Torren Martyn - NORDURLAND - An arctic surfing adventure - needessentials

'Nordurland' is a film about going surfing in the harsh, cold waters of the North Atlantic. It follows three friends from the subtropical northern rivers of NSW Australia, surfers Torren Martyn and Laurie Towner, as well as needessentials founder and designer Ryan Scanlon as they travel to isolated, snow covered coastlines in search of remote waves. Filmmaker Ishka Folkwell, beautifully captures these vast and stunning landscapes on screen. Set to an original soundtrack composed for the film by Headland, glaciers, mountains and powerful icy surf all come to life in this adventure to the far north. Torren Martyn's narration throughout the film offers a personal reflection on the trip and a real glimpse into the challenges and rewards of traveling to frozen, distant lands in search of surf.

wow, this level of epicness actually motivated me to clean my room up. awesome

[@lindiak007]

Good idea felt the same , need to clean up my winter gear

[@SnailerHD]

I am left speechles once again. The cinematic compisition combined with Torren's wise and simply truthful words capture my complete attention and fully immerse me throughout the whole piece. Thank you Ishka, Torren and Laurie for, once again, not just another surfing video but rather a creatively meaningful piece of art that enrichens our surfing community. Much love and respect. Noah

[@nicholastown2779]

couldn't agree more.Fantastic cinematography and narration throughout!

[@technes2012]

Cool dude

[@kevinrice4887]

lol

[@mathewjardini315]

Every single one of Torren's surf movies are a work of art. Thanks to everyone involved that make these happen. The vibe is right. High frequency

[@antoniogodinho948]

One of the best surfing films I have ever watched. Truly inspiring. Congratulations!

[@patricknoveski6409]

Ishka's photography is so amazing. Plus its so good to see core surfers. Not a contest in sight. Right on Needasentals.

[@kylewattssurfing3266]

Nicccccceeeee yeeeeeeaaaaaaahhhhh!!!!!!!!

[@laurentpk]

Never saw an 'upside down waterfall' before. Incredible cinematography. Joy to watch. These guys make it look easy but don't be fooled... Surfing in such a remote area and in VERY cold temperatures is very dangerous. I used to surf in winter here on Long Island but never encountered huge globs of ice floating around me! Kudos to all involved with the making of this film. Love the original score... Great stuff. 🌝❤✌👍

[@MoustacheCloud]

I would be afraid of killer whales.

[@brucebanner8139]

Here are some horses. Ok back to the waves. Here are more horses. Waves. Oh look, horses. Waves, horses, horses running. Waves. Horses up close. Waves. Love this video.

[@rudimuller3869]

I love the composition of music and video! Just perfect!

[@desmondjones2181]

The way Torren cuts across at 9:42 is incredible. 9/10 people would have been caught by the white water. Amazing video, surfing, and landscapes. I love the ocean so much, I can't imagine growing up in a landlocked country.

[@NikkoYM]

Taking a break at 18:40 This is so lovely, and the music selection is more calm than in many other surfing movies/videos which I appreciate. I do wish there was a music-free option as well - with just the sounds of the surf.

[@andreasjohannes8078]

Amazing surfing Video hands down to all the boys getting it done!! 🙌🙌🤙🤙

Cinematic as the previous commentator, Noah, says and the music perfectly suits the cold white / blue arctic palette. Sections of the music remind me of Olafur Arnalds or Nils Frahm?
