Kommetjie,<\/strong> Cape Town \u2013 Matt Bromley, a globally respected and revered big wave surfer, has released his surf movie <\/span>Over The Edge<\/span><\/u>. The film, a 54-minute documentary, tells the tale of just how Bromley became one of the best and most passionate big wave surfers in the world. Over the Edge follows Matt\u2019s two-year journey expanding the boundaries of his mental and physical ability through his surfing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Bromley has been chasing big waves for many years, jumping between Hawaii, California, Indonesia, South Africa, and Ireland. All to find the biggest waves he can find and push himself over the edge to catch and ride these behemoths.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Much of the movie focuses on Jaws, the big wave spot on Maui in Hawaii. “Jaws is the pinnacle of big wave surfing, and it has also been the pinnacle of my big wave career,” said Monster Energy rider Bromley. “It also includes the session I had at maxing Nias.” Bromley was surfing Sorake Beach on Nias Island in Indonesia when some of the biggest waves ever seen there exploded over the famous horseshoe-shape<\/span>d reef. <\/span><\/p>\n

The movie covers the drama of travelling through a COVID-ravaged world, and Bromley’s wife having a baby, all while he was in pursuit of that one bomb wave at Jaws. <\/span><\/p>\n

The unassuming Bromley is quick to point out that he is not simply some surfer filled with bravado but an analytical thinker. Bromley is someone who plans his big wave sessions carefully, including complex physical training as part of his planning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe more physically prepared you are, the more confident you are,\u201d says Matt. He laughs at the clich\u00e9 of big wave surfers being reckless cowboys. Instead, he adopts a highly analytical approach to chasing big waves, both in and out of the water.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I see a swell building on the charts, I try to break down and analyse every single element of the swell. Are the waves going to be increasing or decreasing on the day? What are the dangers at the spot I\u2019ve got my sights on? What are my lineups going to be? Is my equipment ready? I try to visualise the exact conditions that there are likely to be on the day and prepare accordingly.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Eliminating as many variables as possible allows you to take control of the situation, says Matt. Or, at least, as much control as you can have in amongst 50-foot seas.<\/span><\/p>\n
