Surfing and Snakes in Fiji |
| Travel Surfing: Surfing is, without a doubt, an art form that allows surfers a medium in which to express their feelings. Ever wonder what this art form looks like from the perspective of a fish? Since only a few breaks in world offer crystal clear water that allows a camera to capture this angle, HXS travels to Tavarua. The result is a rarely seen, surreal and peaceful view at waves and its artists from underneath. To complete the atmosphere, Hawaiian surfer Jeff Aisler transitions into the role of the ?Crocodile Hunter? television series- he and friends chase down deadly seasnakes at night for an on-hand inspection! |

Xtreme Surf Wipeouts / Crashes |
| All too often while watching surfing segments do we take for granted the incredible abilities of the men and women who drop into thick, boiling chasms of water on fiberglass-coated pieces of foam. This segment, a compilation of some of the absolute worst wipeouts we?ve captured on film over the years, ignites a certain appreciation for the guts-n-glory of the warriors who confront the potential danger in the waters off Hawaii, Fiji and California. Dan Moore, a tow-in pioneer from Hawaii, gives us some insight as to what its like when a mountain of water lands on your head. |

Surfing Fiji |
| Travel Surfing: Surfing in the tube is the ultimate goal for every surfer. This move becomes increasingly dangerous as wave heights increase, the water depth gets shallower and the reef comes into play. To be fearless in front of 20-foot wave faces, 14 miles from shore in the middle of the South-Pacific ocean, causes one to seriously questions the sanity of such a person. Elijah Young, Cully Kamasugi, Gavin Sutherland and Scott Fountain pull into insane barrels on this Fijian outer reef- heavy action segment. |

Skydive Swooping |
| Join Shaylan Allmen, a professional skydiver, as he shows us that there is more to skydiving than just jumping out of a plane. This surrealistic view of these athletes in the sky offers a multi-dimensional view of the earth 13,500 feet up as we fly at speeds of 180mph- even up to 323mph! We also follow some skydivers to big sky country Montana where they jump out of helicopters over snow-capped mountains. Anything is possible up there and these guys do an incredible job of stirring both interest and envy in our gravity-bound viewers. |
