- Thank You Mother is a cinematic journey of surfing, simplicity and appreciation. It is a film that isn't afraid to be beautiful, stylish and sincere. Produced by needessentials, this film by Torren Martyn and Ishka Folkwell that features an original soundtrack by Nick Bampton and narration by award winning Australian film maker and life long simplest Albert Falzon, who made the seminal 1970 surf film 'Morning of the Earth'.
'Thank You Mother’ was made four years ago and up until now has only been available to a small audience. The film began as a story about the act of creating a surfboard and the art of riding one, exploring the connection between surfer Torren Martyn and his friend, mentor and surfboard shaper Simon Jones of 'Morning of the Earth Surfboards'. This naturally led to the doorstep of another friend and mentor, Albert Falzon and the film became more about connection, creativity and friendship, about surfing, being happy, and living simply.
Shot on location in South Africa, Indonesia and Australia, Ishka Folkwell's original and artful approach to film making captures something of the essence of these places, bringing them to life on screen. Nick Bampton's original musical score was composed for the film, so as Torren Martyn glides with style and power, carving beautiful lines into clean walls, the music echoes the mood and rhythm of his movements perfectly. Perhaps the most powerful element of this creative collaboration between surfers, shapers, filmmakers and musicians is the truth and beauty of Albert Falzons reflections on life. With humility and charisma he offers viewers the keys to a life of contentment, explaining that happiness comes not from having more or being the best, but from having good friends and being kind. 'Thank You Mother' is a film that celebrates appreciation of the simple things and stays with viewers long after they have watched it.

I watch your films at 3:00 am every morning before work for 15 min it makes my day go so much better
Cheers
THIS WHAT YOU CALL SURFING, dancing with MOTHER NATURE, pure bliss, I'm 69 started surfing at 10 takes one back to those early days of surfing, a bit different to what the WSL gives us which revolves around only one thing "MONEY".
Such an amazing film. The words from Albert were impactful, I've watched it twice and saved. Simply beautiful
Effortless and hypnotizing, pure incarnation of style
Agreed. It’s almost spiritual
I can relate. I am 66 and still as stoked and passionate about surfing as I was when I was 11. You captured the vibe. Beautiful film.
Thanks again for the way u tell your story most grateful
Love your work it works well
Elements, poetry, surf and the fluidity style of Torren …❤️🌏🌊🏄♂️👭👬👫🤩so beautyfull 😘🤙
Such a cruisy surfer, a pleasure to watch
24:30 segement is the Transkei, Eastern Cape of South Africa. Super chilled and beautiful, raw place. Tribal locals prevent Westerners from building and gentrifying the area, it's great.
Thank you for this film, I really needed this experience in my life tonight
This is so much more than a surf video. Genuinely impactful words and so much meaning in this film. And bloody mental 10 minute backside monologue at the end
Thank you for making this beautiful film available 🙏🏼
Enjoyed watching the film. Thanks for including the backhand quota.
I rarely see him surfing back hand ,but whenever he does I get chocked by his back hand surf style.
Thank you guys for keeping the soul in surfing.
It feels that a like button isn't enough to show how amazing their movies are.
protect, respect and appreciate... she'll keep on givin 🤙🏻 ... awesome cinematography!
Super swell, thank you for sharing
Loved your movie 🎉
How great is God and his creations ❤
Another beautiful production from team Tishka, I didn’t want it to end. The surf, the tracks, the insights and philosophy. I had the pleasure of meeting Simon recently and I can tell you he practices the words he preaches here, he is as calm and kind of a soul as you can imagine. Keep this stuff coming, you guys are the future we need. ❤️🌈🤙🏼
One of the best surf films I have seen in a while! Thank you!
Thank for sharing this movie. It´s completely epic. The music, the storyteller is amazing and of course the surfer. I can show it to my child and say - it´s real soul surfing.
Bro noserides a short board and gets barreled! 🤯 So stylish! 🔥🤙
Pure soul and stoked living. Surf naturally high, no stressed style. Gracias amigo.

