Live to Sea - A saga that follows Freddie Meadows on his tireless quest along the rugged edges of Sweden, in search of the region’s greatest waves; one of the final frontiers within surfing.
"This journey has been long and beautiful. A journey that I feel in many ways has just begun; the majority of which remains undocumented due to the mystical nature and spontaneity of the Baltic Sea. It was early autumn of 2019, I was anchored behind an island when the name Live to Sea came to mind. It was the perfect description of what I do, of what all of us surfers do in some way. Live to Sea is for anyone and everyone who feels connected to the ocean, sea or any waters. For me this film is a tribute to the missions and moments that went unseen. Most importantly it is a tribute to the magic of nature and the sea. "
- Freddie Meadows
Today The Baltic Sea is in critical condition.
- it is considered one of the most polluted seas in the world.
It can still be saved but actions should be taken immediately.

every time you surf you´re transported in time to that very first day you fell in love with catching waves. this movie lets you feel that again too.
Absolutely beautiful story, and shot perfectly. Will be watching multiple times.
This is such a masterpiece. The color grading, filming, story telling, story itself. It’s incredible to be a part of this community, surfing is so unbelievably special. Great work.
Wtf who unliked this? Best surf video/story I've seen in a while.
Man every word was so touchable and very inspiringly thanks for that . Um abraco de Cascais Portugal .
This is so amazing brother! Everything about it is a 10/10. So proud of you
As a Swede just starting of to surf in the cold water around Denmark and Sweden this made me have such a big smile on my face. The whole 26 min.
The story telling was amazing!
Thank you so much!
I surf in Australia i am going to work in Sweden soon. Is there a surfing community?
So awesome! This video make you travel there! Thanks for the trip 💪
I can't believe this video has not a million views at least , absolutely top job
Great story / movie Freddie. congrats :)
Just stumbled on this video. Wow really impressed.
Jah bless brother 🐬🍃🙏🐬
What a nice story! Thanks for that beautiful video! Big up from Russia
Hatten av till alla som var med och gjorde denna vackra och väldigt personliga film. 🤙🏻
Tackar!!!!
Absolutely magic video brother. To have been alongside you on the path to it coming to fruition remains an honour. 💯
Awesome movie. We can feel the connexion you have with your land.
cool film
beautiful, thank you for sharing
Pure magic. Our beautiful country's perhaps best preserved secrets captured by a man on a mission. A must-see
Great cinematography! Really captures what it’s like to be a surfer in Sweden. Respect for sticking it out in Sweden and promoting surfing here. It’s easy to over glorify perfect, clean international waves on social media, much harder to turn the harsh, complex and unforgiving surf conditions of Sweden into a thing of beauty, nice job 👌
Congratulation ! Amazing Movie !
Beautiful story and images. Thank you foe sharing :)
Amazing surfing,, nice and perfect waves, so beautiful place ! U inspired me! Aloha!
Omg best ❤️thing which I watched in whole 2020 god bless u ❤️🙏🙏
Thanks for sharing your passion. 🙏🏾
This is a beautiful film. An intriguing portrait with an amazing sound design. I showed it to my students in the cinema at our film school. A fantastic experience on the big screen with full on cinematic sound system. Afterwards everybody just sat there in their seats totally blown away and spontaneous WOW´s slowly brought everybody back from the immersiveness of the film. Thank you very much for sharing your story.
wow this is amazing! glad you guys enjoyed it
unbelievable...so touching
Great video, magical and alluring, now you need a holiday here in Australia !!
Helt underbart vackert!
Heard of you from Oscar, thank him for your new fan ;)
i have to stop comparing with my own sense of "special" "brutal" and see the film in the context of limited experience, which is so cool and amazing
Amazing movie! Great surfing and great story. Very inspiring👍
Grym film
This deserves way more views. The videography and storytelling was beautiful. I wish to visit Sweden someday, it looks amazing!
So deeply deeply gratifying
Nice job Freddie, stay warm and stoked! From Jim, on the Telos trip. Say Hi to Pops for me.
That was an epic story :)
amazing. needs more views
Maaan thank you for this marvelous Northern Power!!!
stunning cinematography!
Undoubtedly the deepest and most captative surf film ever made. Phenomenal work.
You didn't hardly fall on your magical day! Of course you didn't! ....Your health scare and recovery is incredibly inspirational. On the surfing side, i think many of us have experienced something very similar, or nearly similar. In my case, i wasn't yet an experienced surfer. But on Labor Day weekend of '81, the north coast of Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine experienced and otherworldly east/southeast swell that lasted days. North Shore size on our outer bars, and points begetting reefs begetting points we didn't even know existed. You dream for that day/s. When it happens you surf your dream session--because you surfed it all your life in your mind. May your health and surfing continue to prosper, and inspire others. Aloha.
