Extreme Thursdays: Unsalted
June 11th, 2009
One part obsession, one part addiction, and an unending quest for adventure makes Great Lakes surfers a truly rare breed. Add 40 knots of wind, 10 foot waves, and frigid temperatures to a storm ravenged freshwater sea, and they'll tell you it's a recipe for fun.
Join filmmaker and surfer Vince Deur on a road trip around the five Great Lakes to meet the surfers who have made surfing these stormy waters a way of life for 40 years.
Unsalted reflects an adventure of the spirit, it makes the case for unwavering optimism in the face of adversity,a nd it makes this landlocked group of surfers just a little better for it.