"... and that's the beauty of the ocean... it brings you right back into the present when you're riding a wave"

Amazing surfing, filming and company backing up what life/surfing is all about
Fantastic video, so inspired. Unreal
Love all around Love Love Love
An outstanding in-depth appreciation of the spiritual soul of the sport of
Kings …
As Albert puts it, It’s effortless and it brings great reward, being generous and open in no matter what form is indeed rewarding. To sense those rewards and to be also thankful must bring elevation to a frequency not too many experience. Thanks for this video and so long ago, MOTE. Loved watching Torren and Simon’s surfing. I had a board from Simon some years ago, it was a cracker. Good on all of you. Living what you speak is enviable..goods friends of Earth, mother.

Ishka and you are allways an inspiration.

FLOW MASTER. ☝️👌👍👍👍👍👍👍😉
Incredible! Thank you, needessentials 🤙
what a video, thank you for the inspiration
So much love for this. thanks :)
anyone spotted a shark 6:40??? Great content btw!
That was definitely not a dolphin! I reckon a white shark for sure.
Could be a whale lying on it's side? I've seen whales look like that.
Just from the intro alone, visceral… such style!!
torren makes the smallest boards look huge. i wish i could surf a tenth as good as him. but my expierences in the ocean have been so awesome also so i am happy :) :)
Great music
Amazing !! thanks so much for sharing
Well done
As a beginner I like watching him get into the wave 7:56, noticing his backfoot is closer to inside rail
Freakin amazing. The statement made me stop and think where am I going. Quite deep.
He's great biggggg
Thank you bro!
Another awesome video. Camera work A+
What a beautiful film to watch. Loved the tights scenes riding waves. Ive saved this, definitely replaying many times to come.
shot shit anyone else seen that massive fin at 6:41
Rad..Keep Posting.
better intro than 90 procent in hollywood.
love the vids of the footwork.
finally i see shapers with actually good masks that really filter the air.
What boards do you ride ?
So beautiful. Loved it!
You guys inspire and stoke me so much.
Thank you!
super style!
Was that a shark fin at 6:41? Massive as 😮
30:30 on is pure magic, that is what it’s all about
The placement of his back foot is very interesting.
Same. He rides that rail with his big flippers.
Cuz he's trying to pressure the rail to project down the line and keep speed through turns. Not crank of the bottom to go vertical and cutback to blow off speed.
@@hanaleisurfcompany9312 I get it. That’s normal on a surf sup but is very unusual on a surfboard though.
@@hanaleisurfcompany9312 zui zu z t zu Habe ich habe zuz tu das
Great
Too high but so worth it(that last blast)😋
Transcendental
Thank you world
Thank you again! You make the best surf videos! Was wondering if you could provide any details about the board you were riding in the final scene? The one you were riding backside, you looked maybe the most comfortable on that one
40:33 aww yeah!
Hi guys! Here JP from Buenos Aires. First congrats for this amazing lovely film. I was wondering if there is any chance to get the Spanish subtitles on this video???. Lots of people from Southamerica and other places might be loosing the chance to cacht up this lovely work!!
36:59 smoooooove!
the ultimate
Anyone else get the feeling Torren met the devil on a dusty back road and traded his soul for perfect surfing? How else do you get that good?
Edit: Actually it's probably reaching a level of zen enlightenment through good living and meditation. Got it.
Good stuff starts at 6:40.
Is that a shark fin right then?
@@Through-the-gift-shop right? Surprisingly no mention in the comments
Crazy
@@Through-the-gift-shopbeen trying to figure that out myself and your comment is the only other one about! It doesn’t match a white shark shape. And looks absolutely massive back there. Hammerhead or nurse shark are the profiles it matches but the size unreal
@needessentials would love to know what boards you're using in the vid (size, width, vol) I like the way you guys ride. Thanks! 🤙
dope as bra
Wait, is that a shark fin at 6:39?
At 6:40sec can anyone tell what that is in the waves in the top left corner?
yewwwww
What size is the "Massive" in the main opening session? Thanks Torren and Ishka, great film!
Thanks Michael that’s a 7’9 massive
you don't surf you can fly on the waves !
Hey! What was that big fin in the water at about 6:30min into the video? It was massive!!
Me too😊
Is that a giant shark fin out the back at 6 mins 41 seconds of this video? 😮🦈
Anyone know the size of the board????
Man, can this cat read a wave.
Tarintino intro vibes
Mmm butter
It looks like Aido .... SBNPO !!!!!!!!!
is that a shark? 6:40
Huge whatever she is. Fin movement looks sharky though...
