  • '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.

    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.

    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. 🌝❤✌👍

    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.

    Certainly demonstrates how good wetsuits are now. I began surfing in the early 70s in a location where winter water temps got to about 12/14 Celsius, nothing as cold as this. Yet we still froze, couldn’t button cloths up before riding my bicycle home after a session.

    Nate, pro-tip, keep your frequent flyer miles on one Airline i.e. United. I have flown 1.1M miles on United or 40X around the world. Once you hit the Million Mile flyer mark, you'll have lifetime Premier Gold Status which entitles you to free economy plus seat upgrades, two pieces of free check-in bags weighing up to 70 pounds each, and painless upgrades to business class. You can also share your flying status with another person. I just came from a roundtrip from San Francisco to Japan and flew business class both ways for $3300. There are quantifiable advantages to keeping you frequent flyer miles on the same airline.
