Watch: Ch11’s Sixth Volume Of ‘Shit Waves’

Mediocre meteorology, high quality talent.

10 years ago, Mini Blanchard and Dane Reynolds released their final edit on Marine Layer Productions — a channel that had gathered thousands of cultlike followers.

On the announcement post we made, commenter Jelly Occy wrote simply, “I’d rather shit in my hand and clap than spend the rest of my life without marinelayer.”

His comment topped the list with countless upvotes, as a tremor of sorrow trembled through the global surf community. 

Marine Layer was proof that we don’t need polished surf movies. Sloppy footage of Dane Reynolds’ everyday sessions are more than enough to cull the appetites of the surf starved masses.

Fortunately, seven years later, Dane’s unfiltered missives returned, with a new name.

Shit waves, good surfers.

Thank you Dane, and thank you Chapter 11 TV.
