of my camera. First stop California's classic Rincon. I put the camera in my water housing and paddled out with Dwayne DeSoto and Zack Howard. Taking off behind them as planned I was able to capture their surfing experience from a lot of unique angles as we played on the waves together. This winter the surf was epic on the North Shore and I was lucky enough to be there with my camera. I caught Bonga, Joel, Dino, Kanoa and this years new rookies ripping Pipeline in all it's different moods. Sometimes I got so stoked I had to put away the camera and go out myself. It was great!! With the swell coming up I called Devon Howard and arranged to meet him and some of the gang at Haliewa. Then I was on to Waimea to film Giant paddle in surf. It was an awesome sight.
