Bra Boys - The movie

Ours

Bra Boys surf a crazy slab in Australia called Ours. Waves break over the rocky headland which results in some heavy tubes and even heavier wipeouts. Surfers get ragdolled into the rocks, watch till the end to see the consequences. Not nice.

Bra Boys - The movie

Tat - Bra Boys(from the Culture gallery)

The surfing of Ours is taken from the movie called Bra Boys. Movie directed by Sunny Abberton and Macario De Souza talks about the inner-Sydney beachside suburb of Maroubra and the story of the tattooed and much maligned surf brotherhood known as the Bra Boys. This is not an ordinary surf flick with bunch of beautiful barels, tropical islands and sunny beaches. The trailer looks like it was filmed in a war, gangfights, police, blood, fire, riots. The film also exposes the story of the Abberton brothers. Their mother was a heroin addict and surfing became their escape from drugs, poverty and violence. Two years ago, Abbertons became entangled in a court case resulting from the death of a notorious Sydney underworld figure Anthony Hines. Older brother, Jai Abberton was acquitted of the murder earlier this year even though he admitted shooting Hines. You can find the interview with younger Koby Abberton, where he talks about the trial, his life and stuff here.

Watch the trailer for Bra Boys.
