A Pleasant Surprise is a feature length east coast surf film featuring a select group professional and amateur east coast surfers.

Three years in the making, this surf film documents a world of contrast as daily changes in weather and waves prove to be all part of a larger picture; thumping beach breaks, cold water, and quick tropical storms are just a fraction of what you will find. Brought to you in Super 16mm, A Pleasant Surprise allows for the full beauty of the mid-atlantic region and its surfers to be realized.



A film by Kyle Pahlow and Nick Zegel

Featuring some of New Jersey's top professional and amateur surfers including... Sam Hammer, Ben McBrien, Andrew Gesler, Zach Humphries, Jamie Moran, Randal Townsend, Brendan Willem, Chris & Rob Kelly, Matt Keenan & Ian Bloch.