The most beautiful documentary on surf, and the spirit of it♥
Wow, that makes me want to dust off the boardies, jump in the Volvo and head across to the Baltic.
Thank you 🙌
That's the feeling I'm looking for the film I want to shoot! Well done Freddie!!!
truly a beautiful sport you can share with others all around the world! Great film!!
Amazing, mesmerizing, beautiful movie... Congratulations Freddie...
Third time watching it, exceptional.
One of the greatest surf films I've ever seen. The visuals, the story, everything was just amazing
Awesome!
Wow, so beautiful and inspiring!
Definitely one of the most beautiful surf movies I've ever seen
This is simply perfect, I watched it almost without blinking - story about something I would never think of being interested in. Warm greetings from Poland, I love listen to Gidge.
Epic documentary
Insane visuals and trippy soundtrack
Awesome Movie - My Family is from Sundsvall, Sweden
Inspirational Movie in every aspect. Great story, beautifully captured!
A masterpiece
love it thanks
Magic! Fin berättelse.
beautiful image, beautifuly shot. beautiful story with a soul. Very inspiring Bravo
The deepest sense of life and surfing. Emotionally the best surf movie ever.
Very well filmed, insane story, very good level in surf, what can we ask more ??
Absolutely captivaring. Fantastic filming and narrative (not to mention the surfing). Certainly captured that real essence of why we get out in the water.
Freddie you’re a total Legend and Inspirational person ❤️🙏🌊🏄🏻♂️💯
Asså wow. När Norrland kom på och vågorna va helt perfekta, vem visste att Svergie kunde bjuda på dethär. Ryser i hela kroppen, fantastisk film.
chunkothy tack så mkt!!!!! Kul att känslan nådde fram!
Happened to stumble on this one late night at a very low ebb in my life. Pure inspiration in many ways........:) A life dedicated to an unnamable calling not for material gain but the spiritual growth ever more valuable. Overcoming enormous doubt, and persevering no matter what Even when no one could possibly understand . Beautiful
Sending love to you great soul! Thank you for this wonderful example.
Fantastic movie with a great story and wonderful message 👏👍🤙🏄♂️. Thx
a lovely and well done film.
Most Gidge tracks I have heard outside of a Gidge Album. Love the film man!
Riktigt fin film! Fin surf och intressant att höra hur du blev frisk från sjukdomen på ditt eget sätt. Kroppens egen läkande förmåga är nästan lika storslagen som havet om man lyckas aktivera den
Man what an amazing film. As someone who wishes they surfed more and did video work more, this is just like a landslide of inspiration. I think one of the reasons I love films like this is because you get to look into someone's life and see what they're passionate about, and that always gets me fired up about life. Really beautiful man, 10/10.
Incredible movie! Very well realized, well done
Thank you for sharing your story with us! Everything about this movie will for sure inspire more people than you think!
Given the state of the surf industry this guy made the right choice to go from D grade QS journeyman to local celebrity. This is the future for most wannabe pros, you got to make your own way without the tour.
amazing story! amazing production!
Thank you for sharing your story Freddie. It was an absolute pleasure watching this beautiful movie, a true inspiration!
Very, very well done.
Fantastic, From the first minute to the last. Beautiful production!
This is a masterpiece!
Respect
Epic story yo! We grew up surfing in Cape Town, visiting sweden over the summers. I've searched the baltic for a wave but a handful of times. For some reason scoring anything that could potentially constitute a wave in the Baltic is as rewarding as scoring pits at Dunes. To score the kind of waves that you're after must be incredible. Hard to believe they exist.
Absolutely blown away by this, one of the best sport documentaries/portraits I’ve ever seen!
Marcus Ahlström Thanks Marcus! We take this comment to heart. Much apreciated.
That was a beautiful experience from start to finish. An inspiring story, told perfectly.
Remarkable
What a heartfelt story! And the visuals are just insane.
when 'Fredag' by Dungen kicks in, only goosebumps
Fantastic film. Well shot, incredibly well-edited, amazing story. Would never have known about this if it wasn't for you Freddie
Great photography.
Incredible peace of art !! Love it in every dimension Fredrik ! ❤️
Amazing work and story
Helt underbart vacker och sjukt inspirerande dedikation! tack tack tack tack tack för två tusen ton mer stoke att utforska mer av vår lilla surfpöl ❤️
Amazing brother. Your mindset is on point. Love from Portugal
A galatic film. Stupendously beautiful and inspirational, Thanks man!
The business and soul of surf-sport.
nice
amazing video
Tremendous
Amazing story, you're a pioneer for fiding and riding that wave! Keeping the true spirit of surfing alive...
