Mega Glide

Matthew Allen's first foray into surf film. Bathed in light leaks and film grain, Mega Glide takes the psychedelic lighting that Allen captures in his Borrowed Light photo series and brings it to life, the light moving with and around surfer Shawn Parkin as he navigates the waves. The boys posted up at a local point break and former Surfer's Journal photo editor Parkin proceeded to smoothly glide his Deepest Reaches Megafish from the top of the point all the way to the sand, over and over again.
